Thanks :) My thoughts exactly.

Yes, If I remember correctly you just book the days you'll be camping and then can move around and stay at any of the Yorke Campsites.

Thank you! Yes, I hope to get back into it. Fingers crossed I can figure out how to balance the workload while living and working on the road 🤞

Thanks :) I appreciate it. I haven't given up on Vanlife. Just trying to figure out how to keep the content creation going while I travel. Hopefully find a healthy balance this year.

Thanks for watching :) Yeah, this place has to be on the 'must see' Aussie travel list. One of my favourites.

Thank you!

Thanks! Hope it helps :)

Thank you!

Thank you so much! Happy New Year.

Thank you 🥰

Thanks for following. Funny how we can set off down the same path and experience it in a completely different way. Sounds like you had a great end to your lap though :)

Thanks so much for watching :)

I like your 'freedom'. Some people have to do the things they thought they wanted first to realise it's not what they wanted after all. Sounds like you've come to that realisation all on your own. I like what you said about shooting when and what you want and sometimes nothing at all - I hope I can get to that place one day. I'm sure I'll enjoy my travels (and photography) a whole lot more. Thanks for your comment :)

@@vanlifeshots I am definitely looking forward to retirement someday, when I will have more time just to roam around and not feel like I have to be anywhere else at a certain time. That’s one of the disadvantages of having a normal job/schedule like I have now, I admit. I know everyone has different goals and dreams. What feels fine to me may feel like torture to someone else. I’m fortunate to have a job at a company that’s easy to work for, so I have some freedom in that sense to. As long as I get my work down, all is well. They let me be myself and there’s no pressure. I’m very anxious for retirement though. I want to travel even more and of course make more photos, but I have a feeling my focus will be more on enjoying the experiences of seeing new places and people. Anyway, don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll find the balance that works for you. You’re already speaking about it out loud/in public, so you’re well on your way. Don’t let it bother you too much in the meantime. It’ll work out. 😊

Sorry. One more thing. Regarding living online or maybe living FOR the online community, this is one of the big reasons I left most of social media. I don't even post anything on Instagram. I have a website and that's where I upload all my photos now and whoever finds it, finds it. When I posted photos to other platforms, it felt like what you mentioned. I felt like I had to have SOMETHING to post, even if I didn't feel like it. Now that I've left almost every social media platform (I don't consider RUclips to be a traditional SM platform), I feel a lot more free and absolutely no pressure to post anything, even on my own site. I realize some people want to make photography and that lifestyle their way or life and their primary source of income, but if you ask me, it's much more difficult to do that today with all the competition. This is why I'm totally content to keep my regular job and accept that I have a limited amount of vacation time each year (though, about 6 or 7 seeks of vacation is not bad at all! - that's what I get). There's a nice feeling of security in having a steady job that pays well also. I don't mean to discourage anyone, BUT I would always recommend to people that they keep things in perspective and accept the risks if they truly want to go after a photography career as their own income. I think weddings and portrait photography would be the easiest to get into and earn money and maybe travel photography might be one of the more difficult ones to profit from. @@vanlifeshots

No posting to social media actually sounds very freeing. I guess everyone has their own priorities and focus with how they promote their creativity. We'll see where the next year takes me with that :)

Good luck in the future. @@vanlifeshots
