It was very hard to not say "Gondor calls for aid!" when we were flying over the mountains before landing in Queenstown. Hello, New Zealand. I like how you look already.

Bye, Sydney! It's been much fun. Off to New Zealand now.

"Have you heard the name Kata Tjuta?" I have, but I won't admit it was in one episode of an American action TV show in the late 90s.

Some sights on the way to Uluru. No, that mountain is not Uluru.

Melbourne as a city seems cool. Tourist's perspective though.

Melbourne's Botanical Garden is Very Cool.

Re: Vegemite, a very thin layer on a buttered toast is pretty good. Salty, but entirely edible. There you go. Am I an honorary Australian?

Hi, Singapore! I didn't know we'd meet so soon (I knew this flight was going through here, but I didn't know I'd have to actually step off the plane.) (I'll have 3 hours here on my way back)

Australia, be kind to me... (I'm at the gate for departure. I'm actually getting nervous, which wasn't happening when I was happily booking flights and hotels months ago.)

Slowly going towards the scariest part of my trip... 19 hours on a plane. I'm not that worried about the spiders at my destination ;)

The check-in for my first flight towards Australia is done. Then I have a two-day layover. :) Then I fly to actual Australia. And I see in the airline's app that I can make myself a Ryan Gosling movie marathon on the way. I won't, but I can :)

Key R. @keyrousse.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
I'll be sitting on a plane to Australia in exactly a week. I'll be insufferable for the next 5 weeks after I land. Fair warning. (okay, I can promise a photo from time to time.)

Key R. @keyrousse.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
In exactly two weeks I'll start haunting in Melbourne. Can't. Frickin'. WAIT!!! (although I'm sure I'll regret that 5 hours into the flight there.)

Key R. @keyrousse.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
Two weeks to go. Now I'm starting to wonder if I'll be able to watch movies on the plane. And if yes, what will be there to watch.

Full respect for CDPR's "you paid for the game once already and it's enough" approach. I guess I'll have to return to TW3 this autumn :) (I'll be in Australia when the remaster drops, so if my PC doesn't die, I'll play again...)
020
Key R. @keyrousse.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
So you're saying I should play TW3 from the start again? If my PC doesn't die... (and it seems like it wants to)

Sharpen your silver and steel. Geralt of Rivia is back on the Path in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Songs of the Past. Called by an old friend to the brand new region of Letten, discover a wealth of new quests, characters, and secrets to uncover. But below the surface lurks something sinister…

I'm looking at weather forecasts for different places in NZ I plan to visit and... let's just hope that in a month my luck for weather during trips will start working :) Especially for days with hiking and sightseeing... Yes, I know. Spring in the mountains. I will deal with it.

That feeling when you worry for two days about not getting your visitor visa to Australia yet, and then you recheck your emails and see you were granted it automatically after applying.

The thing about "this pasta snack from an airfryer is healthier than potato crisps!" is that you have to make the pasta snack yourself. You have to cook the pasta, then air fry it (you can add grated cheese, paprika etc.). Apparently I'm too lazy for that, so I don't eat that nor the potato crisps.

Apparently, now I have a specialty when it comes to baking in my family. Cheesecakes. And you know what? It's fine. It's good. For someone who's learnt to properly bake and cook only after moving out of family home at 25, it's a good specialty to have. I just follow the recipes :)

Not being able to sleep, thus having a very long day has a strong advantage of me having time and actual energy to finish planning my NZ trip. Hotels are booked, now a car and maybe some sightseeing trips. And I'll be practically done. Less that 6 weeks to go.

One of the biggest disappointments re: fanfiction is when you read an amazing work, just the right themes, just the style you absolutely adore and wish you could write like that, and then you find out the author wrote only one other fic and you've read it already as well.

A vast mountain range stretches into the distance beneath a bright blue sky filled with large white clouds. A winding river is visible down below.

I just watched "The Gray Man". Yes, because of Ryan Gosling (and the RGCU that's now popular among fanfiction fans. The idea of three of his recent characters being brothers is fun, there are some good fics :) ). It was... honestly? Unremarkable. Not awful, not good. Watch (or not) and forget.

Key R. @keyrousse.bsky.social · 26/07/2026
Ryan Gosling in MCU, huh? Good for him :) Too bad my interest in that universe evaporated after "Avengers: Endgame" and now I have absolutely no idea what's going on (and no intention to catch up). :)

Thank you, YT, for suggesting me aaaaall the vids about Australia and New Zealand I'm actually interested in. Have you listened to me mutter on my walk, about finally finishing the trip plan? About what to see in Melbourne, in Sydney besides the Opera, and that I need to finish my trip plan for NZ?

Sunday evening, I think "I'll go shower and to bed earlier today, read a book..." Then for some reason I open AO3, use some filters and find 12 chapters, 34k words of a fic to read. I guess no early bed tonight...

Recently I've been enjoying the growing assortment of non-alcoholic beers. One time I bought one with a lot of ZEROs! No alcohol, no sugar... As it was with stevia as a sweetener, there was also zero joy in drinking it. (I used to use stevia, but switched to xylitol)

Using my unplanned week off to try and plan the route for my New Zealand trip. Milford Sound is away from anywhere else I want to go. But I can't go to NZ and not go to Milford Sound or any other fiords out there. Yes I know Norway is closer. ;)

Single-digit number of weeks to my Australia/New Zealand trip. I really should finish the formalities... (like driving licence for NZ... Actually renting the car... Insurance...)

The most annoying thing about my little adventure today will definitely be trying not to soak the bandage. For the next 10 frickin' days. I have medical gloves, I'm considering securing them with a hairband or sth when I shower.

I cut the skin on my right hand. Sitting in the ER now waiting for triage. The wait for some stitches begins.

I've been listening to Daniel Pemberton's soundtracks a lot lately and I have to say that I frickin' love what he does. TMFU music was absolutely charming. "King Arthur: Legend of the sword" was loud and raw. PHM music makes you smile, especially by the end. Total respect.

Today is the Father's Day, and a birthday of an absolute goat and icon of fantasy literature, Andrzej Sapkowski. Thank you master for the Witcher books, compelling characters and fascinating dialogs. You are always an inspiration 🥰
