The "Time Traveler" badge

We're going back in time again, but this time for a different purpose. Let's show the passage of time in two pictures! Share some shots from your life in the "then and now" perspective, showing yourself, your environment, your pets, kids, or anything else! 🕘

Time range is flexible. It can be a year, 10, 20, or even 30 years between two photos. It's up to you!

And don't forget, every challenge participant receives the unique "Time Traveler" badge and 100 bonus points! Let's see how time can impact and change things around us and ourselves included! ⏳‌

Time travelling. What a wonderful challenge! Since it's a holiday here in Lisbon, Portugal, I had some time to check my photos.

I was bon in Canada. As a little kid, I didn't know I would be traveling so much 😉

Some 20 years ago, I was much into geocaching... It's (or was for me) the world's most entertaining treasure hunt where you use satellites to plant/find tupperwares in the woods 😂😂🤣 This is from one of the most memorable, a geocache placed more than 20 years ago, https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC4B0D_the-bear-treasure, revisiting it in 2004:

Still loving adventurous places. Recently, this year, at one of my dream locations:

I don't have old enough photos of me on the phone to make it a time traveling experience. I do however have a 10 week old Samwise Greybeard, a.k.a Sammy, compared to how he looks now at 6 years old.

He's an Australian Labradoodle and his favorite things to do are sleeping, eating, going outside and chasing balls.

No real old photos of myself. But you can see the 7 years (and 7kgs 🤣) on Mr. Furglton and Arch:

We had named them Fedora and Arch, but Fedora turned out to be a boy 🙂

Two things make me notice the passage of time 🕒 more than others:

my baby sister (who's not a baby anymore)

and my cat Axel (who's not a little bean we brought home five years ago either)

It's amazing to see how far I've come in my career since joining Compuware as a software engineer in 2010. I've worked hard and achieved so much, now holding the impressive title of product manager and building the content for our Perform confs!

Nice travel throughout the years, Antonio! Now, then, and in-between 😃

Patrick, you're not alone 😂 I used to have a rabbit that had a female name, but it also turned out to be a boy 🤣 Now my son has a small turtle and we'll learn its actual gender in 8-10 years 🤣 My son claims the turtle is a boy and calls him as such 😃 🐢

🤣I actually had the same issue there as well!

My 🐢 is 10 now, so I know it's a boy. But the name just stuck with "Kröt" (Turtle = Schildkröte in German) because I didn't want to pick a name while not knowing the gender 😄

Hi,

Many things are changing in my life.... career, cars, bikes, girls 🤣, etc. However, my dog friend has been with me for 14 years now and is not going anywhere.

PS: Well okay now there are two of them 😁
