Hi Herbert Chirwa

The challenge is asking you to return a datetime object with the timedelta added to it.

import datetime

def far_away(timedelta):
    return timedelta+datetime.datetime.now()

Hi Andreas , thanx for the quick response. Can you elaborate a bit what the challenge needed and were I felt short

The challenge asked you to return a datetime object which included the timedelta passed in to the function. Where you fell short was you were returning the current datetime object rather than adding the timedelta to the current datetime object.
