Weekly Reads – April 27th

Welcome to this week’s Weekly Reads! I hope everyone is staying healthy and sane but also with a bit of motivation for going after your goals – whether they are career, fitness or lifestyle related. My work from home weeks are rather uneventful so there is nothing new to brag about, other than the fact that spring is in full […]

Weekly Reads – April 20th

This week has been rather uneventful. I am happy to have managed to squeeze in quite a few workouts – four to be more precise – and that gives me hopes that I can be an active person again. We use the Beat81 online classes – I used to attend the classes offline and I have to say the guys […]

Weekly Reads – April 14th

I have skipped the previous week of Weekly Reads because we spent the weekend celebrating the birthday of the man – which despite the quarantine, we managed to make it fun and even a bit social with some video calls and drop by visits by our window – and I could not bring myself to finishing the reads in time. […]

Weekly Reads – March 30th

Not too much novelty in my life during the past week. I have been working pretty much non stop. I had a major deliverable on Thursday – which went pretty well! – so I spent the week glued to my desk chair. Even with all of that, I keep being so grateful that I am able to work from home […]

Weekly Reads – March 23rd

It’s been a full week of working from home and practising social distancing, and to be honest, I am enjoying this work from home time. I have shared in an Instagram post why I am wholeheartedly embracing & enjoying these times. First of all, I am fully aware that we are so blessed to be able to work from home […]

Weekly Reads – March 16th

Last week the whole world felt the scale of the havoc caused by COVID-19 and a lot of countries started taking serious measures by closing down offices and shutting non-essential businesses such as shops, bars or restaurants. We were already working from home most of the previous week as a precaution, but as of last Friday, our whole company is […]

Weekly Reads – March 9th

Not much happened last week but the week went as expected. The start was pretty busy in terms of work and required a couple of late work nights while the second part of the week I spent it working from home, which served as a reminder that it can be both good and bad. On the one hand, I enjoy […]

Weekly Reads – March 2nd

This past week has been quite uneventful. I am looking forward to my visit home at the end of April – can’t count the days fast enough – and I am also quite excited for spring to arrive. I can feel the general mood brightening up and the sun showing up every day a little bit more and I am […]

Weekly Reads – February 26th

Last week has been pretty good in terms of work. The highlight of the week is definitely a successful meeting I had with a client and one of their VPs – this being one of the biggest organizations in the world – where the presentation I did was on point. Funnily enough, it was focused on an area where I […]

Weekly Reads – February 17th

Welcome to the mid-February Weekly Reads, because time is flying! 12% of the year has already passed and I am not sure I can say where the first month and a half of the year went. Nonetheless, February is treating me kind of well so I cannot complain much. This weekend I picked up my blue light blocking glasses and […]

Weekly Reads – February 10th

Last week has been not too fast and not too slow. I am the type of person that likes to be running around and solving problems at work. While I do enjoy the more chilled days as well every now and then, I usually thrive on solving critical situations. However, more relaxed days mean that I could squeeze in 4 […]

Business casual office outfits for winter

I almost feel like I have a tradition, posting a few office outfits ideas that inspire me for the current season. I skipped fall but truth is, there was not much of a fall season in Berlin so I could say I had to transition directly to winter temperatures. Since winter is not quite done yet, I think this post is […]

Weekly Reads – February 3rd

How is it February already? January literally flew by. While I am quite happy with how the month went down – I got to start the year by focusing on forming/deepening some good habits such as exercising, meal prepping or (almost) daily yoga  – I do feel like the month went by a tad too quickly. It was also my […]

What a week and weekend! I had a lovely three day weekend to celebrate my birthday and squeezed it all in, from touristing Berlin from am to pm, to brunch with friends and an amazing birthday dinner – I enjoyed every single moment of it. I am already planning my next three day weekend because a mini holiday is too […]

Weekly Reads – January 20th

What a week! I’ve somehow had what felt like a looong work week, though it wasn’t extremely painful nor too stressful just a tad too unpredictable and unstructured. Nonetheless, I’ve survived it thanks to the 40% discounts on my Uber rides to work so I could work out in the mornings and make it to the office early enough to […]
