WheretoKim is one big photo book, a diary of my life so to say (a fun selection at least). And it has been online for one whole year. Wow!
September 2020 has not been a good blogging month for me: busy at work, preparations for my upcoming holiday to Austria, catching the last rays of sun pared with a 20+ degrees Celsius temperature, and last but not least: Crusader Kings 3 got released. Where do I find the time? I didn’t write anything in two whole weeks. Instead, I did a lot of other fun things.
Upcoming trip to Austria
Let’s focus on the most important one: soon I will travel to Austria for a three week holiday. I am looking forward to this trip very much. Afterward, I’ll write about all the interesting things I saw and did. Fresh travel-related content!
(Unless there are new lockdowns. I’m less hopeful than I was last week because the province I live in turned red for Germany a few days ago. And I can’t teleport…)
I’ve been looking at recently published books by Austrian authors to read for inspiration. Confession time: I am not dedicated enough to read books in German this month. And while I can find many famous works that have been translated to English – think of Zweig, Kafka, and the like – this is different for recent works. For most of you, German book recommendations might not be very interesting.
(I’m reading a book set in Australia now… what’s in the name?)
Crusader Kings 3
Instead of books, I am turning to the semi-historical game Crusader Kings 3 to relive history. The second installment is my all-time favorite game and I quite like the third one as well.
Playing as a count, duke, or king in 867 or 1066, I own or build all the castles I am planning to visit during my trip to Austria and southern Germany. Learning geography, experiencing historical struggles with warmongering neighbors, developing my land – both the valleys and the mountain areas. All the places I plan to visit are present. Soon, my dynasty will rule all of Austria!

WheretoKim turns 1
Returning to blogging: I didn’t want to let this important milestone go unnoticed: as of the 29th of August, my blog has been online for one whole year. Wow!
Last year, I started posting a blog once every two weeks because I went on holiday soon after. After my October 2019 holiday to South Korea, I soon increased my posting frequency to twice a week and later to thrice a week.
Now I’ll soon be going back to twice a week because of my upcoming holiday to Austria. But still, looking back I am proud of all the things I experienced and wrote about.
For me, WheretoKim is one big photo book, a diary of my life so to say (a fun selection at least). Sharing the inspiration. More coming soon! Let me know if you want to read more about a specific Dutch place of interest. While most of the world is out of reach right now, everything within my country is patiently awaiting exploration.
