    Haut fält et mer schwéier op englesch ze schreiwen, sou dass ech dëse Bäitrag op lëtzebuergesch tippen. Well ech samschdes dee ganzen Dag Formatioun hat, huet sech mäi Weekend zimlech kuerz ugefillt. Ech hu sonndes du vum angenehme Wieder profitéiert a mol rëm e längeren Trëppeltour iwwer d’Gewan gemaacht. Als Podcast fir ënnerwee hunn ech ee Virtrag vum Jordan B. Peterson gelauschtert.
