I got tired of looking down at my laptop last year. The Flio Stand raises my laptop to a near-perfect height and is amazingly portable. It used magnets to dismantle into two boards; very compact. With multiple wood finish options, it would fit in any office or coffee shop.

One of my favourite parts of the day is listening to a podcast while I get our four-months old settled in the evening. It's a calm part of the day where I can get inspired by design, development or business discussions, or learn new things about the world, while spending quality time with our daughter (and I'm 100% certain she's learning stuff too).

For anyone wanting good coffee at the office or home without spending thousands on a grinder, the Wilfa WSCG-2 is a great option. It costs around €80 and has grind settings from moka pot, through aeropress, filter, plunger to cold brew, fitting every coffee method but espresso. It's an essential tool of my work day.

This app is a game changer for people who live abroad or travel frequently. Your Revolut account can hold balances in Euros, British pounds and US dollars, and offers zero fees and mid-market exchange rates when spending money with the free Mastercard or withdrawing at an ATM. The app lists every transaction as they happen, and you can also send money to anyone (even if they don't have Revolut) via SMS, email or even Whatsapp. It's a charm and ever-present on my phone and in my wallet.

Working between home, coffee shops and sometimes summer cottages in the Finnish countryside, it's important I have a sturdy bag to carry and protect my 15" laptop. The Hans backpack from Sandqvist – a Swedish company founded by two brothers and their childhood friend – reflects its very Nordic roots; simple, functional and stylish.

My true digital companion. I throw everything into Simplenote (new ideas, project plans, passport details) and use simple tags to categorise them into topics; search is fast, and you can search within a tag, too. I install Simplenote onto every device I own so I can add to an idea or jot something down wherever I am (a web version exists too).
