Greetings
to all you lovely ladies and gentlemen out here on this world wide
web. Wow, its Friday again already and its both scary and amazing how
fast time seems to fly these days. I am actually starting to lose
track of time at the moment. Anyway, the weekend is just around the
corner and for most of you, that means a two-day break from everyday
stress and obligations. So, do you have any plans for the weekend or
are you going to wing it like a champ? When it comes to me, it will
be more of the usual. All work and very little play. Closing up to
the end of the month and that means more work that needs to be
handled as usual, at the same time I have a few posts that need to be
worked on as well.
So
I guess its time for me to move on and get started on today's topic.
As you can see from the headline, this is post number two who are
focusing on the series of photos that I managed to get my hands on,
back home from Norway. In total it was about 70 photos, but I have
only plans for one more post after this one. Just to have it said,
this friend of mine has some amazing photographer skills and this is
one of the reasons why I want to showcase them here on my blog and I
do hope that you take some time to check her out on Instagram and
Twitter. I will include links to her profiles at the end of this
post. To be honest, I do feel she deserve the attention and my
gratitude for letting me use them on my blog.
On
to something else and some rambling from my part. Because lately, I
have been thinking a lot about the progress that my blog is having or
in many ways lack of it. Okay, I am not creating my content purely
for the views or the clicks, but because I find it interesting and
love sharing my experience as an expat and adventurer. At the same
time, I do enjoy the fact that people visit my blog and check out my
content, but it happens in a much slower rate than what I would like
it to happen. Then again I shouldn't really complain either, but one
thing is for sure. I have kinda managed to stray out from where I had
imagined the direction would be and this might be the reason for the
slow progress, or maybe it purely hangs on the content itself?
I
did start this blog over the fact that I love to create and wants to
tell my own story as an expat. I am doing that in many ways, but at
the same time, I do feel that there is a lot of running in circles as
well. So what I am thinking about right now is to go back to start
and work my way in a much better direction. Focus on the topics that
were intended from the beginning. Yes, I will continue to write
personal posts, but at the same time produce on larger rate posts
that are relevant to the main topic. As I see it maybe publish two
personal posts a week and one either related to travel or expat facts
once a week, while I am doing this maybe work harder on reaching
daily updates at some point.
At
the same time, there are a few other topics I want to focus on, but
with a different blog. I am a person who is very interested in
history, horror movies, politics and for that matter religion. Yes, I
am a semi-religious person. Politics and religion are in many ways
excluded since these are some really hot potatoes and that's not me.
On the other hand, horror movies are more up my alley or movies in
general and the idea I am kinda working on is starting a movie blog
where I focus on upcoming releases and reviews on new and old movies.
I feel that this might be something that I can work on without it
crashing with my main blog or am I now about to walk into a
minefield?
At
least this is a project that I really do want to embark on and if not
for anything else but to check out the potential. Just to have it
mentioned, horror movies are my favourite genre and has been so for
as long as I can remember. I remember when I and my cousin were
watching Friday the 13th in secret and how it both scared me and
fascinated me. To such a degree that I even tried to write my own
version of the storyline. No, I do not have the script anymore, got
trashed many years ago, but I still do enjoy the art of writing as
you can see. Anyway, when it comes to this new idea that I am having,
I do need to think it through and not just jump into it and end up
totally losing focus on what's important.

Well,
these are some of the things that have kept me busy and occupied my
line of thoughts in the past few days. I am a guy that can have a lot
of ideas up in the air at the same time, but very few of them really
lands in the end. When it comes to the movie blog, this is something
I will play more within the weeks ahead. Because it seems like a
project that fits me perfectly if you know what I mean? What do you
think, would a blog like this be of any interest or should I just
drop it in the planning stages? More or less as I am finishing off
this post, I do have a brand new one in post-production. This one is
more of the travel story type. I want to call it, my first date with
a tropical destination.
