The deceleration of life
Hi Martin,
thanks for your travel impressions and the marvellous photo of your watch next to a QM II bell!
I remember reading an article about someone who intentionally did the same as you: to slow the distance and to allow body and mind to accomodate. In a world where one of our modern idols is speed at any cost, this requires a clear mindset to do different. Very impressive what you did - Í´d also like a lot to do the transatlantic passage with the QM II one day.

Fun photo, Martin!
How was the crossing? The QE II seems like a nice, slow, luxurious way to travel! I like your photo very much! The picture of your GO with the ship's bell is wonderful and whimsical. Cheers, Daos
Always wanted to do the Transatlantic Crossing...
Been trying to get around to doing this transatlantic crossing for many years, back when it was still conducted by the QE2. Please tell us about the voyage when you get a chance!
Thank you, everybody
I will try to put together some impressions of my trip across the ocean on TimeOut. However at the moment I am a little short on time, so please be a little patient with me Best regards, Martin
