Somewhere during the last days of September, I got on a plane with my brother with destination Venice, Italy. This is the second time I’m visiting Italy this year. In January Rome and now Venice. I’ve been traveling a lot this year. I can’t say I didn’t enjoy it, I always wanted to “see the world”, but after returning from Rotterdam, last summer, I’m beginning to feel anxious only at the thought of leaving again. Rotterdam took it’s toll on my personal comfort and it’s gonna take a while till I will be happy to travel again.Nevertheless once I was on the plane, I was alright. The ride was smooth and the view just before landing was breathtaking: an endless waterline full of small boats with their sails glittering in the orange sunset. The airfield was just a few feet away from the water.
We checked in at a nice hotel in a small town near Venice and after a 20 minutes bus ride we were there: a big square filled with buses and cars. The place where land ended and water began. As the whole city is built on pylons over the water, the only way to get around Venice is trough its maze of narrow streets and channels. From now on we either walked or took a boat to get us from one place to another. It took us a while to get accustomed before we started to explore Venice. In the two days we would walk in and out of Venice, visit the islands and enter lots souvenir shops.

No excuses anymore:
It’s been a month … I don’t know why in the last month, whenever I opened this page, I didn’t manage to get myself to write anything. It’s not that nothing happened this last month, but I just didn’t feel like writing. I decided not to say “sorry” whenever I don’t post for a longer period. It’s stupid. It’s my blog and I’ll update it whenever I feel like updating it. This blog is supposed to be about me, about my experiences and some of my feeling and I won’t post just to have another piece of text in here. Judge me if you like, this is one thing I won’t change here.
In the last month was “the month of things not happening”:
The start of my own business is now uncertain. I hate when I’m depending on others to reach my goals. Now because two of my friends not getting along with eachother, I’m back to square one. I also had to turn down some very good offers. After all that planning and dreaming I’m now rethinking my options and trying to find the determination to get this going. Deadlines have moved to next year. One down.
