Reprogramming Ourselves From The Comforts of Home
Sunset in Zielonki, as painted by Czupur the cat We return to a “normal” rhythm here at DigitalNomad.Blog. My new workmates think I am extraordinary Like one of those things pretty much everybody else in most of the world has: A home, a routine, abundant cuddles. Travel has slowed down. I’ve been building a home and relationships from a warm, comfortable, loving house near Krakow, Poland. Considering that life has...
When Relationships Print An Expiry Date
There is a special, chilling kind of silence you can hear, the sound when love is sucked out instantly from a previously warm and amicable situation. It’s the electrical wires, buzzing with heightened intensity. The throbbing of the walls. The coldness in the wind against the windows. Concern and naive, but tender, sympathy from the four eyes of two cats, who, with little else to monitor in their leisurely lives, can sense a...

This marked the last hurrah of my book, Plan Sea, started around a year ago, concluding with the lessons learned from remote working on the road. Life is so much more than work, and must be balanced as such, as we work to live, and live to work, but neither should be more...
Breakfast in Riga, Sunset Berlin
Last weekend was spent in Palanga, Lithuania The Baltic trip is complete, in a big, rushed finale to a mission that started around six weeks ago. Despite some initial fears and anxieties, not the least of which was virtually no budget for any of this, everything was OK in the end, as it almost always is. In fact, it was another one of those magical adventures, void of expectations, a general idea of a route, and then steadfastly...
From Vilnius to Palanga
A week into my first visit, Lithuania is rapidly rising up my list of impressive countries. People are friendly, society is laid back and respectful, there is an abundance of green nature and rustic old buildings, and a peaceful sense of contentedness. The first four nights I spent in the capital, Vilnius. I stayed at one of the best hostels I’ve been to in the world, Downtown Forest Hostel and Camping. Angels in Uzupis I met...
