I replied on Twitter but let's do it here also. What I really like is seeing a nice balance of #life stuff but also people working hard on their projects. There's no hate, no discussions, just people logging their activities and others liking/commenting.
It's nice (for myself) to work on a streak by doing work stuff but it's also nice to be able to log side projects, gym sessions, achievements and experiences.
What I would advise is to simply use the Telegram bot to log your activities and upload photos, and come around to wip.co daily to scroll through the other user's achievements. Pretty wholesome and inspiring.
Makes sense. How do you decide what to log and what not to?
I'm pretty open so I log tasks I work on for my side projects. I decided to log my gym sessions here because I post them in a Telegram group with friends so they see I've completed a session. The life part is just a diary of sorts, that I see people using here often and really liked. It's like the old days of social media where you just posted what you were up to (no staging or crafting photos) and that appeals to me. My day job is never posted and also my family stuff is minimal here.
Nice - this is really helpful - thank you for your unique perspective!
I've been taking this for 20+ years and helps to be stronger in the gym and have slightly better results. It tastes like nothing and there are no very special effects. Just a minor supplement you can take that actually works.
Just take the cheapest creatine monohydrate because it's the same as the more expensive one. Loading/cycling is not needed.

Same. I even mute words I'm interested in because I realize the most trending tweets are just stupid or engagement bait.
I really like the way you can mute words. I mute vigorously. If I don't like a topic: mute and never think about it again. Every trend or even words like 'war', 'trump', 'covid', 'football' etc get muted. Really makes my timeline better.
Also: instant blocking of accounts with annoying ads or ppl who post stupid things. There's an infinite amount of nice things to discover. Omit stupidity and annoying accounts.
X is my favorite social network.
I certainly need to use muting more often.
Ok I'm fairly confident to answer this question. I'm not traveling fulltime but check nomadlist.com/@jelmerdeboer to see my travel history.
I bring a 26L GoRuck GR1 backpack on ALL my travels. I never check any luggage and this backpack is also great for new lowcost airline regulations even prohibiting overhead luggage because it fits under the seat in front of me.
I pack:
- macbook + charger
- iphone + charger
- airpods
- toiletries
- 3 shorts
- socks + underwear for a week (do laundry on location)
- 5 t-shirts
- tank top
- pants
- passport / cards / some cash / pen + passport size notebook
- long sleeved shirt
- shoes of course
- sunglasses
I buy stuff at local Uniqlo / Zara when I need it (almost never).
This is it.
Thanks for the answer! It's basically what I have in my current backpack, but the pack itself isn't suitable for walking. So, I'll consider GoRuck or anything up to 40 liters, as I need some additional space just in case. :-)
One thing I need to drop is pants. I plan to travel only to countries that are warm or have summer when I'm there, so I don't need anything other than shorts. Thanks for that. :)
If you want to be at walking distance from a place, why ask where to stay? What are you looking for in Phuket? I'd say, you should stay north of the airport. Beautiful beach, very quiet.
I have been using my personal blog for over ten years now, and I only publish there. Have created my own audience which is growing and shrinking from time to time. Gives a sense of autonomy and ownership. But it all depends on your goal: do you want people to read it (and which people?) or do you just want to get the story out of your system. Personally, I always have both goals: I write to think first, and share it with the world because I know people enjoy it.
