Project Lombok came to a close and I needed to take a breather. A breather for me looks like 9-10 blog posts in a week, 55 kilometers of running, gym sessions daily and meetings. Yes, I have trouble relaxing. It’s an issue. Having said that, just having a base for the week is already quite …

The Adventure Bag Movement began in Panama and the first clean-up event I did was a full-day adventure. More than 70 people came from all over Panama and camped in the parking lot of our sold-out hostel in El Valle de Anton. We did two long hikes that day and collected hundreds of kilograms of …
