Home-bods for a change
17 January 13
It’s nice to be in a house. While our bus is in the workshop, we’ve been offered a room in a partially vacant student share-house (university hasn’t started yet).

It may not seem like it now, but I’m a natural home-bod. When living in a house, I was happy to stay at home most of the time, and I considered outings to be an inconvenience to my placid life. I think the girls could easily turn into home-bods too, and that’s why our current mode of living and learning works well — we’re out experiencing life instead of just reading about it or watching it go by on a screen.
However, for a change, we all enjoy a day at home. As we’re in a different environment, we explore the back yard, make use of the facilities and take advantage of our time with the things that we can’t replicate in our housebus.





It’s not our home, however, and we’re missing our constant access to food, clothes, toys and familiar spaces. The girls are sometimes creative in finding ways to replicate their usual way of life.

Brioni melts my heart finding that little spot. My children don’t like change and I find them snuggling in small spaces when we are in motels. Though my kids are distressed and usually begging to go home.

I am naturally a home body too – but ironically, love to travel! We don’t get to travel nearly as often as you but we enjoy (almost) every moment of it when we do! It just makes each experience (being on the road and being at home again) all the more precious!
