It's a different life for sure! Just a matter of getting into action and doing what you gotta do at that moment... I agree that decompressing can be the hardest, and that's when being in nature is vital.
Hiking is awesome, and I'm happy that you have a break coming, even if it's still work.
grow flowers.
and are you into growing/using herbs?
Work for me is taking photos and figuring out how to write something about them so it's nowhere near as onerous as it sounds.
I do a little bit with herbs, my partner does most of the growing/using herbs though. Going to be growing some stuff this year to make homemade fabric dyes but I'm not entirely sure what all else. Do you?
That's real fun, just dangerous locations.
I've never thought about making my fabric dyes. That's a brilliant idea. I do like growing herbs and do so even in limited spaces like when we were living on the narrowboat. However, we're temporarily staying with a friend, and I miss gardening.
My fav herbs to grow are rosemary, basil, oregano, and parsley. I always struggle with growing healthy coriander. I'm gonna look up the common herbs and colour for clothes dye😊
