No Internet between February, 26th and March, 14th, 2015
On Thursday, (February, 26th), I will fly to Cuba. We are taking the Air Berlin direct connection from Munich to Varadero. And our two Utopias, Silbermöwe and Roadster, will travel with us.
Barbara and yours truly will spend exactly two weeks riding our bikes as far as possible through the long island. During our preparations, we learned that, in Cuba, the internet is not yet very common. Apparently, the only way to get internet access is from special tourist hotels.
I plan to turn misery into a virtue and live without the internet for two weeks. It will be a first since many, many years ago in my life.
So: #nointernet and #noweb. #noTwitter and #noFacebook. Away from the virtual world. Into the real world.
Also, I will not plan anything, neither will I have an agenda. No itinerary. Just living in the here and now and enjoy life. Simply strolling through Cuba on our bikes – with wide open eyes and ears and, above all, with an open heart. Enjoying the sun and the warm air. And of an evening, I will just have to see where destiny takes us and where we can find a place to stay.
It also means that, during those two weeks, I will write/publish no IF blog articles. So: also #noIFBlog!
I might write down a few impressions and take a few pictures of the travels. You will get to read them afterwards.
Other than that, I want to totally liberate my brains from everyday concerns. And leave everything back in Munich that belongs there. And live in Cuby one hundred per cent.
Neither will I write my memoirs, regardless of the fact that there might be some rather interesting things to tell, especially about the last few years. …

Well, it would certainly be awesome – twittering from Cuba, wouldn’t it?
