Weekend engagement topics: Week 183/ Weekend without mobile phone

Greetings from Caracas, Venezuela, friends. One more time @galenkp gave us interesting topics to write about. Thank you very much. I really appreciate it. I don't always have good ideas for weekend writing on our platform. Well, I will write about this topic:

When I was a child we did not have computers or mobile phone at home. I’m talking about the 1970s. When I was a young girl in the 1980s, we didn't have computers or cell phones at home yet. First mobile phone I saw, in the 1990s, was big and heavy. However, today we cannot imagine our world without computers and mobiles phones. Today we live in a completely computerized and digitalized world.

So, I haven't had a whole weekend without a cell phone for a long time. But I will imagine what could happen if this were to occur. Some years ago my cell phone was stolen and I was without a phone for a few days. It was a bad situation. There are too many things I do with my mobile phone, calling people but also sending and receiving text messages, looking for information, taking photos, design content for social networks, sending money from my bank account.

Yes, I could go one weekend without my mobile phone. Just one weekend. Although, like millions of people around the world, I usually don't part with it for very long, except when I'm sleeping, taking a bath, watching a movie at the cinema, that is, when I find myself in situations where I can't use it. What would I do those two days without mobile phone? Enjoying live, enjoying nature.

Well, I love nature, I have written about it many times since I have been writing for Hive. Being in contact with nature is very good for mental and physical health. My favorite one is very close to home, I can get there in ten or fifteen minutes walking. If I were on a weekend without my cell phone I would visit East Park. You can see there a nice landscape but also animals (birds, tigers, monkeys, crocodiles).

I show you some photos I took last weekend. Obviously I wasn't without my cell phone, I took the pictures with my cell phone camera, but you can imagine that I didn't have a phone and I was just enjoying lanscape and the animals in the East park. Maybe it would be good to do the experiment on a weekend and really not use the phone, Monday through Friday is very difficult because I need it for work.

Well, I hope you enjoyed my imaginary weekend without a cell phone, enjoying nature. In the other hand, that's absolutely right. When I enjoy nature I'm not seeing my cell phone.
