It’s been an emotional time. But I wrote a lot of Unison, which was always fun. I also hosted Amsterdam casual FP meetups and met a lot of great FP enthusiasts. I visited Rotterdam several times to prepare for my move.
The housing struggles took quite a bit of time and energy, however, I hope these challenges will pay off in the end - for a better life and better work.
By the way, I moved to Rotterdam in October. Please let me know if you’re ever in the area. Thank you all so much for your support!
