Ardennes: Glorious Walk in Winter Sunlight Recently me and my partner visited the Ardennes region in Belgium. It is a lovely wooded area, with rolling hills and perfect distance from the Netherlands for a trip! As you can see in the picture we chose a glorious sunny day to go for this walk, which was about 15 km in length. The Mind Just as a bit of background, I have been struggling with my body and mind a bit lately. I shall spare you the details but after a severe…

If I Could Be Charlemagne Well if I could be Charlemagne I would! I love this weeks weekend engagement, because I could be anyone I wanted to be. As a historian that is the stuff we dream of! And who wouldn't want to be Charlemagne? Even his name is cool! Who Would I Be? For those of you not that familiar with medieval history I might need to explain myself. Imagine this: In 476 AD the West Roman Empire fell, ceased to exist. The empire that had dominated most of Europe for…

Wednesday Walk to the Voting Station This is my first post in the Wednesday Walk community on Hive, but wanted to share it here on read.cash as well! The idea of the community is to take the time to go for a walk on wednesday, take pictures and make a post. I had a nice walk yesterday and one with a purpose as well. It was voting day yesterday in the Netherlands for the local council. I could decide where in my city I wanted to vote and decided to vote in the local park…

To The Moon And Beyond When I was a small girl I had only one dream of what I wanted to be when I grew up. I devoured every TV show on it, my whole room was covered in posters of it. I read as much as I could on the topic, reading every book in the library on the topic. I was going to Mars. At least, that was the dream. I dreamt of the great red planet. Knew all known pictures, studied maps and read every article that came out with new ideas on the planet. I had this huge…

My Final 250 Minutes Science has really advanced lately, apparently we can now be told exactly how much time is left in our lives. Unfortunately it seems I only have 250 minutes left to live.... before you get worried, I am not actually dying, but participating in the weekend-engagement topic on Hive! Source https://pixabay.com/images/search/time/ Who Would You Call? It is an interesting thing to ponder on. If you knew you only had limited time to live, and you were aware of…

Our Adventure on Ben Nevis In the spring of 2019 my partner and I had just finished work on our van and decided to test living/vacationing in it by going up to Scotland for two weeks. We would also finally get to climb the mountain we both wanted to go up: Ben Nevis! There she is in the distance, isn't she a beauty!? The Plan So the plan was to do the arete of Ben Nevis, as we didn't want to do the touristic route and we wanted to do a bit of a scramble (we are both climbers…

March Earnings of a Small Fish Do you ever wonder what common people without huge piles of money make in passive income? Well this is the place to be!! I, teacher, currently not investing any of my own money in crypto will show you what I manage to make each month to enlarge my pile of crypto currencies. February was not my highest earning month, but I did alright. I feel like March was much the same, work was still crazy busy and I didn't always have time to put into…
