Only three working days after being at Devoxx UK (in London) last week, my vacation (in London) was scheduled to begin. Therefore, flying home was out of the question. Instead, I spent these three working days in Lille – because a cozy apartment in the city center there is cheaper than a small single room on the outskirts of zone 2 of the Tube in London (even when including the train journey from and to London).

Workation on the Canary Islands
In fall 2022, I tried out something new: I combined (a bit over) three weeks of vacations with (a bit under) three weeks of teleworking. In total, I spent six weeks on the Canary Islands – more precisely, on Gran Canaria and Tenerife.

My second week of teleworking from Los Gigantes was basically very similar to the first one. The main difference is that it was shorter: I am already flying home today (ie. on Thursday). Other than that, I spent my free time again with swimming and watching the sunset. Continue reading A second (work) week in Los Gigantes

A (work) week in Los Gigantes
After my vaction, it is time for teleworking again. This time, I am based in Los Gigantes on the (South) West coast of Tenerife. Compared to my first work week in Gran Canaria, I may have explored the area a bit less, and concentrated more on swimming in the sea – but that is nothing to complain about, especially in mid-November.

A (work) week in Las Palmas
I spent the last five days teleworking from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. However, I also enjoyed my free time in the (late) afternoons. Continue reading A (work) week in Las Palmas

Kick-off to a Workation on the Canary Islands
I am trying something new: I am combining work with vacation. So, I am spending the next six weeks on the Canary Islands – a bit over half of that on vacation, and the remainder working remotely. Continue reading Kick-off to a Workation on the Canary Islands
