Preparing for my #SummerVacation #train trip: saying goodbye to my cat & my room; locked&loaded for 3 weeks in Croatia: the #beach & #DeGrowth conf in Zagreb & #LikaLodge after that… & hoping that #flooding has spared the train tracks in Germany, Austria, Slovenia…
… I’m leaving the sea today… This visit was not as connecting nor brilliant nor energizing as I wished / expected / was used to… ah well… it was the combination of heat, illness & time… at least I was as kind to myself as I could…
@becha A wise man once suggested that expectations are best avoided as unfullfilled hopes (and wishes I suppose) are somehow easier to accept. So, now with this experience in the bag, it seems more likely that your hopes will be met next time, yay!
(I miss the sea)
@becha i can relate to that. when you see the sea first time after a long trip: pure bliss :)
@outi ‘90s… with a dip into ‘80s .. and local mostly :)
sounds absolutely the best!
local too can be totally fun! (esp if you are a local), but i remeber enjoying many kinds of good music from different cultural / musical zones.
like, i'm finnish, and it was tremendous fun to go jogging in eastern finland some years ago in the beat (and pace) of russian dance pop 😁
(in eastern finland the border is near and you can receive the other fm:s)
