  • Blog Post #6: Recovery

    Today is the day after the wedding of Sarah and Tom, and unsurprisingly, I am in a bit of a rough space. My back is feeling super rotten, and the drugs I have been taking to help make me feel all at sea. Nevertheless, there are no bad days. Today I have been able to…

  • Blog Post #5: Weddings

    Today I am going to the second of three weddings on this NZ trip. I really enjoy weddings, including the bits that people usually dislike, such as the speeches. I don’t really know the couple that well, but Ky is a bridesmaid, and I’m more than happy to come along for the ride. Love is…

  • Blog Post #4: Tend

    As readers of this blog know, I have sustained a TERRIBLE back injury, having strained myself on the water wakeboarding. However, the good news is that I’m feeling a lot better, and have gone from unable to get out of bed to being semi functional. I can walk, albeit slowly, and can sleep through the…

  • Blog Post #3: The Injury

    Today I got injured. Bad. I was out water skiing with friends this afternoon, and after getting up on the first go (whooo!) I ended up taking a serious stack. Now, water skiing involves (surprise) water, so it isn’t like smashing into a brick wall, but the combination of twisting, cold water, and no warm…

  • Blog Post #2: The run

    Ky and I have set the goal to run 2x5k each week for 52 weeks, and today we did number one. As usual, I was totally disorganized and left my runners at home, so ended up running the full 5k in bare feet. I don’t think I’d ever run more than 20m in my whole…

  • Blog Post #1: Getting Started

    I have been thinking about starting a blog for years, but now I have finally decided to bite the bullet. I really like my friend Dan Cullums daily posts, and I can tell he finds it really helpful to get his thought out, as well as share his life with an audience. My current plan…

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.
