Ex-IT, involved in government missions โ€” I walked away, broke the rules, and built life on my own terms. 8+ years, endless roads, zero regrets. Minimalist nomad. Freedom is a lifestyle, not a destination.

Swimming pool day with a Kilimanjaro view ๐Ÿ—ป โ€” absolutely unreal. The place itself was poorly maintained: no lockers, dirty showers, zero privacy, very public toilets. Entrance fee: 7,000 TZS. Old pool, great weather. The view saves a lot โ€” not everything, but enough. ๐Ÿ“ Moshi, Tanzania #nostr #travel #moshi #tanzania #kilimanjaro #nomadlife #travelnotes

At breakfast, Kilimanjaro briefly showed itself. By the time I was done and sitting with my second coffee, it had already disappeared back into the clouds. A truly gigantic mountain โ€” impossible to ignore, even when hidden. The photo is from a hike in December 2023, during a previous stay here. Some places stay with you, no matter how often you come and go. My time here is coming to an end. Today is my last day. Greetings from Kilimanjaro. ๐Ÿ”๏ธโ˜• #kilimanjaro #moshi #tanzania #africa #nostr #travel #ontheroad #nomadlife coffeechain ##plebchain #nostr image

A slow, quiet day in Moshi โ€” too strong coffee, laundry, walks in my Earth Runners, fading Christmas Tree blooms, a smoothie at the Wishing Tree, and rice & beans to end the day. Ordinary moments, captured in words. ๐ŸŒฟ Read the full story on my blog! https://ecency.com/travel/@rubenstorm/a-slow-day-in-moshi #Moshi #Tanzania #NomadLife #SlowLife #DailyJournal #Travel #Reflection

Almost 9 years on the move โ€” not driven by wanderlust, but by change. Travel was never the plan. Life decided, and I kept moving. No country counting, no final destination. Just motion, detours, and what you learn about yourself along the way. Letโ€™s see which direction this year takes. Countries Iโ€™ve been to: ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ด๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฝ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ด๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ผ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ผ #ontheroad #nomadlife #lifechanges #journey #slowtravel #movement #perspective #longtermtravel #travel #travellife #nomadlife #nomad

Got a terrible haircut yesterday โ€” the barber treated my head like a sculpture, moving clippers slowly with curves and corners. I didnโ€™t trust the process, and it looks awful. Would never go back. โšก #Haircut #NomadLife #TravelStories #plebchain #article #DailyLife #Misadventures View article โ†’

Got a haircut today. The barber handled my hair like a carpenter handles wood โ€” not cutting, carving. ๐Ÿ’ˆ๐Ÿชต๐Ÿ˜‚ #haircut #nomadlife #travel image

Slow day in Moshi, Tanzania. After breakfast, I stayed for another coffee, then grabbed quick street food for lunch. Supermarket stop, tea from the bakery, and back to the hostel to drop my bag. Long walk to a gas station โ€” wrong one. The booking office was at another station between the bus stop and the supermarket, so I walked it all again. Passed Kibo Palace and went up to the rooftop to check on Kilimanjaro. Clouds hid the mountain, but I still took a few photos. Finally found the right station, got my bus times and prices, and called it a day back at the hostel with a Coke, a cup of tea, and a chocolate cake. #nostr #travel #moshi #kilimanjaro #coffeechain #plebchain #teachain

Morning under Kilimanjaro โ˜•๐Ÿ”๏ธ Short night, sleep only came after 2 a.m. and I was up again before 7. Cold shower, rooftop breakfast, coffee in hand. Kilimanjaro stood clear this morning, free of clouds, sharp against the sky โ€” a quiet reminder of where I am. Today is about bus prices, timetables, and places to stay. My visa in Tanzania is ending, so every decision matters. Soon Iโ€™ll head into town and face the โ€œmzungu priceโ€ โ€” where everything suddenly costs more just because youโ€™re white. For now, Iโ€™ll finish this coffee and let the day unfold. โ˜• #coffeechain #plebchain #nostr #travel #nomad #kilimanjaro #tanzania #slowtravel #digitalnomad #wanderer #freedom #lifeontheroad

All afternoon in a small cafรฉ at the foot of Kilimanjaro. Daypack on the table, laptop open, finishing the blog post I started yesterday. No AC. Just open windows, open doors, and warm air drifting through the room. When it was time to pay, the card machine was dead. I found just enough cash in my bag โ€” paid the cafรฉ and grabbed street food on the walk back to the hostel. The post is live now. Letโ€™s see who it reaches.
