New NLJ Article: 86 Days Until Christmas
On October 1, 2026, I (being N.A. Ferrell) published a new article on The New Leaf Journal titled 86 Days Until Christmas: Seen in Carroll Gardens. On September 29, I had come across an inflatable Christmas countdown clock on the Carroll Gardens side of Degraw Street (Degraw is the border between Cobble Hill and Carroll...

Recently in December '24
December is now coming to an end. It's time to recap about what has happened during this last month, before writing my final Year in Review. This month was quite of a rollercoaster, I visited a few places, met with people a few times and watched a lot of stuff.

Christmas on Repeat
Despite often being terrible, we watch the same holiday movies every year. Why's that? Well, it's not often about the movies—it's about our memories.

The eleventh month of the year is now gone, and it's almost time for Sinterklaas and then Christmas. November had more events than I was actually planning for, but it all ended up going well. Let's recap!

🎄 Week 123 - Christmas
Merry Christmas! My parents arrived on Christmas Eve and the cooking marathon began. While the ham boiled I had a couple of pints with my dad in the pub; everyone else visited the local church for its crib service. I used my well-honed cooking schedule from previous years, and as

How Santa Morphs
Santa Claus as a figurehead has long represented a control on society, what we should aspire to be. But for someone who is portrayed as an icon of permanence, his image is sure subject to influence.

Visiting Aachen's Christmas Market
Last weekend, Christiaan and I went to the Christmas Market in Aachen. The first time I went to a Christmas Market was in 2019, in Zurich, during a work trip. Until then, I did not even know that Christmas Markets were a thing. Since moving to The Netherlands, I've been wanting to visit one of these magical markets, but, unfortunately, Covid-19 made that impossible. Fortunately, last weekend we made that wish come true.

🎅 Week 68 - Santa
It's been icy-cold this week, the temperature barely reaching above zero. No snow yet, but plenty of ice and frost. I picked up a Belkin BoostCharge Pro as a late birthday present. It's an expensive luxury on my bedside, but a convenient way of fast-charging my iPhone with MagSaf

Recently in November '22
November has been a pretty intensive month in many different regards: from my parents visiting The Netherlands for the first time, to my partner and I moving in together to a new apartment. Besides, we're getting closer and closer to the end of the year, which means there are some cosy events I am looking forward to 🎄🍷.

🎄 Week 18 - Christmas
This one's a little late, because... it's Christmas! I was struggling to shake my cold from last week, so with my parents' impending visit in mind, I booked a drive-through PCR test. All very efficient. 36 hours later the result was thankfully negative. In celebration, we had a t

🎉 Week 16 - Party
It was my work Christmas party this week at Bistrotheque in East London. It was a boozy one: margaritas were offered as we arrived at 11am to accompany the All-Hands meeting and awards. Some were still going at midnight; I drank slowly and slipped out early evening. Nice to chat
