It’s a beautiful Sunday here in San Juan, but at the moment I’m tucked into my bed with the AC blaring. It’s oddly comfortable to work in the bed when I stack my pillows up, but not ideal. I still haven’t found the optimal place to write in my apartment. The second bedroom is a …
Writing Challenge Week 1
Just a tender week after introducing my writing challenge, and talking about how I planned to get my average of 1,000 words-per-weekday done on the weekdays, I just finished Friday’s 1,000 words tonight (it's Sunday). But I finished! My challenge is to get 21,000 words done during the month, and I’m happy to currently be …
Back in PR
Six days ago I landed back home in lovely sweltering-hot San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Last Week in Stockholm
I’m going into my final week in Stockholm before I head to Bali for what I think will be two months. I need to book my ticket back asap (you can’t go there without a return ticket), as well as somewhere to stay. I’ve been so focused on trading work that I’ve forgotten some of …
Back to Work
I’m sitting in a tech-focused office in Stockholm, finally at the point of being unproductive in my apartment. When I first arrived a few weeks ago everything was new, and I could easily labor for hours at home. I still put in decent hours last week between the apartment and coffee shops, but I got …
