John Olinda So what are you working on this week? I'm wrapping up the last week of teaching and getting ready for a visit to the United States.

Martijn Going to check out a studio flat later this week to hopefully finally start planning the move closer to my job.

John Olinda Going to be walking/biking distance at the new place?

Martijn Biking distance. Currently it is an almost 2 hour train-bus commute.

John Olinda Wow, that's got to be draining. I have a couple students who commute that distance and most of them have ended up moving closer or had to find another school.
