self confidence in Vandwelling

[Roadtripp]

There are as many reasons people vandwell as there are van dwellers. Each person has nuances and subjectivity. However,  I have a hunch that people who were moved by their parents several times at a young age got used to change. Some may hate it. Those that get moved too much maybe. Some may take to it. Subconsciously an consciously. I was born and raised in Africa, went back and forth to England, moved to England, then to America, back to England, then settled in America until adulthood. I’m told I crawled through a hole in the hedge in Africa at age 2 and set up shop with some Africans. And Safari was what I dreamed of and assumed my life was going to be. I’ve always been outgoing. Until being sent to boarding school in England where I was shamed, guilt tripped, and beaten and told it was bad to be myself and I must be something else. So I tried to be a good little soldier for decades and was miserable. Recently I realized I’m my most relaxed and myself when I think I’m on a Safari. So that’s what I’m going to do.
