OYSTERHOOD is reclusiveness or solitude, or an overwhelming desire to stay at home.

It is Austria’s Nationalfeiertag today. We celebrate the moment when Austria was declared “frei” (free) in 1955.

And my dearest Norwegian friends are celebrating their thirteenth wedding anniversary on the same day. Happy Anniversary!

My love and I were also celebrating today: we were celebrating that we made it through the last few weeks. We are both exhausted because of work – rewarding and wonderful work – but work that has pushed us near the limits of our endurance. But we made it! And tonight, we had a beautiful dinner at an amazing place and will have an early night and return to work – hopefully energised – tomorrow again.

Until then, I wish everyone sweet dreams.

Be kind. Wear a mask. Support local.
