Why so serious?

Well, hello there.

I know that we haven’t been doing much FPV or any type of “exciting content” in a little while. There are a lot of reasons for that and I have decided to remain venerable with you and share the things as they are. And I understand that many people don’t really enjoy this type of content and rather wonder “Why so serious?” or “Why so emotional?”.

Well… Let’s start from the beginning - isn’t this a good place to start?
Visa issues and changing my contract with Airspeeder to an “Athlete contract” has caused me to leave Australia after just 10 months since coming there. And it was a hit. I planned on staying there, and I was preparing my life and house as if that was the plan.

This has unfortunately changed, and everything that I worked so hard for had to be moved in time. Things sold, and moved to the other continent (Here: Europe) again.

Moving continents twice a year is nothing that I would wish for my worst enemy, especially if you go full throttle with it and just get rid of your old life (or have to get rid of your old life).

To make it clear: I haven’t really got to the groove of things in Australia yet, and I had to move out already.

To keep myself busy - I joined another company in Italy, but that absolutely did not work out (You know, when you talk with someone online, and then they show up, and they are NOTHING like on the internet? Yeah, that was the experience. You just sit down there and wonder: “Should I leave?”, “Is this what I came here for?”, “What am I even doing with my life?”

So yes, those were my thoughts. Exactly those 3. On repeat over and over again… until I have decided that if things don’t change and someone doesn’t take control over those things - I’ll just quit.

And so… I did.

It’s been a bit over 3 months in Italy, and I was moving my entire life (currently 3 big suitcases, one carry-on suitcase and a backpack.) to another place. And as you may imagine, after the last couple of years - I have been lost and discouraged from… Anything, really. I went to my sister in Ireland and decided to find myself through other means.

I wanted to do exciting things again. Fly my FPV Drones, create travel content, work on my own terms and just enjoy a bit of the life I have been working so hard for. And yes, I felt as if I had dropped the ball, and things have been pretty rough in the last few years. I was living in a fight or flight mode for way too long, and this has taken its toll… big time.

And so I was lost in space and time. Unsure of anything… When I finally decided to take things into my own hands. And I decided that this is the time…

Am I scared? Sure, but I will do it scared. I have set up myself for some solo travelling to create content, get back to doing things that I like doing, and get inspired again. Seeing how things can develop and change within a short period of time was and is life-changing.

And as I am writing this post - I just tested my FPV Freestyle drone and I am happy to report that it works, and we are going flying!

I hope you will enjoy the journey that is coming due to all of those changes and that we will again enjoy some FPV and travel content that I loved doing so, so much.

So hey… More blogging, more interesting content and more happy times. Isn’t that great? ;)

Please enjoy, and buckle up… because we’ll go hard.

xoxo
