  • Blizzard

    I had a blizzard today at the Dairy Queen. It wasn’t that great. Think of it just like a McFlurry. Anyway, another experience to be had on this US adventure.

  • Memorial Day

    Monday was Memorial Day, the day where America recognises those who died serving in war. It is interesting that the US splits rememberance days across two; later in the year is Veteran’s Day, where the country recognises the contribution of those who have or are currently serving. Fortunately for me, I don’t know anyone who…

  • Should we take him?

    At the Airbnb we are staying at, there is a stray (??) cat that has been following us around. He’s a very fine specimen, but rather thin, and quite shy. This evening, while Ky and I were enjoying our dinner, he mustered up the courage to join us. He must have been hungry, because he…

  • A single lifetime

    I saw this tweet today on X, a platform that I have slowly been using more frequently. Human’s live abnormally long lives by mammalian standards, but they still feel short. Were I to live as long as my father, for example, I would already be more than halfway through my life. If I was Afghani….

  • “I win trophies”

    The Premier League season is over, and while my team came 7th (more on this later), I wanted to tip my hat to one person who has been receiving a gut full of hate, Erik ten Hag. Erik, or EtH as he is known on-the-lines, is the manager (aka head coach) of Manchester United, arguably…

  • Computer Museum

    I imagine you, dear reader, are probably a little tired of reading the updates of my time in SF, so this will be the last post. It is, however, a goody. As a team building activity – I guess you could call it that – a few of us visited the Science Museum in Mountain…

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.
