I made this photo exactly eleven years ago, on December 2, 2012. I took it when we lived in a building in Moldeparken in Vejle, where many citizens from non-Western countries lived. Hence, the title that followed the photo on Facebook: "Snow in da ghetto".

I really like those warm colors.

I received my Seiko SNKL1 yesterday, and I think it is an amazing piece you get for the money. Because of its elegance and simplicity, people think it has 'the looks of a Grand Seiko'. :)

I ordered it together with a sapphire glass, and it really pops the dial of the watch. Since the original bracelet isn't of high quality, I changed it to this leather brown strap. I like this watch a lot. It has a perfect size (38 mm), and I think that Rob from Monsterwatches even adjusted the movement, because my SNKL1 is pretty accurate.

My wife and I spent five wonderful days in Macedonia, primarily exploring the capital, Skopje. We flew from Hamburg Airport to Skopje International Airport on Monday, albeit with a 40-minute delay (as usual, Wizz Air didn't provide a clear explanation), and returned last night, braving one of the worst storms to hit this part of Europe. Fortunately, our journey back to Denmark went smoothly.

I admit, I am a strange cookie. Sometimes I can remember the details about something that happened years ago. Very often I know where exactly on a page I read a particular sentence in a book. In the same way, I remember I decided to finally switch to Linux from Windows four years ago during my daughter's football training. I was fed up with technical issues I was having with Windows 10, but also Microsoft's increasing telemetry and constantly activating “features” on Windows, even though I deactivated it. I remember there was a heavy rain, and luckily I even have a short video recording of it. For some reason, I always like documenting an interesting meteorological condition.

I am having this website for about twenty-one years. A few days ago I used Wayback Machine to check out previous versions of avdibeg.dk, and, boy, did it change. The earliest version they keep of my website is the one from November 22, 2002, and it looked something like this.

And the day has finally arrived. My dear Hana has successfully completed her final high school exam and proudly adorned her blue graduation cap.

I've always believed that this moment holds a special significance, marking the beginning of a new chapter in life. It opens doors to new expectations, responsibilities, plans, and aspirations.
