This was a good post, Ryan. Nicely formatted, took me through the journey. Used my senses and was relatable.

So much so that I’m consciously afraid of the next part of our journey - stopping full time travel.

I like the relaxed vs excited paradigm. That is a good model which will be in my head for a long time. It’s now time to figure out how I’m going to keep the excitement in my life as it relates to location.

Thanks for the mental preparation.

I bet you and your family will do great! Anyone who can do what you've just done will certainly stay adventurous in one way or another πŸ˜€

This was really interesting, thank you for writing about it. You’ve given me relaxed/excited food for thought. Plus I love the idea of finding someone you’re excited to keep hanging out with. Hope Baguette feels better soon.

Thanks so much for reading!

Yeah, as an introvert, meeting Katie was notable: she was the first person where I never wanted a break.

Usually, being alone is necessary for recharging. But I can recharge *while hanging out with her*, which felt new.

Thanks for your comment, and yeah Baguette is feeling much better. πŸ˜€

Happy to hear Baguette is doing well!

I love how cats live their life, there is so much we can learn from them.

I also have been thinking recently about this contradiction of wanting/needing certainty but also excitement, so thanks for writing about it! It was a great read, as always.
