In this video, Jörgen searches for an answer to the question: why is watching Netflix more fun than reading?
About the "Vlogboek" series about reading: in five videos, Jörgen addresses various questions related to reading. It will be a journey of discovery through facts, persistent myths, and interesting trivia. From medieval authors to writing computers.
