How I did it: Well, in reality I didn't do much anything, it had more to do with the way I was willing to see things and the world around me. Seeking for a higher meaning for existence can lead to isolation from real life and pondering about that made me realise that I don't need any greater meaning for my existence than just being alive and living my life enjoying it.

How to get out of the house more
It took me
3 months
It made me
more outgoing

How I did it: Well, in reality it took me more than just getting out of the door.

In two days... 2 weeks ago

Oh my how the time flies! On Wednesday, 18th of August, I’ll board a plane to the UK, my new home country for the next 3 years. So many little things to do still, so little time left… But it’s all good. It’s all good.
