The point of being, part 1

Well, my dears. Here’s my first video of the ‘Point of Being’ series, which will eventually bring me to the South of France….or back to Siberia.

I was recording those videos in between my online lessons, trying to avoid train noises, dogs barking, my flatmates crashing down the stairs, switching on our washing machine or dishwasher, phone calls and other trivia.

I’d routinely notice that I’d forgotten to switch on my microphone or would get a message that my camera is low on storage, get an urgent text from one of the students or a phone call from my dear mother… It’s been an interesting time.

It did get in a way of my intellectualising, but I think I managed to keep on a track somehow.

You’ll be the judge.
