Hey — it's Rames

Our stay in Tamraght is coming to an end. In two weeks, we'll be moving to Tarifa, the southernmost point of Spain. So after 6 months, here are my pros/cons:

Cons

  • It's quite dirty.

  • If you like green, you won't find much over there. This is something we missed and are happy to find in Tarifa.

Pros

  • Moroccans are super friendly, welcoming, and always have a big smile on their faces.

  • It's a surfing paradise. The waves are perfect, and there are so many spots to choose from.

  • The weather is perfect for spending the winter — warm during the day, cool at night.

  • The food is amazing! I could eat tajines and couscous every day, and there's so much more to Moroccan food 😋

We had an awesome time, so I highly recommend it, especially if you surf or want to learn how to surf 🏄‍♂️

And before we begin... This week's sponsor...

1/ Morgen x Notion l Full Integration Tutorial

If you're not fully satisfied with Notion Calendar yet, I suggest you take a look at Morgen. It's a smart calendar app that integrates with Notion and has a few additional features that Notion Calendar doesn't have, such as:

  • Updating the status in Morgen updates the status in Notion.

  • Accessing ALL of your tasks (in Notion Calendar, tasks without a "date" property won't be visible).

  • Seeing all properties for each database item (e.g., assignee, priority, status, etc.).

I wrote a tutorial that covers everything you need to know about how to set up the Notion integration, access your tasks, and how to use this combo for time blocking and planning.


2/ Upvotes, Escalations & Approvals (Button Property)

In last week's newsletter, I mentioned the new button property, which allows you to automate your Notion workspace even further. Notion has shipped a really nice template that helps you understand how you can use these buttons for upvotes, escalations, and approvals.
