I like the idea of Derek Sivers' now page (and other related ideas and implementations).

Every now and then I come to this page and change some words — it is an opportunity to reflect upon where I stand, and whether it feels good to stand in where that is. It's really important stuff.

🌍 where?

A little over a two years ago, I moved to Denmark...and I think I'll be here for a while. I am currently based in Copenhagen.

💡 why?

I get this question a lot — and maybe it calls for some writing on the matter. But, for now...let's just say it had for long been on my mind, and it seems like where I feel best fit if I am based in Europe...

⚙️ and what's happening there?

Oh my — everything?!

I work in a really cool place, and I enjoy the company of all my colleagues — that is really nice.

But in the last few months I moved four times between places; then met new people, and made some friends; bicycles have become ever so important in my daily life, as I improve my maintenance skills; a sewing machine has made its way into my immediate surroundings. Life is generally bustling – it's summer time! – which stands in great opposition to life being still. I have preferences.

In any case, I try to have a life — whatever it means here, and now, under all the circumstances?

🗣️ jeg forstår allerede lidt nogle dansk!

(... men efter lidt mere end et år, er det ikke så overraskende, vel?)

Given the intentionality of these processes, a tentative language learning page is sprouting, with some thoughts and resources (Anki, Language Transfer, etc.)

📚 on my bookshelf:

So many things! I try to make notes on the things I read, and there are always a few books in my mind at any given moment...

After Lives
Abdulrazak Gurnah

Early Retirement Extreme
Jacob Lund Fisker

financial pragmatism, life hacks, and self-help come into a bar

The Mind Illuminated
Culadasa (John Yates)

best practical meditation advice I found, and it finds its way into my mind every morning

This Is Not a Drill
Extinction Rebellion

dire and harsh on climate, but uncannily hopeful about community and activism

Transcription
Ben Lerner

a day read, and as pleasurable as anything Lerner

🤸 and there's more, but...

...I have been a bit disorganised! You can check music records, computers, being around people, literature, etc. (e é claro que também escrevo em português).
