What I'm Doing Now

· 1 min read

(This is a now page, inspired by Derek Sivers. If you have your site, you should make one, too.)

I'm in Bordeaux, France.

Personal

  • Living happily with my wife and preparing to welcome our first child in September
  • Trying to restore my meditation habit
  • Trying to be more mindful and deliberate about how I spend my time and attention
  • Learning to want less. Fewer desires, more peace.
  • Playing long-term games. Resisting short-term distractions to focus on long-term compounding in health, learning, and relationships.

Work

  • Agile Facilitator at Crédit Mutuel Arkéa.
  • Also working as Factory Facilitator and Head of QoS & Support.

Learning

  • Spanish (practicing daily and reading literature in the original language)
  • Experimenting with privacy-first AI workflows, agentic coding tools, and PKM (Obsidian)

Reading

At least a book a week. Lately, I've been focused on parenting guides, science fiction (recently devouring Martha Wells' Murderbot Diaries), and books on systems and organizations.

List of all the books I have read since 2013.

Health

Kettlebell swings, bodyweight exercises (Convict Conditioning), resistance tubes, running. Trying to move every day.
