Op een strandbedje de eerste Zomergasten Podcast van dit jaar aan het terug luisteren.

Schrijver, columnist en programmamaker Özcan Akyol (Deventer, 1984), beter bekend als Eus, is de eerste Zomergast. Griet Op de Beeck interviewt Akyol over zijn ideale televisieavond. Akyol: ‘In mijn fragmenten toon ik de harde én zachte stemmen die mij hebben gevormd. Van mijn artistieke helden tot onbekende subculturen: ik wil laten zien dat we, ondanks verschillen in afkomst of klasse, meer op elkaar lijken dan we denken.’

The summer holidays are great for tinkering with technology and rethinking my social media setup (again). I’ve activated my micro.blog account (hub.schoonens.social) to start my social media interactions from here. Posts get cross-posted to different locations from here. More on that later.

Today’s Formula 1 race at Spa Francorchamps was disappointing to watch. I was hoping for a race full of action in the rain, but we got 44 rounds of cars following each other without any nice overtaking.

Piastri remains dominant and consistent in his performance. He’s driving his laps like a machine. #f1 #formula1

3 days in Oberbozen

·

I’ve been staying in Northern Italy for the past 3 days. I went with my wife and youngest daughter. We stayed at Pippo’s Mountain Lodge, located in the Sud-Tirol region in a small town called Oberbozen. Our stay here has been magnificent due to a beautiful view from our room, great hospitality by the hosts of this hotel and a lovely kitchen. I can highly recommend this place if you are traveling from any Northern European country to mid or southern Italy.
