Why can’t you do it?

Quitting smoking cigarettes for me comes along with quitting smoking cannabis (already 10 weeks with no use and no interest) after many years of constant use and curbing alcohol use to a bare minimum (a much smaller quantity than a decade ago when my steady journey with alcohol began in the coming of age period of life). All of these changes took place over the last two and half months of my life with quitting cigarettes being the most recent change.

I drafted and wrote 90% of this article the day before I quit smoking…

Forget life as you know it!

Aside from organizing events myself, I love joining them wherever I live or travel to or go on vacation. Joining a small, local event can be really fun. You’ll meet other people who share your interests, maybe you grab a drink together or have an evening full of activities or a longer trip away. You’ll do something spontaneous with a group of strangers, some of whom may become longer-lasting friendships or perhaps just a good memory to savour in the future.

In my experience, these events have ranged from an evening drink in a famous square of Rome in Trastevere…

I came to the Netherlands over 3 years ago with no intention of staying longer than a month, and no longer than 3 months in mainland Europe.
