Wanna expand your airport but there’s no room? In LA they just tear down an entire neighbourhood. I don’t think this would be considered an acceptable solution for Schiphol‘s issues.

The V&A Dundee museum, you know, the one that looks like a boatis now officially open!

My new obsession: House of Talent, a real life soap series in which 8 talented young musicians compete against themselves and each other in hopes of establishing a musical career.

Listened to – Music

I’ve mostly been listening to whatever was being performed on House of Talent. Which, strangely enough for a show that claims to want to help co-create and launch original artist, are mostly covers.

Listened to – Podcasts

Only Dutch podcast De Machine, where I picked up on the whole House of Talent phenomenon.

Watched – Films and Documentaries

None! I obviously watched way too many episodes of House of Talent.

Watched – TV and Youtube
