Places

Cities I’ve been to, and some places I like

I was a digital nomad for lots of 2019, 2023, and 2024, living out of a suitcase. Those were the years I travelled to the most places. I am not compelled to travel like that again, but I’m glad I did it. Below, for some cities, I’ve made lists of my favourite spots.
