  • Such a nice place

    I have been in SF for work, and today I had the privilege of being on Stanford campus. It is clear why so many people want to work there. It’s such a lovely place. We are in the tail end of winter, but it’s still perfect weather. The campus is clean, tidy, and well maintained….

  • Roll Back

    I am in SF for work until Friday, and usually I stay with my pal the “Cashew King”. However, this time he had family in town, so I had to make my own last minute arrangements. San Francisco is an expensive city, and as I had blown most of my travel budget on flights, so…

  • Change of direction

    The last six months or so Ky and I have been grinding French on DuoLingo. It is fair to say our heart hasn’t really been in it. So last night, we decided to pivot to Portuguese. Why, or por que, you may ask? Great question, and the answer is that for us, right now, it…

  • Subscriber Bonus!

    I was successful in the recent Champions League Ballot, which was a bit of a thrill. Sadly, I won’t be able to make it. If you, or someone you know, would like a single ticket to Newcastle v Barcelona next Tuesday, let me know. You have 22 hours until my ballot window closes, and they…

  • Tap the sign

    I recently made a meme, so without any further ado, Look upon my works, ye mighty and despair: I think it will be in semi-frequent rotation in the coming months, and was inspired by the recent missile strikes in Iran. A more fun way of saying “two things can be true at once”, it is…

  • Depth v Breadth

    Ky and I were discussing drug legalisation the other day, and it was quite an interesting conversation. Colorado has fully legalised marijuana, and I think decriminalised psilocybin, better known as magic mushrooms. This means that where we live, you can go to your nearest dispensary (which there are PLENTY of), pick up a joint, and…

Why I started this blog

I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.

With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.

While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
