Every time I travel on vacation, my laptop comes with me.
Early mornings, or while my wife takes a nap, I open it and move a few projects forward. It always felt like getting ahead.
This time I decided I wouldn't do that.
It was me, my bike and the road, from the Death Road to the Salar de Uyuni and across the Bolivian altiplano, with a lot of time to think about life and to enjoy being exactly where I was.
In a world where we're connected all the time, I think this kind of pause matters more than we give it credit for. Some of the best thinking I've done in a while happened with no screen in front of me.
