One blog to rule them all

I’ve been blogging on and off since the early 2000’s. I’ve blogged about linux, going to university, movies, programming, photography, moving to Rio de Janeiro, moving to Sweden, moving to Spain, gardening, traveling, learning to play the piano, learning to sew, learning esperanto…

Sadly, none of those blogs are alive today and I think the main reason is I was misguided by the idea that “you need a niche”. I tried to put all the things I enjoyed in my life into tiny individual boxes. For each box, a blog. As one of those persons who is into everything, I am never excited about anything long enough to keep writing about it forever.

Now I realised I don’t want to commit to one topic for the rest of my life. I want to have a truly personal blog that reflects my person. Maybe today I’m really into baking sourdough bread. Maybe tomorrow I’m really into wind-surfing. Who knows. I don’t need to create a wind surfing blog to tell the world how much I love it.

Everything bundled together, just like in real life. This will be the One Blog to Rule Them All.
