Especially with the knowledge that we were already down a quarter in 2022. So in April, I came across Conqueror Challenges, which offers various long-distance challenges within the time frame you set yourself. Quick reveal... In May 2022, I fou...

My binge-watching addiction

Posted on January 14, 2022January 31, 2022 by nickolai.kinny

While recently watching the newest season of Dexter: New Blood, I realised that the series hadn’t finished airing. This meant waiting another week for the finale episode and it made me feel both lost and deeply upset. Followed immediately by the realisation of how conditioned I’ve become to automatically expect autoplay and a constant stream of service. With data being as fast as it is we’re livi...

Life in lockdown

Posted on September 19, 2021September 19, 2021 by nickolai.kinny

Hello again, A lot has changed in the last 18 months and I’m sure none of us had lockdown or a pandemic on our travel vision boards! At the start of March 2020, I wasn’t worried, simply because I was unaware of just how the year would unfold. But as months started slipping by it became apparent to us just how serious things were and the implications it would have to our freedom of movement.So ...

My happy place.

Posted on January 20, 2014January 12, 2016 by nickolai.kinny

Most of us have a happy place, a place inside our heads where happiness and a state of being ecstatic is derived from. While some of us consider it a safe place, an escape, or sometimes merely a fond memory; My happy place will forever be Machu Picchu.

Drawing a blank…

Posted on June 14, 2011January 12, 2016 by nickolai.kinny

Have you ever tried drawing an intentional blank? STOP! Everything you're doing. DROP! Every other thought and imagine yourself, still in a blank white-walled room. It is not possible! I tried doing this by shutting everything out of my mind to find comfort and peace and to just be! It didn’t happen!! Even though i was staring at blank walls my mind was still ticking and my conscience talking (p...

A Self discipline need.

Posted on April 8, 2011December 29, 2016 by nickolai.kinny

Sometimes certain things happen to us which causes us to take a step back and question our motives, question our choices and then eventually question ourselves and who we've become.
