I am currently reading Hunter S Thompson's book on the Hell's Angels and it coincidentally has a lot in common with Manufacturing Consent. It's about how the US media made the Hell's Angels from an obscure, dying motorcycle gang into the monstrosity it became known of by using sentationalist news stories. It's a pretty interesting book.

Also planning to quit my job in a few months, sell my possession and travel for a year after I finished converting my van into a living space. It may be the stupidest thing I have done but I want to try it at least.

Have a nice week everyone.

Is your partner coming with you? Not my business, just wondering.

Oh yeah she is. We'll do it together. We plan to combine traveling with WWOOFing to learn more about organic farming and stuff.

Basically organic farmers around the world are offering lodging and food in exchange for people helping out on their farm. It's a way for people to get shelter and food for 'free' while learning about farming, nature and stuff and for the farmers to get shit done on their farm. Usually small projects.

That's pretty cool, I hope it works out well for you both.

Me and my girlfriend were Workaway hosts for years, so good luck for both of you in advance!
