Last night at work. Nurse: Alfredo have you watched the handmaid’s tale? / me: yeah! I love that show / him: go look at yourself in a mirror / so this is what I look like when I walk around with the visor up...praise be!

This morning I went to Clapham Common to get a coffee and go for a walk. When I left pret an American woman, pointing at the common, said to her friend: “and that’s where the gays congregate”

ITU: it’s been a pleasure. I’ve been told I can go back to HIV Research. I was asked if I wanted a job in ITU, but I’d rather do a few shifts a month to keep the skills (much needed if there’s a second wave!). PrEP Impact trial, here I come

Got my MSc in Nursing at King’s. I asked people living with HIV in the USA and Spain about their preferences reg long-acting injectable vs oral ARVs. Not the grade I expected, but 8 months with no annual leave, redeployments to ICU, many, many extra hours at work…I’m proud of it

Had my exit interview today and I felt so sad when I told my manager that it was the awful property market what made me look for a job outside London. Rent is out of control and with the salary of a nurse living alone I will never be able to buy anything in this city.

This is why the actual education system doesnt work. Let kids play and explore, rather than forcing them to memorize facts that they’ll forget once they have passed those awful exams.

Reading in the park just lying down is very, very uncomfortable. I got this camping chair and let me tell you: what an investment!

Someone I used to work with, who has a BSc and an MSc in Biomed, asked me today if covid was real. She also said that big brother is watching, and that the vaccine is a perfect opportunity for them to inject trackers into us.

The health secretary of the UK is changing the law so nurses can administer vaccines. Yes, he said that.

Turned 35 yesterday. Had a quiet morning in the park with a good book and an iced coffee, then drinks with some friends. It was 28C, and not a single cloud! Couldn’t have asked for more

Fellow nurses: do you also feel like going on strike after not being included in the pay rise? Or is it just me?

Finally home. It’s a bit shocking to suddenly speak Spanish after not speaking it for a while…I even said “give me un minuto” to my brother.

ICU. The best: the amazing team! Everyone’s lovely. The worst: the pressure sore I got on my nasal bridge. It might look like it’s nothing, but trust me, it’s painful!

Tenerife and La Palma have stunning night skies. More than 60 telescopes from 20 different countries are permanently based here. I have a super basic one but you can still see many things, and I used it last night to take this photo of the moon.

I finally rented a flat in Madrid. 10min walk to the gym, 25 to work, and the building has a swimming pool! ⛱️💙

Did an extra shift in ICU to keep up with the skills as being redeployed again could happen in the next few weeks. Loved the team, and the new ICU unit 👌🏻

THANK YOU to the amazing people I met in London over the last 10 years. What an experience! Hopefully Madrid will be the right decision (otherwise I’ll run back to Clapham!)

So I phoned the gym:
Me: hi! Do you guys have hairdryers in the changing rooms?
PT on the phone: is this Alfredo?

The more I read it the more I like it. Dune is a sci-fi masterpiece. Lady Jessica is my favourite character, and Rebecca Ferguson did an amazing job in the latest movie.
