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?
