#14 For the last 3 weeks, we have been on the road between houses. We have been living in our beautiful black and gold horse float… and while that was a hot topic in the caravan parks (that it was a horse float and a colour other than white), it definitely wasn’t the same as living in a caravan!!
It’s been a very memorable experience!
When reflecting on the last 3 weeks and the whole covid experience (which is why we were living in our float in the first place - we were unable to go across the border into Qld as the state was shut down!).
It’s interesting to note the different experiences people have had from different points of view…
Eg. Parents saying that they were unable to see their friends, they were unable to socialise and their kids were home and bored 24/7 because of home schooling
Vs.
The kids saying it was so awesome - we didn’t have to go to school, we got to spend soooo much more time with our parents, playing games and doing other things together!
We went into the last 3 weeks with the intention that this is going to be an opportunity to spend time with the kids, it’s an adventure.
Rather than focusing on what we didn’t have, the small space, the living conditions, we are stuck in a horse float etc.
The biggest learning is to go into something with the right intention and decide how you are going to feel about it!
The second learning was getting back to nature - the horse float was fine as long as we could get out of the cramped conditions and walk along the beach. There is something about walking barefoot on the beach to recharge your body.
Make sure you check out this episode to learn what else we gained from our experience, and how you can apply it to your journey through life.
