Last night at San Siro was epic, reminding me why we need to bring FC Edmonton back. Not that we would ever field 71,000 fans, but I would be satisfied with 7,100.

Hey YEG, if a 1,000-year-old Italian street can accommodate a fully protected bike lane, so can any street in Edmonton

Nothing beats trains in terms of comfort, and it is very sad we do not have them in our part of Canada. After taking one in Serbia, I will take two more trains in Italy over the next couple of days. Can't wait!

YEG Airport made this really cool. The mannequin is part of the Muttart exhibition.

I have reverted to making Turkish coffee in my office. I am so done with instant mudwater

I have travelled a lot and lived in many countries, but Kananaskis is probably the most beautiful place I have seen. It's also very underrated

Just confirmed that I will watch Milan v Fiorentina, live in October 😍⚽🍾

Nacho is actually from Saskatchewan! It took a lot of digging to discover that, and it seems he had six siblings. I guess he does look like a Saskatchewan cat!

Champagne is flowing because Nacho believes Edmonton Centre will turn red!

This POS still cannot understand that Canada is a sovereign country with its own constitution, legal system, and deeply rooted identity. We like our healthcare public, our elections real, and our borders intact. Keep your chaos, your ignorance, and your slogans on your side of the border.

I mean, in how many other places can you get a full day of skiing at the end of March, just 10 minutes away from where you live 🥰

You just have to love spring!

I decided against cycling this morning 😵‍💫

There are still two pieces of positive news for today:

1. Canadians are waking up, and Tiny PP will lose the elections.

2. Skating was very nice at Victoria Park today, even though it was boiling hot

The number of people at these protests is absolutely impressive

The Carney hype is real: he might win and save Canada from the conservative devastation. Now, let's see if he can write!
January 27, 2025 at 12:06 AM
And it was great!

Edmonton can be beautiful!
