I’ve been living in a caravan for the past 2 years… I tell people I’m in my Gypsy era… a rolling stone, gathering no moss.
It’s been fun!
I haven’t had to clean a toilet or a shower for 2 years… no electricity bills, no yard maintenance, no serious responsibilities!
I fall asleep to the sound of the waves, I wake with the sun rise - life is very simple.
There have been weeks where I didn’t actually see another soul because the caravan park was deserted!
And I’d have to go out to a cafe just to speak to a real life person!
I’ve had time to rest, reset, recalibrate.
Dream, visualize, plan & prepare….
I’ve done a lot of Road tripping.
Staying with friends & trying out new hotels to break the 9 hour drive between north & south coasts!
But it’s also been challenging: not feeling grounded has taught me to find my own centre, not having family or friends around to help out through some mentally tough times has taught me to reach out for help in other ways, being alone all the time can also get boring - so I’ve learnt to find ways to amuse myself!
But this adventure is drawing to a close, as I put down more permanent roots in the Northern Rivers.
Those months of dreaming, visualizing, planning & preparing are paying off & my dream atelier is becoming a reality!
