Freedom of a new beginning
By
Sebastian
Naturally, I try to see the positive in every lesson learned. The beauty in a blank hard drive is that you get to start over again, organising your digital “life” in a different way. Almost like a baby whose neurons are not yet wound in a certain way, I find myself totally free, able to […]

Lisa’s input actually helped a lot, because my goal was to better organize my time. The essence would be, stick to your plan. Well, moving involves a lot of planning and doing it alongside […]
