What I am doing now / focusing on 2026:

  • 📚 trying to dedicate 30min every day to read
    • this year it should total up to 20 books.
    • Documenting these somewhere on here.
  • 🖊 writing weekly notes not so weekly, about what I am working on.
  • 👨‍💻 working on publishing my ideas, tools, thoughts, and other stuff here. With the goal to create a resource that one can reference and that helps others.
  • 🌲 taking care of formerly spruce forest that died through the effects of the climate crisis
    • Planted tree counter: > 1k
    • In 2026 I want to publish a status report, to come back to.
  • 🚵‍♂️ trying to ride my road/gravel bikes
    • at least two times a week
    • 5x over 200km
    • 1x over 300km

    • in total 10 000km

What I want to do next:

  • 🔁 establish a routine focused on reflection, reading, sport, and lifelong learning.
  • ✍ create a way to share my experiences of how the forest is affected by the climate crisis.
  • 🥾 hiking the Oandu-Ikla hiking trail in Estonia.
