In her latest blog, Carrie talks about her determination to have time for reflection, rejuvenation, connection, and rest on her vanlife journey. She compares her “regular life” to her “vanlife” and shares how easy it was to fall into a trap of ensuring you have a jam-pack schedule to increase productivity – giving all of her energy to work, activities, events, and ultimately, the fear of missing out. For her vanlife, one thing she promised to do was to find new rhythms, listen to her body, allow time for rest, and understand the importance of making time for reflection.
“One idea we had, to help us move in this new direction, was to let the year be a bit of a "wander". Let's wander together, shall we? It can be a bit unsettling at first to leave open spots in a schedule or itinerary...but let me reassure you...it's in pause where one can start to find calm, where clarity begins to form and where rest finds its roots.” – Carrie
