february 2020, koh samui, thailand

we did it!

me and my wife escaped polish winter and we’re enjoying the sun and the warmth of thai weather in january and february (and a tiny bit of march).

we were staying in chiang mai for a month, then we took a week off to travel around, and now we’re in koh samui.

this big change was made possible by us finding work at remote-first companies. time difference to our teams back in europe is around +6 hours, which is proving to be completely manageable.

of course we miss our families and our dog, but we love thailand - it’s our second time here.

taking this long trip was a good excuse for me to get a new - “proper” - camera. i used to shoot exclusively with ricoh gr (1st gen) for the past year or so, but i missed this hands on, involved feel one gets from a bigger camera. anyway, to make a long story short, i got a fujifilm x-t3 with two lenses (16 and 56 mm) and i’m loving it so far (despite the bulk and the weight).

that’s pretty much it for now.

p.s. you can find history of this page on github.
