Absolutely beautiful post, thank you. On so many levels. Will warm the hearts of gypsy souls and inform the curious! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I loved all of it, especially your tips, like - wait to put the sexy dress on later; ask for their destination first; adjust attire accordingly. And so many more.

And: got to put in the prep, and the slog. Grit builds instinct. Like vagabond traveling.

Truckers aka lorry drivers sound like the real solid lot. Love the coordinated strategem.

I relate, too, after 5 years of solo wandering abroad, to knowing when one is done. When one loses interest, is tired, or more easily irritated.

My 14-year old badass spunky self salutes your 14-year old badass spunky self. Thanks again, Natasha!
