We have been traveling through Europe for 4 months now. The plan was to spend a month in each of the countries we selected. I am a big fan of VRBO/AirB&B’s rather than sterile hotel rooms. We are temporarily living in someone else’s vacation home but we treat it like it’s ours. Why are we here a month? It takes at least a week to feel acclimated to an area, the 2nd week we do lots of exploring but by the 3rd and 4th week we feel a part of the community. We get to know some of the people here, find our favorite…bakery, coffee & restaurants . We start to understand how people think here and we learn to understand why they live as they do.
I begin to bond with the home we are in. I always say; wherever I am traveling in the world is my home.
I have my favorite reading spot (with HoneyToo close by). When it’s almost time to leave it’s exciting to think about the next place we are going however I also feel a sadness in saying good bye.
