A look back at better times

Better times are sure to return soon. Until then, how about some looking back at better times?

A lot has changed since I last was active on here. Back in the start of 2019, I had big ambitions of traveling a lot and reviving the old blog. Well, suffice to say the traveling part happened, but the blogging part never came to fruition.

There were times in 2019 I felt like I was grinding so hard that I couldn’t keep going, but I managed to press forward at a vigorous pace for the most part of the year. I ended up making it to 25 countries, some of them multiple times. It all amounted to looking like this:
