Something I loved My travels! I had the best time - and while predominately alone for it (I did spend 4 days with a friend in the 2 weeks), it was such a luxury to travel at my own pace (which is more intense than my family can deal with) and cramming so much sight seeing in - I was still roaming around sites at 10pm some nights - there was not a wasted minute!
Seeing Alle Farben at Parookaville, neither of which disappointed. He was so great with a choir, brass section and violinist at times, as well as live singers. It was such a joyous set and my heart was full!
Something that sustained me My travels! I saw so much beautiful art and interesting history and culture. I was filling my mind every day with things to think about and learn. It was so invigorating!
Something I'm carrying forward from this month to next I read three books in the two weeks I was away. I really hope to keep that pace up, making time to physically read. There's a real joy in that, plus relaxation of getting lost in another world.
Something I'm making space for I think I say this every month but exercise. While I was away I was walking around so much, lugging heavy bags and really just getting a work out daily. I need to keep this up as I think I felt better for it....
Nice to meet someone who understands. When ever I go without Ingo or friends I get asked if we fight. Noooo. I just want some time for my own pace. Happy T-Day.
I think it's hard when you are physically fast and energetic and you have to build in breaks and less walking for others. When we travel as a fam, I allow 'hotel time' for the kids - sleep in etc while I get up early and go and see something before check out...husband will often duck out for a massage...so every third day, before we move on, or evening before dinner, I squeeze something in at my pace...ha!
Like you, I prefer to travel alone. I set my own pace and see exactly what interests me. Your trip sounds like one of a lifetime. Thanks for taking us with you and also sharing your welcome drink in Paris. Happy T Tuesday, Lydia.
I don't think I could travel alone. But I can see the advantages. Are those cars really parked on that rubble site? Have a great week. Happy travels. And thnkyou for visiting my blog this week.

ReplyDeleteThey're fossils - and it's in the square outside the Opera House so there is eerie Opera music echoing around....it was spectacular...
DeleteI just realised you can't see the fossils. The brown dirt looking things are fossils...
DeleteWow! What wondrous places to visit. Happy Belated T Stands for Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteLoved everything you enjoyed and loved the beach and I drank your champagne. Delicious.
