Day 1
Today I need to Skype my girlfriend and discuss her daughter, who wants to travel and try out a job. That's a worry for me and our future plans. I can't really tell her to not do that.

I'll also do some shopping, my nose has been blocked for 10 days now after traveling back to a much cooler climate. I'm going to try a sinus rinse. That's new for me.

I'm living in the shed, it has electricity which is great. However it's a mess. Today I start my tidying/cleaning every day challenge.

Maybe you need to live in a different climate than you do now, and you need to plan to live with your internet girlfriend and her kid(s) somewhere that compromises with all of your feelings.

We lived together for 18 months in a location near the equator and it was at sea level. Never again (maybe). I just was too hot and exhausted after going for a walk.

When we live together again I may request a higher altitude which is a lot cooler. Or I may just never go for walks. Towns up in the mountains often lack facilities and are more expensive for water and food.

The three of us haven't really communicated ideally. Which is why I am back in my home country.

That's what I'm trying to tell you, you're in a miserable climate for your genetic disposition. I am, too, but I deal with it. However, you got two females to consider, so prioritize moving somewhere that suits them once you can get a visa for your girlfriend's daughter.

Day 2
I will be living in my car soon. I'm not looking forward to it. At all. I did it when I was studying at university. My father kindly offered to pay for about 10 weeks of non-car living over winter. Well, he is no longer with us. So that's not happening.

I'm not looking forward to the frosts. Fortunately it's nearly spring but frosts happen way into September. The frosts are the worst part of living in your car. It's really hard to sleep, even with multiple layers of clothes.

Second worst part of living in your car is the drop in mood when it starts getting dark. I'm kind of used to that. It's only temporary. Hopefully not longer than a year.

I've decided to pay for accommodation when I arrive at my destination city. Just until I get to my storage unit and find all my cold weather clothes. Which should take 2-3 days. That unit is completely full of my stuff. Most of which will be sold, it's a financial drain having a storage unit.

All this does seem extreme for those who have never lived in their vehicle before. But I've lived over 1,000 nights in my car, mostly at university but also after university.

I just checked the number of frosts in the city I grew up in. In the last month there were... zero frosts. I'm so envious. The city I plan on living in has had about 14 frosts in the past 6 weeks. I could just go to the other city but it's smaller and I need a job, I think bigger cities have more opportunities to get a job. Any job. Even a crappy job. I guess I could do both cities but my storage unit needs to be dealt with.
