The Freedom Diaries: Week 4 – Hull Kraken & Filling the Well

On Thursday, myself and CP went to seek out the Hull Kraken. It was something we’d put on our list when we had our planning date & as she’s now on holiday for a fortnight, we decided to seize the day and do it.

For anyone who’s not familiar with Hull and has no idea what the Kraken is, the sea monster was unleashed during some refurbishment work on the Hull Maritime Museum, leaving a trail of tentacles around the city.

A comic containing the Kraken’s back-story has also been produced, along with a map to help you follow the trail. Living statues, theatre performances and live music were also en-route through the city.

So this week has seen me considering what it really means to live a prosperous life and actually beginning to take actions towards my vision on a daily basis.

The Freedom Diaries: Week 1 – When the universe has other plans

by mortgagefreebythesea on category , ,

So now I’ve quit my job, I thought I’d document my journey as I take the steps to create my new life. And what better title to give this series of blog-logs than The Freedom Diaries.

My plan is to publish a new diary each week with the discoveries I’ve made, steps I’ve taken and my current thoughts. It will be a way to track my progress while I explore this new way of being in the world.

When I left work last week, my plan was to have a restful week and allow myself some space and time to reflect. It seems the universe had other plans…
