👨‍💻 Professional

This month I plan to focus mostly on an internal project for Elastic Map Service, but we are also hosting our User Conference (ElasticON) in a virtual fashion where I will co-host a map session and will participate in a geospatial Birds of a Feather session.

❤️ Community

Apart from the conference mentioned above, I will be participating in my first NACIS.org[1] conf 🗺️, even it overlaps with ElasticON! I'm also more involved now on the Elastic Community here at Spain, looking forward to learn more local use cases and projects.

🏠 Personal

Not much to report on the personal side, we just started the third and last quarter of Alba's pregnancy 🤰. We are finishing the purchase of a few things for the baby, working on keeping her gestational diabetes under control, etc.

📚 Reading

Continuing listening through Death’s End[2] from Cixin Liu. This is a 29 hours audio book so I think I still have a couple months to finish it. BTW, Audible has landed in Spain so when we finish all our 🇬🇧 credits, we'll likely transfer our acounts.

My next audio book will be The Left Hand of Darkness[3] by Ursula K Leguin. I'm wondering if I should re-purchase the books from my queue below as audio books 🤔.
