July summary

July was a pretty hectic month over here.
I wonder how it happened that I started working at an infectious diseases clinic and only two months later a pandemic hits the country and radically changes our daily routine.

Happy Father’s day!

To all those men around the world who care for and love their children, and make such a great difference in our lives! (especially my dad, of course :)

It doesn’t mean we spinsters need to hide in our rooms for a whole day eating ice-cream. It can actually be a good chance to show those you care about, that you care enough to make a change in their name.
