"textContent": "Woah! It's that time of the month again. June has gone by very fast, full of activity, travel, and a - way too hot for The Netherlands - heatwave. Let's look back and reflect on everything that has happened this past month! ✍️ Website I've made a few updates to the AT Protocol integration of this website. Because I haven't posted a lot recently, I hadn't noticed that there was a very annoying bug that I introduced the month prior. That bug was preventing the syndications to correctly be saved on the posts. Other than that, I also updated the syndication of the photos to Bluesky to use the new gallery format, which supports up to 10 photos, instead of just the 4 photos of a default embedding. Can't wait to use it, but haven't had a reason yet! 🍄 Life Quite a few things have happened, but I want to focus on Portugal! Chris and I went a week to Portugal, passing through Lisbon, my hometown, and then Faro. We met with some friends, Chris met a lot of people from my family that he hadn't met yet, and we also went to the wedding - for which I had to drive! - of a friend of mine. It was so pretty! 4,00€ Breakfast in Lisbon Delicious Pasteis de Nata It was nice to be back in Portugal, even though it was for quite a short trip. Unfortunately I don't have that many vacation days left this year, especially considering the visits that I've received and that I'm yet to receive. So the chance that I'll travel this year is quite low. Maybe for a weekend. 💪 Health Things are generally going well. I thing my wrist is a bit better? At least I've had less complaints. I still can't put my whole body's weight on it, but seems generally fine. Swimming lessons are also going great, and I'm almost getting my second diploma. This month I also went swimming for the first time in a 50 meter swimming pool. What a length! I think it's easy to underestimate how long 50 meters is, especially for an unexperienced swimmer. Went there again today and did 800 meters. Bit tiring, but nice! 🍿 Entertainment This month was calmer when it comes to entertainment, but we still managed to see a live show! We went to Soldaat van Oranje, which is a Dutch play based on an autobiographic book of a resistance hero during WW II. The play has been running since 2010, and 2026 is the last year. When it comes to movies, we watched Mother Mary, Hoppers, and Disclosure Day. I absolutely loved the last one, but as with every film I love, the rating on IMDb is not that high. I would be interested in seeing a sequel. Finally, we watched quite a few series, or at least finished quite a few seasons: The Testaments, For All Mankind, Amsterdam Centraal 24/7, Your Friends & Neighbors and Widow's Bay. If I had to choose just one, I probably couldn't. I really enjoyed all of them, in different ways. For the train fans, I'd definitely recommend the documentary series about Amsterdam Centraal. It's very enjoyable! That's a wrap! It was a very eventful month even though I didn't write that much this time. I think being a bit tired from swimming today isn't helping. Anyways, until next time!",
