🇳🇱🇧🇪🏴🏴🗺️🐈 8 job offers and a cat
Hi everyone! Not much news on my side, besides that there’s a new cat in my life. Her name is Lucienne (most appropriate, since I adopted her the 5th of August, when Sandman got released).
Lucienne, say hi.
She’s doing well, although she is a little bit fierce with Odo (my other cat). So for the moment, they’re living in separate spaces.
Anyway, down to business! Many thanks to Josué and Tom Logan for sending me a couple of the open positions for this issue. I was listening to KT Tunstall’s Black horse and the cherry tree while typing, I hope you enjoy.
