Okay, so, it is not new for me that it takes me a long time to finish a blog. I usually start, then stop somewhere, wait a couple weeks, think about what I really want to write then finish it and a week or two later I publish it. A blog almost never gets published when it was written. However, this is the first time it actually took me a whole year between start and finish. The reason for that is that it is really difficult and it took me much more than a year t...

It's been a while, again, and I spent some of this time wondering, whether I should be allowed to write a blog at all, if I am not (physically) traveling. Then I decided that it is my blog and I can write whatever I want whenever I want. After all, life is a journey and you don't always have to move around the globe to grow as an individual (although it helps). And then I tried to find the time to do so. The time is now, apparently. I have settled down. Well, ...

I haven't written in a very long time, I know. The main reason for this was that I was somewhat lost.

Things didn't go quite as planned (as is rather usual) and I was getting tired of having to change my plans, destinations, goals, and whatnot every few weeks or months at short notice. I have known for some time now that I didn't want to continue my life ju...

So, I am basically already off to my next adventure but then, seeing the way my life is organized at this moment, it is also hard to draw a line (other than geographic) between one adventure and the next. There is little time to catch my breath in between. So I will just stick to geographic lines and say, I am off to Colombia - finally! I will write again, once I have spent enough time there to know what I can or should be writing, which will probably be several ...

Guess, what, I had five hours in the train, full of the impressions of my last four days in Italy, but it was only few days since I last wrote so this will be short and painful - well, hopefully not for you... So I left the place near Lecco by bike on Monday morning. Well, actually, Sunday I hadn't been in Italy either, because we played a floorball tournament in Switzerland (and won!). And who would have guessed - when I needed a ride home from a place in the...
