My cheeks hurt. My legs hurt. FarCon.
Funny how I moved in to NYC the same day FarCon starts. Just dropped my things at my place and heading to Builder’s Day 🙃

I once celebrated Nyepi, or Silent Day, a 24h period of silence and darkness that happens after Balinese New Year. No people, no food, no books. Just pure water and stream of consciousness.

Not sure if many westerners would be able to handle that There’s only one way to find out.

gm. I woke up early, ate pre-school breakfast with my niece, and crashed on the couch for a quick nap

I woke up 4h later and it’s 1pm now. This is how I feel:

Advice is a form of nostalgia
Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal

~ I'm moving to US 🇺🇸 ~

My visa got approved today. After 2yr sabbatical, I'm moving in to New York - just in time for FarCon!

Nowhere in the world have I experienced such an incredible mix of generosity, high energy, and ambition as in US. Although I have traveled *a lot* over the past decade and was a resident in several countries, the idea of coming to the US never crossed my mind.

Last year was different. I got to FarCon '24 and traveled across the states. I had no plan. I ended up attending weddings and family reunions. Online friends and old colleagues welcomed me into their homes. There were stretches of days when I didn't spend a cent on food because of generosity of my American friends (who won't take no as an answer!)

My only hope is that I will be able to give back to those who treated me so dearly and contribute to a culture that made me who I am today.

And now, after such a long break, I'm back (again again again again) in business (literally)

/ You are in a good ramen shop and your friend starts yapping that ramen they had in Osaka was so much better. /

It’s pretentious. It’s lame. STFU.

Comparing the present to the past robs you from everything you have: the present moment

It’s even worse when we are doing it internally, in our own heads. We are being pretentious towards ourselves. Yuk!

Flying to Italy tomorrow and I woke up with a cold after bike cruising in Boston last night. Not the best timing :/

Few weeks back I met a woman on a flight. We ended up talking all trip and arranged a date in Dushanbe tea house in Boulder. Unfortunately I had to cancel last minute.

Today, she texted me, in my native language, wishing me happy moon eclipse. Now we're texting in Polish and catching up.

Looking forward to meet her when I'm back in California 😌
