  • It isn’t just who you think

    There is a common sentiment over here in the States that America shouldn’t get involved in the Israel-Hamas war, because “it doesn’t involve us”. Perhaps, but that changes once you realise that there are 12 American citizens who are currently hostage, as well as 15 Argentinians, 12 Germans, six French and six Russians. There are…

  • Chicken and rice

    It’s the most popular meal in the world, apparently, and I got to enjoy it this evening. Don’t be fooled by the simplicity; while there are only two components, both can easily be screwed up, or elevated. Rice is a little finicky. I like to cook mine half stock, half water, and prefer Jasmine rice…

  • Late nights

    Working late tonight. Not always fun, but what was needed to be done is done. Looking forward to waking up tomorrow knowing the day ahead of me is under control.

  • Windy

    It was nuts this morning. Having grown up in Melbourne, I like to think I know my way around some gnarly weather, but I don’t think I have experienced ANYTHING as wild as what I dealt with this morning. As I wheeled my friend’s luggage to the Uber, the wind was legitimately whipping and nay…

  • A great weekend

    This weekend, my friend Oliver came to visit us in Denver. It has been a terrific weekend, filled with everything fun you could imagine in Denver. Last night I wrote about our time hiking in the Rockies, and how cool it was to see the nature and animals. What I didn’t get to write about…

  • Hiking

    Today my friend Oliver and I went hiking in the Rocky Mountain National Park. We had a terrific time. I have been to the park many times, but each time I go I genuinely love it even more. Spring is an amazing time to visit; the warm(er) weather combined with snow capped mountains makes the…

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.
