Las Teresitas beach brought me back to childhood. Golden sand, calm waters, and palm trees created the perfect backdrop for reflection. Tenerife's diversity amazes me every time. From volcanic black sand beaches to this artificial paradise made with Sahara sand in the 1970s. Each shore tells a different
Back in Puerto de la Cruz after two years, and honestly, it feels like coming home. This island keeps pulling me back for three reasons that make it perfect for the nomad life. First, the community. Reuniting with friends who feel like family, even after years apart. The warmth of
Rouen’s gothic spires pierce Normandy’s autumn sky as I stroll around in the local park. Today’s walk also crosses borders — I’m backing Planet Wild’s new push to shield Romania’s virgin forests. Rewilding feels legendary; supporting it feels right. 0:00 /2:58 1× Watch
Schönbrunn’s baroque gardens are stunning, but today the real highlight is reuniting with my nomad friend Marc Wieland. After podcast chats in five other countries, we’ve just ticked off our sixth—Austria! Marc left Switzerland the moment he heard I’d be in Vienna, proving once again that
Back on my home turf, crunching gravel in Silesian Park. Each step is a portal to childhood Saturdays—bike races, rollerblading crazes, and lying down in lush grass. Those weekends wired my compass toward shade, birdsong, and slow breaths among my Tall Green Friends. Today’s walk is a reflection

Essential USB-C cable that every nomad should have

Two decades across Australian outback and Japanese mountains taught me cables are safety lines. I found one 6-in-1 adapter handling everything — MacBooks, rechargeable batteries, game controllers, legacy and new Apple devices. Here's my review.
eSIM-only iPhone 17 Pro — it's the right time to ditch the SIM
January 20, 2026
In 2022 the eSIM-only iPhone was a bad idea. By 2025 the market evolved. I got iPhone 17 Pro from Japan — the eSIM-only version has a bigger battery than SIM models and remains cool. eSIM adoption finally makes sense.

The Web is unusable, and what can we do about it?
December 30, 2025
The Web attacks users with pop-ups, newsletter sign-ups, and privacy notices. Old generations can't navigate it. Even I struggle sometimes. But I found solutions: Brave browser blocks the mess and AI tools cut through complexity.
World Expo is Countries Theme Park — Osaka 2025
December 2, 2025
Where France dazzled with Louis Vuitton spheres, Korea's laser cube felt like Beat Saber IRL, and Poland served Grandma's kompot. Countries competed for attention like in a theme park—and it worked. Plus, the world's largest wooden ring.

November 25, 2025
