Traveling in Troubled Times 4: Windscreen.
Part 3. All this, and I still beat the plane to the gate. They were delayed in Dubai, probably also due to the rigorous checks that had to be done. Hey, I’m not complaining, the more they check, the safer I am anyways, so why complain about someone trying to guarantee your safety? That’s why…

Traveling in Troubled Times 3: Grounded
Part 2. We reached the airport precisely at 06:45. I had made sure to be prepared- At this point, I was fully kitted out in my mask(s) and PPE, and all my bags were tightly zipped up. We got our temps checked even before we entered the airport, and were given forms to fill, with…

Traveling in Troubled Times 2: Isolate.
So by now, you realise that I was forced to travel during a time where everyone has to stay put. “I fear no man, but this, it scares me.” Or something along those lines. I was legitimately fearful- not for me, but for the family members back home, who had been heeding the instruction to…

Traveling in Troubled Times 1: Sanitize.
Prologue. Travel. We love to travel. We cover great distances in a minuscule amount of time. We take our bags and passports, and we’re off. To infinity and beyond. Not any more. We now face a new kind of challenge. At first we feared the flying. What was this new fan-dangled metal tube? Dangerous right?…

InfiniToast.
I seem to be on a trend here. A breakfast trend. And I’ll tell you why. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. The only thing better than breakfast is the second breakfast (and elevenses of course). Anything actually can pass for breakfast. A scone? Yes. A flapjack stack lathered with the sweetest syrup…

Fill ‘er up buttercup
Ah coffee. You either love it, or you don’t. Some drink it for the stimulus, some for the taste. Me, I just enjoy the process of making it. There are many ways to skin a cat, and the same is true for coffee. You could meticulously titrate it, pour it precisely over grounds, you could…

LeviToast®
I bought a new toaster this week, and it comes with a feature not really… advertised.It literally catapults the toast a good 5-6cm into the sky. Like really just yeets the bread into the stratosphere. While that may be extremely comical, it poses a legitimate problem. I keep losing my toast. Like straight up, it’s…

Working from Home III
Do you ever get that feeling? That you’re not who you want to be. You’re not where you want to be in life. You’re not “far enough” in the story. You’re behind in some way. So many more people, so much younger, so much more success. So much more going on for them. More opportunities,…

Working from Home II
Ah nostalgia. What a funny concept. Longing for a time once past. When things were simple, easier. When things made sense. A lot of the times, people become nostalgic for an era or locality of previous centuries. To have lived in the Italian renaissance. To have explored the oceans amongst the vikings. To walk like…

Working from Home I
Is it harder to be good or easier to be bad? Well both, actually. The way I see it, bad is good in the short term, but good is good in the long term. Everything you think is satisfaction now, is useless later, but everything boring now, is useful later. But, you may ask, What…
