Six Years of Freedom

vince

Greetings,

I just wrote a post called “Six Years of International Living” over at SHABL and if you’re interested on hearing my thoughts, go give it a gander. Where does time go, was it really not that long ago I was guzzling XL coffees while making insanely risky short term investments and addicted to reading iBankcoin?

Where does time go?

I’ve been pretty offline lately and it’s not just here, it’s everywhere. I could blame it on building two houses, lots of video editing or other things like that. The reality of the matter is that it all comes down to connection speed and electricity; how basic?! It’s time for this gent to look into getting a fast private connection and perhaps selling some of the bandwidth to others while hoarding most of it for myself.

At the same time though, I’m also hungry to travel again. Planting roots is cool but I’m not like most people and as my roots dig deeper into the dirt, I don’t feel at peace but as though I’m suffocating. I love where I live but I’m keen to see more of the world and that’s the plan for the later half of 2016.

I’d go on but I’m off to Mexico tomorrow and I haven’t packed or anything. In fact, I haven’t even gone through the clothes I leave in Managua at a friend’s place. The theme is business casual and I think I have some khaki pants, I sure hope so or I’m in trouble and it’s not that I’m leaving this post to even open the bag, I’m going to go bed and worry about it in the morning.

Also, if I never started stophavingaboringlife.com; none of this would be possible. Just thought I’d mention that and a big thanks to “The Fly” for having his Peanut Gallery in ~2008; that’s the humble place where I got my start. That said, if you don’t use it you lose and and since I’m not writing much these days a simple bloggery  like this which used to flow from my fingers like smoke from a cigarette feels forced but that’s what I get for slacking.

Tips hat,

P.S: Thanks to Vincenzo for making this logo in late 2009.

    Congrats and a tip of the hat back to you on having a winning record. I got off the career ride a couple of years back, in considerable part due to IBC, and although I lack the budget and inclination to adopt a nomadic lifestyle, I, too, have no regrets.

    You can run all day, on a wheel, for a wage, but if you want to start living, then you’ve gotta leave the cage: http://www.last.fm/music/Ham-STAR/_/Off+The+Wheel

    Hard to belive it’s been almost 9 years since I first heard that track.

    I join the others in hearty congratulations. Six years of living life your way!

    I don’t recall if it was PPT or 12631, but your occasional message board posts there were gold. They were great, like missives from a distant outpost.

    Travel safe. Enjoy life.
