By the time you read this post, I would probably be half way to Ljubljana, Slovenia. Today is the day I embark on a great adventure – my relocation to Spain trip! π
Let me back up a bit and give you the whole story
It has to do a little with freelance, a little with travel, a little with freedomβ¦
If you have read my About me page, you know I am born and raised in a small Eastern European country and have lived here and there during my 20s. On the verge of my 30th birthday, we decided it’s high time to move again and today is the day we leave. 3000 km drive awaiting π
Here’s the route of our relocation to Span trip!
A long drive, I know. But we love traveling and as you can see, we will make 3 stops between our starting and final destination so it wonβt be hard or boring at all.
I said it has to do a little with freelance, right?
If both my boyfriend and I were not freelancers, I doubt that we would ever even think (let alone manage) to just pick our stuff and move to another country because we wanted. There – thank you, freelance, for letting me do what I want and when I like.
I said it has to do a little with travel, right?
Besides the 3,000 kilometers drive that we are going to do to get there, we certainly will take our time visiting Ljubljana, Milan and Barcelona on our way there. And on top of it all, there are pretty cheap air fares from Alicante to basically all European countries (including Scandinavian countries) – which would have cost us a fortune from my home country, soβ¦ there, we will commit to traveling in Europe next 12 months – both by car and with cheap airplane tickets π
I also said it has to do a little with freedom, right?
Well, I guess the freedom comes with being a successful freelancer. But I feel super happy that I have the freedom to just pick up my things and move to another country (ehm, I said this already?!). I am super happy that I can plan my work this way that I can be out-of-pocket for good two weeks while on the road. I am super happy that I can explore the world, meet new people, get to know new cultures, learn new languages, and so much more.
I am super excited about this adventure – you probably can tell, I rarely post personal things on this blog π
Please, forgive me for the lack or slow speed of comments’ responses and supporting you through comments and social media love. I donβt really expect my internet connection to be that good on the road. New posts are scheduled so you won’t miss me much. Thanks in advance for continuing reading and commenting on my blog while I’m away π
Enjoy! I’m excited for you. I hope you have a good camera.
awesome! divertirse!
maybe I will pop down to visit! I like spain :>
Best of luck with your move, and on your travels, Diana! π I’ll pray you stay safe and don’t have any unforseen problems! π
How exciting for you! I hope you will continue to post about your journey even though you don’t normally post personal things. Save travels to you both!
What a great trip. You didn’t mention the advantage of living on the sunny coast of Spain! Good luck and have fun.
That is so totally awesome! I hope you take lots of pictures and share some of your adventures with us.
Enjoy the adventure and new beginnings in Spain! π
Hey, guys! Thank you so much for your comments… didn’t expect such engagement on this post but i truly thank you for your support, encouragement and best wishes!
Not sure about posting pictures from our travels but i sure will update you one way or the other once i am all settled. Stay tuned! π
I spent most of my childhood in Spain. I wish I could just pack up and head back for a long over-due road trip. Just need to keep working and hopefully I will be able to soon.
sounds like a great plan, Timothy! from what i saw on your site and blog – you are headed right up that way so good luck and many happy clients π In the meantime, voy a estudiar espanol – not many (if any) speak English here LOL
