I'm a big fan of the movie The Matrix and one of my favourite scenes is the following part:
When Neo says βThere is no spoonβ, it signifies his evolution to a consciousness beyond logic, where anything is possible.

Yesterday I bought my first NFT and told some friends. The first question was: "What is an NFT?" Let's dive into it.
NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. Mhm... That does not make it clearer.
Maybe it's easer to explain first what a Fungible Token is. It is a token, like Bitcoin, which can be traded…
The first time I heard about NFTs was in a podcast hosted by Tim Ferris in April 2021. Tim was talking to Vitalik Buterin (co-founder of Ethereum) and had his good friend Naval Ravikant join as a guest. So even though I am tech-savvy, I didn't understand the concept right away. After the podcast, I…

I can take as many "books" as I want with me.
I improve my English every time I…
I always thought by being born and raised in a german speaking country like Switzerland, that the language I think, feel, and express myself deep down is German. I learned Albanian through my Mother who always spoke to us in that language, but I never went to a school or anything to learn the language…
During my travels, I noticed that you do not need to speak the same language in order to understand each other. I encountered it in many Southeast Asian countries, where I couldn't speak the local language and my counterpart couldn't speak English, so we had no language to interact with.
That's what I thought, at…
Most of you would answer with your first name, last name. Well, that's not who you are. That's just two words. Your parents gave them to you. If you answer by indicating at yourself, well that's not you either. That's just your body. Your hand, your head.
So, who are you?
That's a very profound…
My mood, physical and mental health improve drastically when I am by the seaside - why?
Walking on the beach provides considerably πΊπΌπΏπ² π²π
