The Unexpected Gypsy | Artist & Vanlife, Work Life Balance, working on the road, seasides, cliffs & fairy cottages, & Etsy @theunexpectedgypsy | Uploaded October 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
So, I did an experiment and tried working whilst on the road on a week's adventures in our van. I actually edited last week's YouTube video on this trip! The van life and digital nomad thing worked really well for me! We absolutely loved our trip to the coast and visited lots of seaside towns and spied so many beautiful little fairy cottages too. So cute and I think I found the perfect cottage to stay in when it's too cold for our van! Coming away for the first holiday in two years really helped us unwind and create that elusive work-life balance I am constantly striving for. Once I got home again you will see I found it really hard to get back into the flow of working but I showed up and did achieve a few things like; re opening my Etsy Shop and also my Patreon painting process video for this week. Thanks to James who edited that one for us! So all-in-all, I did pretty well really! I hope you enjoy coming with us on our little trip and hope you have a most wonderful weekend filled with joy and magic! Softest hugs, Wendy. Xxx
