    • Bring at least two pair of shoes in case your main pair gets wet, go with the most confortable ones.
    • Take a look on the weather beforehand and bring appropriate clothes.
    • If possible, bring snacks to avoid expensive airport food.
    • Do you really need to bring that device? I normally just go with my phone and an extra electronic device for killing time (to avoid my phone battery to get drained), normally it's my 3ds because it also counts my steps and I like to keep the record.
    • Pack more socks and underwear that you think you need, the opposite goes with pants.
    • ALWAYS bring cash.
    • You can survive a cheap uncomfortable airplane seat, but you will regret a lot more staying in an uncomfortable cheap hotel.
    • Things you'll always need to be caring around: your phone, wallet, passport and deodorant.

    I installed Asesprite using the build.sh script on my Fedora distro, I gave it a quick try and it has everything I need, I might also try Pixelorama later when I have the time.

    I wanted to practice my stagnant drawing skills and something I always liked is pixel art, but I don't know any program for that (beside Paint and Photoshop) so I would like for recommendations here, the only big feature I need is multi layers management and that preferably runs in multiple platforms (You know, like Gimp and Inkscape).

    Anything that runs on Linux/Windows/Android is welcomed. I guess there should be open source apps for that, and since it's only for practice I would to waste money on paid apps.

    I gave Midnights a listen and I liked it, sounds similar to Carly Rae Jepsen's style and I'm all for that

    The World Ends With You Soundtrack

    Dark Side of the Moon is one of those albums I used to listen to way too much and now I got tired of, BUT is one of the best albums for those activities.

    I have tried this album once or twice, it's a good experience but kinda slow, if you're a bit tired it can put you to sleep right away.

    I'm looking for full albums, preferably slow paced and that don't sound too "dark" (so no stoner metal).

    I'm trying to focus on just one game, but I've been playing:

    • Okami HD on the switch: man, this game is beautiful and the movement feels so good, I was so stupid for not playing it on the PS2 when I had the chance.

    • Yakuza 0 on PC: Yakuza 7 was my first Yakuza game, so this is the first one I'm playing with beat em up combat, I would say I prefer the battle system of 7, because on here I'm more prone to spam the same attack in every fight and that makes it more repetitive. But I'm enjoying the story so I don't mind.

    • Rhythm Heaven on the DS: I'm getting into the hardest levels of the game, I realistically don't know if I'll beat this one, I'm very bad at rhythmic games, but it's so fun to play it. I'm hoping Nintendo releases a new entry for the Switch 2, this series needs more love from them.

    • and Animal Crossing: New Leaf on the 3ds: Very stupid me trying to 100% animal crossing, I've been playing this game since 2016 and I can finally see that I'm getting there, according to my spreadsheets, I have completed this much:

      Category Current Total Percentage
      Fishes 70 72 97%
      Bugs 68 72 94%
      Deep Sea Creatures 28 30 93%

    I don't live in the US, I live in a third world country, but I would say the only positive thing my country is known for is our coffee, so yeah it's really good.

    I don't know if the quality of affects it overall, but everything tastes better with a good coffee imo.

    Edit: oh also about the friend who recommend me doing that, her family is a (small) coffee producer, so they grow, toast and grind their own coffee. Now imagine eating cold cheap pizza with a coffee your family produced from the ground up.

    Could be either black coffe or with milk, I don't know what Folgers is, regular pepperoni pizza is the works great.

    A friend of mine told me she normally eats her left overs in the morning with coffee, so I tried it and try to dip it and it tastes great. (I don't know if she also dips them, she came to that combination out of pure laziness).
