Day #7 - I already missed a day
March 13, 2024•305 words
It took me a week. A week and I have missed my first day in the 100 day challenge. To say I was disappointed when I realised this morning would be a complete understatement, however I have two options from here - give up or keep charging forward. The writing of this post suggests the latter.
We are feeling somewhat burnt out at the moment. 2 and a half months of frequent travelling has us feeling like we need a little reset. We've been on the move on average 2-3 times a week, sometimes more - and this is starting to take its toll a little bit on everyone.
We like to travel slow. Take it easy, get to see more of places. And it makes working more difficult when we are constantly having to pack up the van, hitch up, and drive an hour or 2, then set up and do it all over again. To be honest, we didn't expect to get this far into South Australia as we have. We expected to stay around the Yorke Peninsula before heading back to Melbourne, and this would of had us travelling at a much slower pace. But our decision to hit the Eyre Peninsula while the weather looked good has meant we are travelling much more.
We will be heading back towards Adelaide after this weekend, and will then be heading to Melbourne to see family and get our new (replacement) caravan. 3 weeks in the one spot will be just what the doctor ordered before, I think, we start cruising up the east coast.
But who knows. We change our mind all the time. Which is one of the beautiful things about this lifestyle.
We get to do what feels right at the time and move with it.
See you tomorrow.
