I was now having a walk through some old pictures and this one just popped up. That's my second Honda VTR 250 that I owned, a total compulsive buying that gave me a great satisfaction and made me very sad to say goodbye to. A toy. A cheap canvas. I invested a little bit on her, mecanically and stetically.
I'd like to write some lines about her one today.
A year ago in June, when our daughter made 3 months, we jumped into our van and started our #ElternzeitTour2023, the second half of my parental leave: 3 months to slowly drive from #Düsseldorf to #Barcelona and back to visit my parents and let them meet our baby.
That was around 7000 kms, and we got to know plenty of campings, some of them we enjoyed a lot and some of them we simply could not wait to leave behind. With a wish to register them for the future and for others, we crafted this list that contains their reference, price and some personal opinions.
I usually mention that #Spain is just a puzzle of cultures that (push to) exist by themselves, and then may appear the #separatist sentiment.
Today an interesting map (apparently) from 2020 just crossed paths with me, and I intend to keep it at hand for these occasions that I'd like to bring the #multiculturality that actually builds this country.
Lately I am getting good at cooking a typical “truita de patates” how we call it in Catalunya, “tortilla de patatas” how they call it in Spain, or “Spanish omelette” how I discovered it is called internationally. I took a family receipt, some tips and tricks around, and evolved my own receipt that brings a delicious omelette with potatoes and onions as a base.
In a recent team breakfast I promised to some of my peers that I'll share my receipt, so here it goes 😋
Aquest va ser un dels primers acords amb la parella quan vam descobrir que estava embarassada. Voliem saltar a la carretera el màxim de temps possible, i això (més o menys) és el que farem a partir de demà o demà passat.
Em ve de gust escriure quatre línies sobre el tema, com a fita assolida, i com a visió del que ve en els propers 3 mesos.
LaDragonera.com és el primer domini que vaig registrar ara deu fer uns 20 anys. Ha passat per diferents fases, essent reciclat al llarg d'aquest temps per donar nom a diferents projectes de la meva fornada.
Ara presenta una instància Pixelfed on publico fotos pròpies, servit des d'una Raspberry Pi des de casa.
Que em coneix sap els meus gustos musicals, i que sóc de la generació que va descobrir Queen quan en Freddie va morir. Rondava el 1990 quan per la tele van posar el Barcelona amb la Montserrat Caballé, i jo vèia el meu pare excitat amb el Mercury. Qui serà aquest pàio? Quins crits, no?
La temporada del Nadal 2022 ha passat. A nivell personal això marca una fita. I tot un nou món acaba i un altre està a punt de començar. Encara tancant alguns temes, vull aprofitar aquest moment de calma entre tempestes per reflexionar una mica de tot, el que ha passat i el que vindrà. Atenció, vomitada mental ahead.
I gave myself a Xmas present: a new case for my reMarkable 2. The original one handled some disgraces pretty well but it was not cool anymore to walk around with such a destroyed one. I found a nice one in Amazon and I am pretty happy with the result. Here I intend to do a quick review about it.
Seria cap al final del 2002 quan vaig obrir ladragonera.com. Internet Archive només té traces des de Febrer del 2003, què hi farem. Ja des del principi estava orientada a ser una extensió online de les burrades que fèiem amb la colla de Talamanca. L'Esteve, el Sergi i jo saltàvem de fricada en fricada, i la meva sempre era mantenir una comunitat online. Allò va durar el que va durar, i no recordo molt bé com o per què va acabar, però parlem de fot 20 anys, i en ASP pur contra una DB en un arxiu MS Access.
