The end to another eventful week and weekend…

Friend’s Birthday Party
Cityscape
Discovering a new spot for lunch
A walk around the Jardins du Luxembourg
Some more city adventures
Coworkers went out and brought me a Viet Avocado Shake (Sinh To Bo) 😋🥑🥤#heatwave
A nice evening to catchup on Monocle’s latest issue, with a big section dedicated to the best cities for Quality of Life.
Especially delighted to see a quote from Jordane Giuly — with whom I worked during my Spendesk days— about how Paris has improved as a place for business, and especially for technology companies of all sizes. Even less surprising was seeing Lindsey’s name in a quote about how the city has changed over the years.
It’s something that I’ve noticed over the past decade, and part of the reason why I’ve been back living around Paris for the past 6 years. Great quality of life, great work life balance, and — unlike 10-15 years ago— much more welcoming to foreigners and non-francophone visitors than it’s ever been.
Respect the city and its inhabitants and it’ll pay dividends the next time you visit for pleasure or for business :)

One of my first ever pics taken and edited through VSCO. This takes me back to when I was living in Brighton, about 15 years ago (!) — which is where this pic is from.

Day 20: gather #mbjune
In our residence, we’ve got these raspberry trees on either side of the path walk, and every evening after school or daycare, kids have been coming around to pick them up. Hunting & Gathering, so to speak.

Absolute madness at the Paris Basketball game tonight!
Game 2 of the 2024-2025 LNB Betclic Elite Finals: 2-0 Win
Total domination against this Monaco team and we went as high as having a +30 point gap.
TJ Shorts proving once again why he’s the best player on the continent and the whole team played its part! Incredible game, incredible atmosphere, and now one win away from our very first League Championship.
Seems like my M3 / 2024 Macbook Air is already feeling the limits of DIA being built on Chrome. Was navigating work with multiple tabs & webapps and… heavy temperature + long freezes. You can improve on Chrome, but if you’re built on it, the machines are gonna flyyyyy!

First game of the Finals — a best of five series It’s our second appearance at the finals ever — second in two years. We lost to Monaco 3-1 last year, but we are stronger while Monaco is having some issues with a star player who’s not gonna play again this season and another solid one who’s injured.
Today’s victory puts us up 1-0, so two more wins, needed to win the whole damn thing!
The team was serious from beginning to end, so that was really great.

Just got back from a day at Viva Tech 2025 for Work.
The event was huge, with 165,000 attendees over four days, making it the biggest conference I’ve ever been to.
AI was obviously the star of the show, popping up everywhere and driving discussions on its ethical implications and practical applications. It was interesting to see how governments (national and regional) and companies are leveraging AI to innovate in their core businesses.
I attended 2 really cool keynotes :
Overall, a great opportunity to see how the industry is evolving. It was a solid experience, and I’m already looking forward to next year’s event.

(In a best-of-5 series - meaning the first team to 3 wins goes through.)
Another solid win: started with a 7-0 run, then tied and went as far as being 10 points behind in the first half. Very poor refereeing in Q2, seemed that refs were losing the plot.
Back to business in Q3, and we really went ahead in Q4.
Onwards now: one more win to get to the finals!

Day 5: Reflection #mbjune
Double offering today:
Went to this game with my cousin, who now works for PSG. Earlier this year he had invited me to attend a game at the Parc des Princes so it was only natural to get him to join me for a game in my second home, Adidas Arena.
Final Score: 100-89 — game 2 in 2 days

Day 4: Nostalgia #mbjune
A lifetime ago in Seoul, during my year traveling around the world while working remotely as a digital nomad. South Korea was my favorite country to visit that year
Game 3 Victory: On to the Semifinals! @ACMomento #ParisBasketball
First game of the playoffs and it started with an exclusive Season-ticket holders event hosted by the club, where we were able to go shoot on the court, visit the entire arena, discover the hospitality section, talk with a few players and the president, and get our Playoffs started! | @acmomento
