mydata2018
type: Note
content: Who is going to MyData2018 in Helsinki at the end of the month? It's horribly expensive for some reason, and I'm too lazy to volunteer, so I won't be at the conference itself but I'll be in town for a couple of days if anyone wants to hang out.

runkeeper
type: Note
content: Mashing the 'resend to RunKeeper' button and praying to the quantified self gods to fucking sync my last week+ of activities already. Grumble. It's all very well GPS tracking my life, but if I can't get it off my phone it never really happened, did it?! (Might be in the market for a new android (4.4 or lower) GPS tracker.. any recommendations? Doesn't have to do anything except draw a map, and be exportable to an open format. Auto-posting to twitter is a bonus. Fantastic API would be great too, for when I get around to owning this stuff myself. Oh and also NOT CRASH all the time like RunKeeper, eh.)

2018-in-review
type: Article
content: In 2017 I finished my thesis in Malaysia, flew back to Europe, got a job in Sarajevo and settled down there for a bit. It would have been easy to stay. Too easy. Being comfortable makes me uncomfortable, so in 2018 I became once more an everything-I-own-in-a-backpack no-fixed-abode full-time digital nomad. I posted logs or photos or blogposts to my site 4,817 times and posted 9,520 individual photos. tl;dr Started travelling, around Europe, mostly. Did not fly. Finally wrapped up the last Social Web WG specs. Left OCCRP and joined ODS. Drafted half a novel. Went to a couple of conferences, for either fun or profit. Refaced my website. Made many new friends, some fleeting, some lingering on WhatsApp or Signal. Goals for 2019: Proceed on current trajectory, but write more. Skip to: Words Travel Work Code Stuff January: travel practice February: re-finding my nomad March: slow down April: new experiences, and academia flashbacks May: beaches and history and solitude June: home again home again July: off-route August: back on plan September: Lithuania is underrated October: writing, stability, then a detour November: I LOVE POLAND December: to the sea, better late than never Reflection on 2018 2019 Words I wrote 437 things. On my site I posted 350 short notes or commentary with photos, and 87 longer articles. I also logged non-blogpost writing 34 times. These all comprise approximately 122,401 words in total (47,804 off-site). That's a mean of 335.35 words and 1.20 posts per day. I wrote about 217 different topics, with the most common being travel (181), life (89), food (46), week in review (44), vegan (38), hacking (26), Georgia (the country) (13), sloph (13), tourism (12), Sarajevo, Bosnia (10), Poland (10), and nanowrimo (10). My NaNoWriMo project was Birds, and I also wrote small bits of Quest for Brothers and Offcast. Travel I stopped in a total of 24 countries; I visited 9 countries for more than a couple of weeks, 7 of which I had never been to before, and passe…

2019-in-review
type: Article
content: In 2018 I travelled all over Europe, mostly alone, and got to know myself better than ever. 2019 was a continuation of this, with a few unexpected twists, new lessons, and reinforcement of things I discovered last year. I posted logs or photos or blogposts to my site 4,974 times and posted 9,032 individual photos. tl;dr Continued to travel around Europe; visited lots of new places, and returned to places I know and love. Met a few wonderful new people. Kept in touch or reconnected with many others. Tested the limits of my sociability. Did contracting work as well as my day job, but not enough to add up to full-time. Went out of my way to attend RWOT conferences twice. Looked after other peoples' pets. Took a detour to visit Elizabeth in Zimbabwe for 2 weeks (broke the no-fly rule). Had a rhino-related near-death experience. A long, hot, Balkan summer; swam in the sea often, got a lot of migraines from the heat. Learnt to read Cyrllic with ease. Returned to the UK for Co-op and family stuff. Did more exercise than last year. Not that the bar was high. Fell in love with the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Won NaNoWriMo! But overall wrote less than last year. Overcame a bit my aversion to fire, through necessity. Goals for 2020: more of the same really. But with more solitude. Words I wrote 321 things. On my site I posted 261 short notes or commentary with photos, and 60 longer articles. I also logged non-blogpost writing 34 times. These all comprise approximately 95,722 words in total (52,001 off-site). That's a mean of 262.25 words and 0.88 posts per day. That's less than last year; missed my 'write more' goal. I wrote about 153 different topics, with the most common being travel (99), life (69), week in review (50), nanowrimo (29), writing (21), food (15), tourism (13), vegan (12), Bulgaria (10), ods (9), montenegro (8), and hiking (8). My NaNoWriMo project was Quest for Brothers, but I didn't write much else. Travel I stopped in a total of 22 countries; I visited 12 cou…

20s-review
type: Article
content: I left home aged 18 to study for a BSc in Web Technology at the University of Lincoln (UK) because that was what I liked to do for fun. I didn't have much of a plan or a goal, and haven't ever since. I spent my twenties with one thing leading to another, not trying to steer myself in any particular direction. I don't think I ever had an image of what life would be like when I reached 30. I am privileged and fortunate to be where I am. When I turned 20 (2010), I was at work in London, doing a 3 month Google internship. I chaired a team meeting for the first time ever. It was a small group, some of whom were on video in Zurich and Vienna. (They didn't know it was my birthday.) When I turned 21 (2011), I woke up before dawn and took a hot air balloon flight over the Nile in Egypt with my sister. We were on a 3 week overland trucking trip through the Middle East. When I turned 22 (2012), I was sick and stayed in bed at home in Edinburgh with Kit, a bit sad at not being on a coach to Birmingham with the kids doing the Young Rewired State hackathon whom I'd been mentoring all week. When I turned 23 (2013), I was in Birmingham, helping out at the finale hackathon weekend of the Young Rewired State kids programming week. When I turned 24 (2014), I was in London. I spent the summer there working on Semantic Web Stuff with industry leaders at the BBC. When I turned 25 (2015), I was visiting my Mum in Lincolnshire on the way home to Edinburgh, having attended my highschoolbestfriend Polly's wedding a couple of days prior. When I turned 26 (2016), I hung out in Boston (US) cafes by myself, and in the evening ate blueberry pie in Veggie Galaxy with my friend Ned (who didn't know it was my birthday). When I turned 27 (2017), I was at work as a software developer for OCCRP in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Nobody knew it was my birthday until I found out two of my colleagues had their birthday on the same day, so we all went out for drinks in the evening. When I turned 28 (2018), I was alone i…

2020-review
type: Article
content: In 2019 I zigzagged around Europe and even further afield. I thought this year would either be much the same, or completely different. It was completely different - but in an entirely different way than I what I expected. But that was the case for everyone, right? I posted to my site 4,394 times. I posted 6,017 individual photos into 11 different albums. tl;dr Downsized to 35L. Travel stalled. Upsized in order to occupy a part-furnished flat. I was the Best Man at my friend's wedding. Did one Vipassana retreat, in Switzerland. Got trapped by the pandemic for 5 months in Sarandë, Albania. Returned to the UK for multiple reasons, then stayed. Started the process for donating a kidney, but then wasn't needed any more. Decided on something to invest my savings into, but still pending. Read a lot and watched a lot of TV. Stood for election to the W3C TAG. Goals for 2021: Make the most of Fife. Spend time with my IRL friends again, IRL. Try to make myself useful in the local community, and online communities. Words I wrote 345 things. On my site I posted 282 short notes or commentary with photos, and 63 longer articles. I also logged non-blogpost writing 29 times. These all comprise approximately 59,593 words in total (9,010 off-site). That's a mean of 162.82 words and 0.94 posts per day. I wrote about 156 different topics, with the most common being life (122), travel (74), week in review (49), food (40), albania (34), hacking (31), vegan (29), ods (27), coronavirus (27), crochet (24), covid19 (21), and uk (16). My NaNoWriMo project was Dumping Sky. I didn't write anything else, or finish any previous projects. Again. Travel I stopped in an all-time nomadding low of 6 different countries, none of which I had never been to before. A long stay in Albania was a goal I overachieved on, with 149 nights in total. Pre-lockdown I spent 13 nights in Turkey, 2 in Greece, 3 in Bulgaria and 16 in Switzerland (11 of these on a Vipassana meditation retreat). And 177 in the UK by the e…
