Stop Binge Watching, Escape for real

A decision has been made to deal with few addictions.

One is netflix.

I decided to transform my addiction to binge watch TV as an opportunity for growth.

I'll reward myself with watching my favourite series after completing a number of hours of chores or more specifically necessary work.

I am aware that Netflix and any other form of addiction is an opportunity to escape from the harsh boring reality of being bound to a box somewhere in a building behind another box when I would like to be outside to feel the sunshine on my skin. I am aware that Netflix and any other form of addiction is an opportunity to escape from the harsh boring reality that I live in the United Kingdom and that there is no sunshine everyday.

Yet, if I want to go somewhere with the sunshine and work in a place where I can be a bit more outside, I need to finish my thesis. there is no other way around it. So I am rewarding myself to face my reality for a number of hours in order to escape in a dream world for a couple of hours at times until I can finally escape....

Can you do both at the same time? Yes you can do both, do not ever think that where you are is static, the place is constantly changing and it is within the details that you can find new meaning for oneself and if this is not enough, plan time in and go to come back different..

Horrid Airbnb Experience - Getting in touch with Airbnb

After our adventure with B., the recovering alcoholic, I decided to look through Airbnb for some cues on B. The profile of B. appeared OK. the people on the page did not complain of any issue with him whatsoever. Only one person said that ''he could not stay anymore in their property'' - does that mean that he could stay because he wrecked the place? or because they had a change of plan? Who knows. I could not even bring myself to put my dirty laundry out on Airbnb. B. has mental health issues. Am I the one who needs to make this personal matter public on a social media platform?  So I wrote '' B. cannot stay in my property anymore and I hope that he will find a group of people who will be able to support him''. Is it the appropriate language to use? I contacted Airbnb to let them know about B. - they gave me a call and kind of told me that I need to be careful with the people I am bringing to my home. I told them, yes but there was no indication...
