This month’s topic of the IndieWeb Carnival is “cycles and fluctuations”. This is my third time participating in this initiative, and I think this topic couldn’t have come at a better time. I’m not one hundred percent sure where this is going, but I want to start with politics.
The Netherlands is amidst a turbulent election, where a progressive party and a far-right party are headed to have the same amount of seats in the parliament. And this is with around 17% of the votes each, it’s not even a big majority. Nevertheless, I want to focus on voter turnout.
It is warm. Or, should I say, very hot? It is very hot 🔥! For the past few days, the maximum temperature outside has been hovering 30C in the south of the Netherlands. Here in Eindhoven we have, officially, a 80 to 100% chance of a heatwave. I think that’s a yes.
In just about a few weeks, I will be able to commemorate - if I want - my 5th anniversary in The Netherlands. The Netherlands: the country where I came to study, and where I decided to continue my life. But how did I end up here?
Soon, when the weather starts warming up again, I’m surely going to miss this sort of days. To be honest, I already do as they’re not very common around here.
Some sheep found roaming the fields of the Stratumse Heide.
Three simple pictures I took during a walk in the Stratumse Heide. It’s already starting to look somewhat like autumn, which I appreciate. I also haven’t used my camera for quite some time, so I’m very happy I brought it with me. I went there hoping to see highlander cows. Sadly, I didn’t see them this time, but I saw some of their… manure 💩.
There were some things I did not photograph because a thunderstorm was becoming closer and closer. Therefore, we thought it’d be safer to start leaving.
The fall is settling down in Strijp-S.
Some months ago I went to Leiden, took some pictures and stored them in my hard drive. However, I’ve used some of these as wallpapers lately, such as the one with the fish 🐟. I thought it would be nice to share as I think they’re quite pleasant!
Some pictures of the Strijp-S district in Eindhoven.
