der Kampf ist echt

I made some great memories yesterday as captured in the polaroids below. I mean, travelling as an artist is super exotic and enriching and amazing, no? Except that you spend your day organising your bags and - in Switzerland - attempting to eat for less than 40 CHF per day (about $50/£38). The day was mostly bent on surviving the triple prong plug system that - as it turns out - ONLY Switzerland uses. There wasn't a moment when I had both wifi and power access. The struggle is real, kids, der Kampf ist echt. The implications of this are long lasting.

Me, prepared with a US to EU adaptor.

Problem 1: incompatible powers.

Problem 2: the hexagonal frame didn't match with my rectangular EU adaptor.

Violence and power go hand in hand.

But stabbing the plugs in like a knife didn't even help.

I did, however, fall asleep during a beautifully lyrical guitar recital and also improvised like my life depended on it because - goddammmmmit - something had better work!
