Still plenty of Holiday season vibes in here. Town is full of people, restaurants are doing great and among all the folks here there are plenty of tourists as well. The monastery in the following pics is a renowned tourist attraction in here. I didn’t went all the way up there for the sake of the holly spirit though.

I don’t know how many of you are celebrating Christmas and what time is it in your part of the world but in here it’s close to 4 PM as I am typing this post. I just had some traditional Christmas lunch and am now chilling on the couch looking at the Christmas tree and contemplating my life.

It's 00:04 as I am typing this post, and yesterday was the first day in close to seven years that I had not put out any blog post on Hive. The reason was not because I hit any writer's block or something like that, or that I don't like doing it anymore.

It's the first time I've seen a Bitcoin ATM in real life, and there's only one thing that goes through my mind right now: money laundering. Whether we like to admit it or not, Bitcoin is still the perfect tool for money laundering. I wish I had some money to launder through this ATM, tbh.

My first touch with social media was through hi5. I had my first account on hi5 sometime in 2006. I don't remember what happened with that social media platform, but I know that soon after hi5 was no longer a thing for me, I started with facebook.

I have finally decorated the Christmas tree. After keeping it on the balcony (watered and having plenty of fresh cold air) for about one week, I decorated it today.Given that I bought a nice holder for it that made it easy to install the tree, it did not take long to do that. It took me two trips to the shop to buy enough decorations to make it look decent.
