Why don’t you like Japan anymore? Because people I’ve met there have no empathy and are oblivious to everything around them, makes me think it’s exactly the opposite I’m looking for. Is that the reason you don’t watch anime anymore? Oh, about that, I also don’t watch movies or anything else anymore either. Don’t feel the need to be entertained anymore and value my real life too much to waste it sitting in front a computer…
"About putting yourself out there"Category: life
Man, I’m almost 30. You’re not even 29. Almost 30 is terrible! Why? Well, I’ve been wasting my life. I don’t want to turn 30 and realize I’ve never cycled around South America, never took the Trans-Siberian across Russia, never climbed Kilimanjaro, never saw the northern lights. That’s crazy, what have you been doing with your life? I don’t know, time just slept away somehow. Just like that? Yeah, I don’t know what happened!…

Probably no other moment had a greater impact on my life as those 10 seconds when I was walking around the pedestrian street in Rosario, Argentina and saw a familiar face walking towards me. It was Ariel Gutierrez, he was listening to some song with his headphones but he wasn’t just singing along, he was shouting the song, so loud everyone was staring and creating an opening for him to walk through as they…
"About Ariel"
I’m always hiding in the bushes at night. Hiding from the people and the police because I find it sickening the fact that I live in a society that has to pay for sleeping, and frowns upon those who refuse to do so. Often wondering if there are others like me out there, people hiding, in the same city, maybe in a nearby bush, people who are also wondering if there are others like…
"Someone’s hiding in the dark"
These days I saw lots of rainbows in the glacier, because it rains every day, and was thinking what did our ancestors think about rainbows? and northern lights? and earthquakes? And those fireballs in Laos? They should have been so confused! I wonder if they were humble enough to admit they hadn’t the vaguest idea what they were, or maybe they just rushed to attribute them to some supernatural source, because hey, they were always…

The first Korean song I heard, was probably Valenti or no1 by BOA which was not really Korean, but probably Japanese, because she is Korean but sings in Japanese for some reason. I heard it by accident because it was part of the song selection of the game pump it up that we were playing every day, and I thought, whoa, what is this fresh sound, so easy to listen, so, just so bubbly and…
"No1"
As I said yesterday, I will try to post more about daily life stuff. When I was approached by these people from the Christian religion I talked about int he last post, I was a bit scared, because by stating your religion as soon as you first meet someone you’re establishing a difference between the 2 of you and bringing up a subject that is likely to make the other person feel uncomfortable. If I were…
"About the christian family"
23/6/2013 I have decided to talk a bit less politics and talk more about my daily life, feelings and thoughts. Of course, sometimes I feel down and a bit worthless like most people do, but then I think about it and realize I’m actually really lucky and most people reasonably envy my lifestyle. It’s unique and strange, but quite interesting also, because I chose to live without using money, or using way less than everyone…

Becoming the spokesman of an anti-tobacco campaign in Taiwan. 30 pull-ups in a row (I’m at 15 now). Bench press my own weight plus 30kg. Do some volunteer work for at least half of the year. Get down to 10% body fat. Embracing dubstep, or maybe not. Moving to Russia and earning a living there by doing something illegal. Becoming more self-aware. Not teaching English. Keep practicing yoga every day. Reducing the use of public…
