What I'm up to right now

Updated May 19, 2026. Inspired by nownownow.com.

I'm in Kathmandu, working from home most mornings and walking in the late afternoon when the light goes gold. Recently back from a slow trip to Mustang.

Working on

Writing more in the journal — aiming for one entry a week.
Software work during the day. Side projects on weekends.
Slowly editing footage from Mustang into something watchable.

Reading

The Snow Leopard — Peter Matthiessen. Re-reading.
Four Thousand Weeks — Oliver Burkeman.

Thinking about

How much of what I call "productivity" is really just avoiding the harder, slower work of paying attention. Also: where to go next. Probably somewhere in the hills.

Not doing

Saying yes to things I don't want to do. Scrolling first thing in the morning. Pretending I'll catch up on every group chat.
