RE: Reise-Blog #16: Erfolgreicher Bouldertag in Xátiva und ein unerwartet schöner Platz

in #travel6 years ago

Nice post @vestlife! I’ve done a fair amount of rock climbing in my earlier years, so brought back fond memories.

Also have done some amateur birdwatching, so nice memory there as well. Great sunset pictures. Looks like you found a very peaceful place to forget ones cares in this world for just a bit.

Dropping by to support your post, after @pundito featured it in our weekly @pifc community contest. And wishing you all the best for a …

💥 Happy New Year!! 💥

Thanks a lot for checking out and upvoting our travel blog!
New pictures and videos of bouldering are coming soon, so stay tuned ;)

I just scrolled through your profile and read your "Road to Recovery" post.
I'm excited to read more about your month of travel and future plans.

Greetings & and likewise a happy new year,
Constantin

Thank you @vestlife ...

"I'm excited to read more about your month of travel and future plans."

... for this, as I am definitely excited to get "out on the road" and relive some old memories, as well as creating some new ones. 😊

I just hope I can keep up with the posting "in here," as I take my time to "do it right" as much as I can and working off of just my laptop screen is less than ideal. BUT ... I am determined to do that, as part of a "journal" of sorts, at this stage of my life.

I know what your talking about, right before christmas we were 1 month behind schedule with our travel blog. Luckily we had a lot of time around holiday so we could catch up.
Also working only on the laptop in van with no space to sit properly is sometimes annoying. At least I can say, don't let the writing interfere with your ejoyment ;)

Will you travel in a camper van or by car and spend the night with friends/family?
In either case I wish you a lot of fun and a lot of new valuable experience!

Unfortunate the disruption in our engagement here @vestlife, but my full-time job and family responsibilities come first, including needing to leave for work yesterday (and again this morning, in a little bit …). Unavoidable, at least for now.

”Also working only on the laptop in van with no space to sit properly is sometimes annoying. At least I can say, don't let the writing interfere with your ejoyment ;)”

Yes, agreed. I am a sort of “all in” or “all out” type, so getting this right will not be easy for me. I definitely focus on the quality of my posts vs. quantity. Perhaps to a fault. I definitely need to spend the time reflecting on the next chapter of my life vs. just writing in Steem, as this trip is intended to be far more than just a vacation.

Going to be making the trip in my trusty old 4 X 4, 2003 Ford Ranger. Love that little truck … 😉 The overall schedule will be ~ 2 weeks alone, to gather my thoughts, once I get away from my job. Then, ~ 2 weeks with my beloved siblings up in Oregon and Washington. Family knows us best right? Really looking forward to that time with them. Then, back home to my “real life” and whatever the “next chapter” holds for me … 😉

Enjoying the engagement with you! 😊

I'm not super fast in replying either, so never mind! :)

Could not imagine why this should be a fault. If one spends more time on a post, I think the benefit is much greater because the thougts get more organized, which results in a higher insight for oneself and a post that is more interesting to read!

Sounds like a perfect timeline! If you allow me to give you an advice, don't plan out every day in advance of you journey. Having the freedom to react to unexpected opportunities gives you the chance to make unforgettable experiences.
And at least for me, to drift where ever I get attracted to allows my mind to get more calm and clear.

Likewise! :)

Very good @vestlife ...

... sounds like good advice to me! 👍

Being an engineer, I've mapped out a tentative schedule in a spreadsheet, as I definitely have certain places I must be at a certain time, such as being with my siblings in Sun River, Oregon. Aside from that, though, I think I've built in a reasonable amount of flexibility ...

Love the idea of just taking off down a seldom traveled road in my trusty little 4 X 4 Ford Ranger.

7 more days of working. 3 days to prepare to leave. Then, "out on the road" ... The only real drawback is the time of year I am taking this trip. In the winter ...

We'll soon find out how smart that is ...

perfect!

7 more days of working. 3 days to prepare to leave.

Uhh, so the countdown is running now ;)
