Hiking Along The Kiel Canal Part 1 | Challenge NOK24

Here are some pictures from my hike along the Kiel Canal. Not the greatest pictures because I was walking at night, and towards the end I just did not feel like taking pictures. Anyway, maybe they give you a little insight into how it looks along the canal 🚢 Gieselau...

Selke Valley Hike | Harz Mountains

Selke Valley Hike | Harz Mountains

Back in July I went on a day hike in the Harz Mountains. We went in the Selke Valley and basically hiked around the tiny spa town of Alexisbad. From spectacular views across the Harz Mountains and down the Selke Valley, following tiny forest paths, through a...

Long Time No See | Personal Update

Long Time No See | Personal Update

Long time no see… Guess it’s time for an update… Almost a year ago I quit my job, going back to self-employment full-time. Has been a year of many ups and downs. And if I’m honest, currently it’s extremely challenging again. I don’t have enough projects, and I’m...

Feeling a bit better | weekly review

I am feeling a bit better this week. I'm still writing morning pages, as well as reading a lot. Furthermore, I'm working on a proposal for a potential client, which I have to send out tomorrow, Monday. It's a complicated proposal, but I will finish it tomorrow...

Don’t feel like writing here | weekly review

Don’t feel like writing here | weekly review

I honestly don't really feel like writing here. Last weekend I've been sick (cold). Hence, I didn't write anything last week. I'm reading a lot, and write morning pages every day. This week I met a few interesting people and had nice conversations. Furthermore, I got...

Overthinking and back to morning pages | weekly review

This week, I’ve been overthinking a lot. However, because of a good conversation on Monday, with that man who was in New Zealand, I remembered the morning pages. While I’ve been overthinking a lot, especially in the beginning and mid of the week, I slowly feel a bit...

Tired & bad weather but nice conversations | weekly review

This week I’ve been tired all the time and the weather has been awful. Almost no sun, except for Saturday. Had a few nice conversations, though. In general, I do feel a bit better. While I still don’t sleep, and not any income in sight stresses me out a lot, I feel a...

Golden October & a bit better | weekly review

It’s the end of October, we just changed back to winter time today. The weather is mostly great. However, I still feel bad. Not a lot I can say in terms of how I feel compared to the last weeks. I still feel very anxious. I don’t sleep a lot. I’m scared. Overall, I...

I’m not motivated | weekly review

I’m not motivated | weekly review

I'm not motivated to write anything. No changes to the last weeks. Feel like a failure. There was some sun this week, and it's also not too cold for October. I enjoyed that. What else can I write? I don't know. Don't really remember what has happened this week if I'm...

Still unsure, but Aurora Borealis in Kiel! | weekly review

I’m still not sure how I want to go on. I’m still not happy with myself. Slowly I’m getting some motivation, though. And we had Aurora Borealis in Kiel! It was so nice to see! Over the last two, three weeks I’ve been struggling a lot. Doubting myself. Unsure what’s...

Worst day of the year | weekly review

Worst day of the year | weekly review

It was this day of the year again: The worst one… It was on Tuesday. Today I’m feeling better already, but I did not enjoy this week. Every year at the end of September, and especially beginning of October, I feel terrible. It has been the worst day of the year. Like...

Same as last week | Weekly Review

Same as last week | Weekly Review

This week has been the same, as last week. I don’t really feel like writing anything, but don’t want to not write anything either. I still feel like last week, very unsure and without a lot of self-confidence. While I have been working on some things, I think it was...

I’m back in business …

I hate self-promotion (and it’s far outside my comfort zone writing this post), but… I’m back in business! 🥳 Yesterday was my last day working for someone else’s dream – now I’m self-employed again, working on my dream (more about that very soon). And the plan is,...
