Life gets really busy and sometimes it gets busy rather quickly. This past week seemed to pass so quickly with all the things that needed to be done.

Upcoming Travel

I'm basically going to be traveling on a tight budget for the next 6-7 weeks. I wish I had done this sooner but better late than never.

For a long time I wanted to travel to a few places in Europe and after a lot of time spent getting my itinerary right and saving up for the trip I'm leaving to Europe in the next few days to come. Steemfest presents a unique opportunity and reason to travel aboard and since I've been on Steemit and associated with the event I'm always looking forward to the next one.

I'll be there at SF3 and I hope to see you too!

36 Countries and counting

This a map that indicates the current attendees for Steemfest 3 that @roelandp put together. It's not complete as there is no obligation to leave details about your location in the ticketshop. There are attendees from 36+ countries here. Incredibly isn't it? If you haven't bought your ticket yet buy it from the Steemfest website here

Witness

My witness "firepower" is back online and it's running stable. Currently the witness is on HF19.12 as it's very stable and HF20.1 is replaying on the backup node. Once it's done I will update it to HF20.2 and then switch over and update the primary node with the latest HF20.2. So looking forward to getting this completed soon.

Dealing with Stress

Last few months have been rather stressful for quite a few reasons. Last two weeks was also extremely stressful for some personal reasons including health and I haven't taken a real break in ages. However, I've managed to take some time off from my desk and handle these situations and with 3 more days at home I think i'm nearly ready to head out once again.

Tarik Pe Tarik (Date On Date)

Supreme Court of India adjourned the case: RBI vs Cryptocurrencies to 25th of September on 18th of September. Hence I didn't carry an update on that as there wasn't anything new to add. However, I will write more on this soon enough.

Steem Apps

I've been testing out a couple of mobile apps for the Steem blockchain: @partiko and @the1ramp, and found them quite interesting. However, currently I'm still using Steemit to blog. However, @steempeak, @esteemapp and @busy.org are also great. Since I generally write posts only when I'm at my desk I'm excited to switch to a mobile app or a better UI to the blockchain so I can do a few travel posts on the go.

Rush Hour

Looking back at the past few months of this year it feels like 'I am standing still' in a train station and 'the year' was 'the train' that just went through the station at speed! Does anyone else feel this way? It seems like as the years roll on, time is passing quicker!

Anyway, there are so many things I want to share in the days to come. One at a time I suppose.
