Out of network blog
This hasn’t happened before this year. I usually find some way to finish my blog for the day. But yesterday I couldn't. The reason wasn’t something negative.
I went camping for the first time since I moved to Tokyo. I went camping outside Tokyo to Yamanashi. We were inside the forest and there was no network. I did have time to write this blog, but due to network issues, I could not do so.
Having no network actually turned out to be a good thing. It was nice to be detached from the phone and technology. I did an experiment with a social media detox before and might think I need to do it again. It felt really great having not to think about my phone and notifications.
A lot of times we complain about weak wifi and lousy network connections. But sometimes it might be a good thing to get detached from our phones.
