Happy Sunday!
I have spent some wonderful days in the UK and had a fantastic time at the U2 concert at TheO2, London on Tuesday. You can check out some of my photos and videos on my Instagram.
Then of course, it was back to work for the second half of the week.

The Four “Best” Countries for Refugee Resettlement
And on that same note, let’s check out where refugees are better off resettling these days.

And then you should also read this and this and this. I was hesitant to feature these, mainly because the law of the seas never particularly interested me, but then this seems such a typical international law dispute, one can really learn a lot studying it.
