Matilda on Tour - Three Weeks on the Road — Settling into Nomadic Life 🚐

Three weeks in, and the days have found a nice rhythm. Touch wood, no dramas this week. We’ve reached the Adriatic and are settling into the easy pace of life on the road 🌊

We’re getting better at planning our routes, and the shopping is sorted — three days’ food is more than enough and usually lasts closer to five. The little jobs that felt new at the start are becoming second nature.

I’ve always believed in stepping out of my comfort zone and really noticing what’s around me. Over the winter I started slowing down on my walks, taking more in — and that mindset is shaping this trip too.

Even with photos, I’ve noticed a shift. Fewer shots, but better ones — waiting for the moment rather than rushing it.

Now we’ve reached the Balkans, it feels like a turning point. Time to enjoy the days, find a balance of walking, cycling, sightseeing, and simply loving life on the road.

Next up is Croatia 🇭🇷 as we head towards Poreč — somewhere we visited around 40 years ago. I’m sure a lot has changed, but it will be interesting to see what still feels familiar.

Thank you for following our journey so far. If you’d like to keep up with future posts, you can subscribe for updates — it really helps me know who’s out there reading along.
