👋🏼 Welcome to SwiftlyRush
This week has been a special one, after two years working from home and six months working for a new company, Stream. I finally got a flight to Amsterdam and met my colleagues.
I forgot the benefits of meeting people in person, and in fact, I have probably been so much more productive this week than any week working from home. I can't dispute that I am looking forward to being back at home with my family and working within my own office, but I must say that I miss office life.
I will be adopting a more hybrid model from now on, and I will look to attend the office a bit more regularly, given the restrictions that are lifting around the world.
Next week, I will be travelling to Turin for the SwiftHeroes iOS Conference, and I am looking forward to meeting some of you there.
