Finally some action!

Though today has been ‘another day in paradise’, we finally have made some exciting news for the coming days! We’ve booked a day trip for tomorrow, going to the Gili island, snorkeling, cycling, visiting the largest Buddha statue and a few other things! We’re very excited, but a tad nervous about having a long day […]

Forgiveness

Last night I attended a workshop on forgiveness, both on forgiving others and forgiving oneself. And something that the holder of the circle said really stuck with me, and though I don’t remember it word by word, it went something like this. “By forgiving someone else, it doesn’t mean that we are accepting the action […]

Change of Room

As we planned our accommodation a bit last minute, well, more a week in advance. We have ended up having to change room every 6-7 days. Which is ok. We really like the resort we’re currently at, so we’re switching between a few of their locations. Only drawback with our new room is that it’s […]

Anniversary

Yesterday marks our 5 years anniversary as a couple! Half a decade! And just look now much we’ve done, how much we’ve traveled, which is one of our big passions we share. What did we do to celebrate this milestone? We spent some 7 hours (including breaks) in our van, driving a bit over 500 […]

Vanlife

We’re temporary back to vanlife again. After 8 nights of having the comforts of separate rooms for sleeping, eating and… hygienic things, we’re back to our box on wheels. Everything’s so different. I really thought last week was the last time we’d sleep and live in the van, but with no luck of selling it […]

Roadside Assistance

Today, our campervan sales took an interesting turn. This is mostly reconstructed by what Petri has told me. We took the campervan to Ellerslie Car Fair, one of Auckland’s biggest car fairs. We set it up, all was well. I was going for an appointment, and a friend of ours joined to keep Petri company. […]
