July Earnings of a Small Fish Are you also wondering if your small pile of hard earned crypto's can be increased without doing too much for it? Don't worry it's not just the big fish in the sea and the crypto whales that can accumulate free coins! July was a pretty good month Even though I have been super busy (quit my job and moving tomorrow) I have had quite a good month in July. The markets picked up again leaving me back in the green with my portfolio (yay!) and I have…

New Start: Moving to a New City I have told you all in previous posts that I have switched jobs and with that switch also came a move! After a looooong search for a house we finally found a new place in Alkmaar and moved last weekend! Our Lives in Boxes It is funny how much more stuff you acquire quickly. Me and my partner are both cheapskates haha so most of the stuff we own we got for free from friends or for cheap at the second hand shop. All nice and well until you have…

CakeDeFi: Bonus to Match Input Last week I read this article on PublishOx about Cake DeFi. It stated that you would currently (till August 13) get a $50 sign up bonus for a $50 deposit. That is a pretty amazing return and for once a sign up bonus that is achievable for a small fish like me, that doesn't have thousands of dollars to deposit. So I decided to check it out! It was worth it and I wanted to share my experience with you!…

Movie Review: Fatherhood- Kevin Hart Shows a Different Side You might know Kevin Hart as a stand-up comedian or as the host of many award shows. In his latest movie Fatherhood, Hart shows that he has much more he is capable of then just being funny! The Story- No Spoilers So this movie managed to make me cry within 5 minutes, I think this must be a record. It starts out super sad with Matt's (Kevin Hart) wife dying at the birth of their little girl Maddy. Completely…

Our Very Own Festival When the pandemic hit last year we were very disappointed as a group of friends that there would be no festivals. We had been going to festivals together for years! When it dawned on us: could we organize our own festival, compliant with the rules, just for us as friends? The answer was yes and just now we had edition two as this pandemic ruined yet another festival summer! Welcome to Feest!val 2021! What On Earth Is This? So it turns out that saying…

Why Don't We Save the Planet We Are Destroying? So this week the IPCC Climate Report was released giving off a Code Red for humanity. The interesting thing is that the report didn't tell us anything we didn't know. It's main conclusions hadn't changed since the last report, the calculations just got more precise. It described a bleak future: if we met all our climate goals we might just be able to keep it to heating up the planet with 1.5 degree Celsius. But hotter it will…

Pembrokeshire: Stunning Coast of Wales In the summer of 2019 we took our van to Wales to roam around for 4 weeks. When we got to Pembrokeshire we were flabbergasted: a beautiful piece of coast line in Wales that had everything you could ever want: sun (very rare in Wales), sea, castles, outdoor activities and quaint villages. We fell in love! It was easy to find places to park up the van for free, like the picture above shows where we had an amazing view of the sea and the…

As Crypto Soars: Are You Taking Profits? Crypto has been booming so far in August and many portfolio's that turned red after May are now turning green again. This of course brings the age old question: **What are you going to do with your earnings?** I'd like to put a couple of options in a row for you and tell you what I am deciding to do. This of course is no financial advice and always do your own research! I would love to also hear what you are planning to do! **Take…

Fantasy Football League: Gameweek 1 I decided this football season to join the one of the most popular platforms for football fans: The Fantasy Football League (FFL) which currently has more than 7 million people involved online! What is FFL? Well the concept is pretty simple, you, the manager of your own fantasy football team are given 100 million pounds to pick players from the Premier League in your team. These players gather points based on how well they do in the…

A Weekend of Cycling and Spa So as I promised in my post since moving to another part of the Netherlands I would keep you all up to date with exploring my new province! And after this weekend I have plenty to update you guys on! A Day at the Beach We decided to start the weekend on Thursday with a nice ride through the dunes with a good friend who happened to be in the neighborhood. Alkmaar (the new hometown) is about 10km from the dunes and the beach, but we decided to make…

When Kids Don't Listen I Use Memes... I am quite new to the whole meme-making thing, but I got really into it last year. I am a teacher and like everyone I had to deal with working from home and let me tell you: it is even harder to make kids do their homework at home than at school! I grew more and more frustrated with time and it was time for a solution... I started out sending reminders to all the kids that didn't hand in their homework. But the response I got was pretty…

Fantasy Premier League: Gameweek 2 Hi everyone! How has gameweek 2 gone for you?

Final Weekend of the Vacation Man what a week. I started work again Monday (and a new job at that) and I am poooped. Didn't have time until now to post something about last weekend, my last vacation weekend! The Vacation Even though I am blessed with long summer vacations (I work in education), they always seem to fly by and this one was no different with a move, a festival and a camping trip packed in. So last weekend it was here: the final weekend of the vacation. I went…

Solo Travelling on the Isle of Skye In the summer of 2018 I was going through a phase of unemployment, but I had a little bit of money and thought why not use this time to take a trip? So after seeing my mom in Scotland I decided to drive over to the Isle of Skye, all the way in the west of Scotland for some solo camping and hiking! I drove over to Dunvegan at the western end of the Isle and settled on a beautiful spot, where I pitched my tent and looked over the water. The…

Fantasy Premier League Gameweek 3 Another week and another game week in the Premier League! For those of you not familiar with Fantasy Football: you make your own team consisting of players in the Premier League. You are on a budget of course and so you must make smart choices. You then get points based on how well those players do that week in real life! So last week was not a great week for me, performing under the average amount of points. And this week.... was way worse!…
