Updates

It's been a while. Summer is here and it is lovely.

I would love to say the reason I have not updated the experiment is because I've been so busy being outside. But unfortunately that's not entirely true.

I've been outside - but not as much as I would have hoped. I believe that is about to change as I'm finally off work next week.

Some of the things I have done so far this summer:

• Started using an outdoor gym close to where I live. Much better than working out inside. And completely free.
• A trip to Norway
• A quick shelter trip
• Lots of walking in my city. Early morning walks in the summer are the best
• Sitting outside long into the night with friends
• Time with family

Going on a weeklong trip so ending the experiment for now.

Overall it really helped me show up and I would like to do something similar again.

First week down. Went alright.

• Monday I went for a short walk and some coffee at the harbor before work. Wonderful
• Had a day off Friday so I went car camping Friday to Saturday. Also walked 3 hours in the city Friday morning.
• Now I'm starting to plan (and get excited for) a trip to Norway next week

Goals:

• Spend time outside
• Be active
• Big adventure trips
• Small chill trips

I just spent some time looking at photos from last year and damn I had a good summer. I'm really hoping to replicate some of the results this year.

A decent little project. Much of this was just me checking up on my digital life.

I've made some good improvements. Cut some cost and strengthened some tools and processes.

Unfortunately one of the things I have also realized is how hard privacy is in our modern world. I have tried working a bit on it but I fear I'm still leaking information left and right with my online presence. Some of the measures I'd have to take to prevent this are just too cumbersome. This is really unfortunate. I have made small improvements here and there but I still have a ways to go.

... I'm actually still on track?

I spent a ton of money the last few months but somehow I'm still following the plan.
