After a long and slightly chaotic week, my boyfriend and I decided to spend Sunday at a hotel and wow, it was exactly what we needed. Peace and quiet, a huge bed, everything clean, and our own private bathroom… I could’ve cried from happiness. Honestly, it might’ve been a mistake to treat ourselves like that, because now we’re completely spoiled and kinda want to escape to a hotel every weekend. Oops.
Coming back on Monday felt rough. The contrast hit hard. From peaceful hotel vibes straight back into our overstuffed apartment. Eight people, squeaky bunk beds that feel like they’re one shift away from collapsing (they’re literally children’s beds), and wardrobes that fall apart when you open them. Plus, the place gets messy faster than you can blink. Still, Monday was a public holiday, so at least we could take it slow and continue resting. My boyfriend was feeling much better by then, which was a relief.
Tuesday, it was back to work. Christina (yes, I’ve been spelling her name wrong this whole time… sorry Christina!) and I finished our shared Google Docs draft and started building our presentation with Gamma AI. I had no idea AI tools were already this advanced. The whole process was super smooth and fun to work with.
The next day, I continued polishing the presentation and added some screenshots, just like Rafa had asked. After work, my boyfriend and I went into the city for a little outing. I had heard about a cookie place called „Keksy“ and wanted to give it a try (it was okay, not mind-blowing). While walking around, we randomly stumbled across a huge indoor market. My boyfriend even tried oysters for the first time and he didn’t hate them, which was a pleasant surprise!
Later, we aimed to check out a burger spot called HUNDRED. We didn’t want to barge in right when they opened, so we aimed to go a bit later – turns out, that was a mistake. When we arrived about 30 minutes after opening, the place was already packed. So, we settled for a nearby ramen spot instead – not a bad backup plan at all.
