Summary of 2023

Happy New Year everyone!

It's 2024 already, and it's time to check with my annual resolutions.

Last year, I posted a video about my 2023 goals, but this year, I decided just to make a post.

2023 was quite an exciting year. I didn’t meet many of my annual resolutions, but many great things happened.

The first and most significant thing was buying a house in the Netherlands 🏡

This took much energy in the spring and summer, but we did it successfully and moved to our new home in July.

That’s a significant life change after renting my whole life, and I am super happy we went through with it.

In addition, I had a few goals in terms of savings and investing. I exceeded the plans, saved much cash, and invested some money 💰

This achievement will allow me to make an exciting shift in my work life next year.

My health goals of weight weren’t met at all, but I started making some positive changes in my relationship with sports, food, and alcohol.

I stabilized my running/biking routines and am planning to push even more this year, so it’s a matter of time before the changes come.

Most of the travel was in Europe, primarily on trains. I also traveled around the Netherlands, searching for a city to buy a house.

Highlights:

  • Italian Alps snowboarding 🇮🇹
  • Trip to Lille 🇫🇷
  • Trip to amazing Hamburg 🇩🇪
  • Sziget festival + camping in Budapest 🇭🇺
  • Bike camping in Hoge Veluwe 🇳🇱

The side project goals weren’t that successful.

First, YouTube. I only managed to publish 20 videos on YouTube (instead of the planned 40), but at least I got monetized on my main channel this year.

I spent some time working on Taco Digest at the beginning of the year, and it increased MRR a bit. But it started cooling down closer to the end of the year since I didn’t work on it later.

I didn’t launch any other products and focused on making videos instead 🎥

One of the most significant decisions I made last year will happen in March, and I will post more about this later.

I’ll reflect on my goals in the first 3 months of 2024. Some were already determined, and some I still have to plan. 🚀

From the soon-to-happen cool things.

For the first time since moving to the Netherlands, I am going on a nomading trip. I go to Valencia 🇪🇸 in February and stay there for a month.

I’ll post videos and talk about living in the city I heard so much about.

Since October last year, I have been taking a little hiatus from all social media to reflect on my life, but I'll slowly return this year.

I hope you had a great year and will have an even better one in 2024! 🎉

What are your goals for 2024?
