Last summer I decided to take a break from my office job and travel by train across the country, partly to clear my head and partly to do my bit for the environment. I’d been meaning to about my lifestyle for ages, but I kept putting it off because work always seemed to take . On the first day, I a small coastal town that wasn’t in any guidebook, and it felt like a discovery. In the evenings I’d look forward to trying local food and chatting to other travellers; was easy when everyone had a story to share. I also photography again, a hobby I only return to , and I realised how different it is to simply watch a place rather than rush through it. Without constant notifications, I could focus better, sleep more deeply, and even a simple exercise routine. By the end of the trip I had to choose between staying connected online or more often, and the answer seemed clear: technology is useful, but it shouldn’t take control. Back at work, I’ve tried to stick to that plan, although it isn’t always easy when deadlines are tight and messages keep coming in.
