Translator, interpreter, girlbossing close to the sun ❤️‍🔥
Thank you #library lenders in NL for borrowing my translations on granny squares, sewing, watercolouring, Minecraft building, vegetarian cooking and that chicklit trilogy I totally forgot what it's about... Despite hardly doing any book translations, I still appreciate the #royalties

A bit of stress on the last leg of the grand tour due to broken-down train, but I was on time! Appointment finished early and normal train service has resumed, so already zooming back to Leeuwarden… 🚂

Tsk, metal guitar solos sound ugly when you hear them second-hand via someone listening too them too loud on their headphones - are you okay mate?

When on the day you have a tour of NL planned, copper thieves turn it into a grand tour - adding an hour onto my journey time. Luckily my schedule allows it!

Tiling the splashback today. But the primer now has to dry for an hour. Okay… Coffee and newspaper it is… 😇

I was so proud of my McGyver, but even though the lights are on, there’s nobody home - cycling on an e-bike without support is a proper gym session …

Yess, the mist has cleared in Harkema! Now a short break as the next speaker is Dutch and we don’t need interpreting from #frysk

Arrived at my #interpreting job at Harkemase Boys - football pitch largely invisible due to the mist…

Back from #2025TEF - tired but full of information and new insights

I hope the student who couldn't pay for his chocolate cookie, so MommyMe paid it for him, enjoys it. Today is a crap train day, so everyone deserves a cookie. Karma points +1 :-)

Arrived. It is too hot here lol, so my pink sweater is giving me a red face lol - I was just in time for the coffee and sweets

And back on the train. Hoping the journey to Brussels will be smoother than yesterday….

Upside: I got home. Downside: I got home almost 2 hours later than planned due to a signal failure en route. But: home. And tomorrow morning: on the train again! 💤

Democracy in action. Votes are being counted. Caught them at a quiet moment ..

You can't make it up: "Verschil tussen PVV en D66 nu 1984 stemmen". An Orwellian or utopian future? WE decide...

Vandaag #stemmen? Yes we can! Kies een mooie combi van partij en persoon en kleur het vakje rood 🔴 2/27

Rechtse partijen hadden de kans om niet óver maar mét moslims te praten, tijdens het verkiezingsdebat De Stem van Moslims. Maar ze bleven weg, woensdag in Den Haag. Juist door hun afwezigheid kreeg het publiek een debat met diepgang en nuance. ‘Het was kalm, inhoudelijk en kritisch.’
Debat zonder radicaal-rechts verademing voor moslims: ‘Hier had ik behoefte aan’

VAT mission accomplished. Submitted and paid. Back to earning money to pay more VAT next quarter...

Q3 VAT submission time! To motivate myself, I ordered a new mobile phone. And to treat myself, I took the bus instead of cycling through the storm :-) #selfcare

Today, I have decided, my commute (train, bus, train) will be bookish. Yes, this is Katabasis.
