Status Report - Week 9 2026

Mar 2, 2026

Real life

We had an AWESOME week in Alpe d'Huez, enjoying a lot of snow and sun - we probably saw 3 clouds in the whole week...

It's the first year none of the kids is attending ski school, which removes time constraints and brings a lot of freedom. It was really great to ski as a family, and enjoy quieter times on the slope (e.g. during lunch break).

Here are a few pictures I took this week:

From the top of Sarenne, at 3330m (notice the quantity of snow!) From the top of Sarenne

The last picture this year... Last view before the end

In terms of reading, I finished reading The art of happiness - a very good read that makes me want to explore buddhism a bit more.

I did not run, but (obviously) skied quite a bit - 219.26 km (!). And I decided to take a break at GeoGuessr, and not do anything but play the Daily Duel to keep my streak.
