#98 — Practise ‘no internet’ day

Recently I visited my hometown which is a sleepy little town located in the southern coast of Tamil Nadu. I was not able to connect to internet for three days. Initially, it was difficult to comprehend. Back here where I migrated to make a living, I am connected to high speed internet every second of a day.

Once I got back home from my hometown, I was thinking how it’d be if I practised the same, that is, No internet for a whole day. This day, I will strictly have it for myself. I can do whatever I want, except connect to internet or use any digital device. I will not pick up my smartphone or laptop unless there is an emergency. The frequency of no internet day can be per week or per month based on your comfort level.

In west, there are many attempts to do exactly this. They call it Internet Sabbath.
