A beginner mistake I am weirdly glad I made before coffee

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 9 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

The detail that surprised me was how much the kitchen changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

This sounds sensible, though I would need to test it myself. My friend tried it in Seoul and had the opposite result. This makes me want to look at a map for an hour.

Wonderful detail. It makes the whole thing feel real. I keep a note about maps for exactly this reason.
