It's certainly been an interesting five weeks. Well the most colorful of my life to date.
A creative in advertising, I normally spend my days thinking up ideas and concepts for clients. This time my life turned into the idea... quite a shock to the system for the first few days, that's for sure. I'm not sure how I deluded myself, but it wasn't until I landed in Singapore that I realised the extent to which this project actually was a reality project. Stupid I know.
Now that I am back, my life somehow feels flat and drab... I am overwhelmed, in a state of exhaustion from using up a lifetime of adrenalin... but somehow I'm craving the fast-paced, stressy challenges of working myself out of impossible situations that I have become so accustomed to over the past few weeks... like having to find a high-speed internet contract that works across the baron outback of australia at 6.59am in the morning with 57 minutes before my train leaves, with no credit card, internet, money, proof of address, birth certificate or CD drive on two hours plane sleep. And if I don't find it I will have close to zero connection for the next week which is obviously not great for the blog!!! An hour in the life of a Nomad... every day felt like a 24-hour episode of the Amazing Race! Seriously.
A big thank you to Skype for having the confidence, honesty and enthusiasm to put their product to the test in such a full-on way. A pretty ballsy move for a company in this day and age! Love it.
