A Few Days in Riga for a Work Conference

Being in Riga for a work conference feels a little strange in the best possible way. It’s work, yes, but also not really just work.

Daisies and the DSA

Sitting in a city park, looking at an impressive number of daisies, I am finally listening to the very interesting sessions of the conference marking two years of the DSA.
