on july 17 2019 i flew to LA. just 13h after leaving my job.
my entire life in this bag. i told people, that i& #39;ll go on some travels. and i wasn& #39;t starting a company, really. but i did.
a personal story.

i was sitting in venice. sketching and drawing the very beginning here.
the street abbot kinney won me in a second. it felt like the right place to start a journey. that would require all my creativity

i listened to the many people telling me to take the car from LA to SF.
i slept in the car. the first night without a sleeping bag (bad idea). the second night with one next to the beach (good idea)
california is truly amazing.

jack had a hotel booked with a not-too-big bed. without hesitation he shared.
malte (photo) and i took a ride to lake tahoe. what a place.

@tryamie is truly made out of countless museum and gallery visits.

this is one of the first prototypes. i was experimenting with chatbots to build habits.
admittedly, it wasn& #39;t a fun product. all those great products aren& #39;t intuitively perfect. they are 10.000 times changed and often change their appearance fully.

i had a flight booked from JFK back to SFO.
it was for a potentially life-changing meeting.
it didn& #39;t work out and bothered me for much longer than it should& #39;ve. i was exhausted.

back in ny we had SO much pad thai and thai ice tea here.

looking back at this, none of this is linear.
it could& #39;ve very easily ended. in favor of security, a full-time job and friends close by.
i am glad it didn& #39;t.
