Hi there! In this episode I want to give you a quick update on my New York experience (that’s been awesome by the way!). I’m also talking about my plans and focus for November 2019.
Here’s a VERY QUICK conclusion of what I talked about…
New York (and Ohio) Experience
- Had a great time and visited most important spots.
- Ate a lot of bagels and pizza!
- Visited most of the museums (MET, MOMA, Guggenheim, Frick Collection, The New Museum, The Natural History Museum and some more…).
- Visited different neighborhoods in Manhattan, as well as in Brooklyn and a bit of Queens.
- Met a couple of friends we made in the past.
- Took 2 walking tours in the south of Manhattan and Chinatown.
- Saw the statue of liberty by taking the ferry to Staten Island (then immediately ran inside to catch the ferry back – we spent literally 43 seconds on the island!)
- Went to see the Joker movie in a really cool, “vintage”, hipster theater.
- Then visited my uncle and family in Ohio, which was a GREAT way to wind down after NY.
- Then had a really horrible experience with American Airlines on the way back.
Overall this has been a great experience, and I definitely plan on coming back in the future.
Plans for November 2019
- One of my main focuses – The Plein-Air Challenge – Starting every day with a plein-air session.
- TikTok! Posting TONS of content there!
- Starting to build a proper online gallery for selling my artwork
- Sleep, health, workouts and nutrition
- Brainstorming a new course
- Experimenting with finalizing watercolor paintings without glass
Excited for this one. Not much left for 2019, and I want to make the most out of it!
Going Back to Work
Coming from a month-long vacation is an interesting experience. I’ve had it last year too (spent August in Ohio).
This time, however, it was more of a mix. On the one hand I felt happy to come back.
But on the other hand – it started getting dark earlier, which always makes me sad for the short transition period between seasons. I also felt like I’ll miss some of the freedom.
This is why I decided to not go back to work immediately, but rather spend a couple of days easing into it, and feeling again what it’s like to be on VACATION, but while AT HOME. It was actually a really smart move, and helped me get back on track better.
I’m now really into the routine, and despite working longer hours for the past couple of days – I feel connected with my goals and vision.
I’ll definitely keep you updated on how it goes.
Take care, and I’ll talk to you again soon.
