Snapshots from our van.

One of the tiniest storage areas in our van is the place where we keep our toothbrushes and toiletries. It was made by a happy accident, where two pieces of cladding overlapped, and it’s turned out to be one of the most useful things we have in our tiny home.

Another complete lap around the sun, and this is how I celebrated. Locked down, grounded, yet utterly free and liberated.⁣⁠⠀

Wild swimming was one of the few luxuries of freedom afforded to us over the lockdown, so I embraced it.⁣⁠⠀⁣⁠⠀

The water, gorgeously cool in the summer, bit and stung at my flesh as I eased myself in. The level was higher than usual after such heavy rains that it lapped at the grassy slope down and covered the quag trees below.⁣⁠⠀⁣⁠⠀

Those same heavy rains had turned the pleasant walk to our favourite swimhole into a treacherous bog of sticky mud, which I’d plucked my way through barefoot as Ben sloshed across in his boots. Nothing would deter us; our reward at the end was total, blissful isolation.⁣⁠⠀

I managed just a few strokes, pushing out into the icy lake while focussing on the serene view across the water and trying to control my breathing.⁣⁠⠀⁣⁠⠀

I was sad to have lost my cold water tolerance after so many months on dry land, but the endless views soothed my anxieties and calmed my mind.⁣⁠⠀

After a while, you don’t really feel the cold; it’s numbing, biting, tingling and exhilarating all at once, but it is not in the least unpleasant. The fear of the unknown depths below is thrilling, but the sense of aloneness and oneness with the wild is even more so.⁣⁠⠀

I swam for all of a few minutes before I bailed out, to be greeted by Ben who wrapped a dry towel around my shoulders and I dried off, shivering and proud.⁣⁠⠀

I never imagined this is how I’d be spending my birthday in 2021, but nothing this past year could be considered normal, so we embrace and adapt as we humans know so well how to do. Who knows where we’ll be next year?⁣⁠⠀⁣⁠⠀

{My birthday was last month so please spare the kind messages, it just took me a while to work up the courage to post this image 💙}⠀

#Repost @fromrusttoroadtrip • • • Are we the only ones who, when it starts snowing outside our van, don’t shy away and close the doors, but instead fling them open and jump outside, throwing snowballs and catching snowflakes on our tongues? Because life’s too short not to have snow in your eyelashes and icy numb toes, and there’s always hot tea waiting inside… ☕ #Follow the hashtag #Fromrusttoroadtrip to follow our van conversion project and our travels around Europe! 🌍

Platform migration- will it affect Search Engine Rankings?

Hi all, we are just in the process of migrating our website onto a new platform and wanted to ask about Search Engine Rankings. We were previously on Wix but are now moving to Squarespace, but completely rebuilding the website from the ground up and only copying across a few articles and blog posts we really want, so basically an entirely new website with the same domain name. Some of the pages on our old website are now doing quite well in Search Engine Rankings but as we are copying these over to the new site and the old one will only be available under Wix's default domain now I wondered if there was a way to prevent our SEO from taking a dive bomb? Is there a way to boost our rankings on the new site or is it literally starting from zero? (Think I read something about robots.txt and XML sitemaps online but it's a bit confusing to me as the index of pages won't be the same after migrating). ​ Thanks for all the help! Sorry my SEO knowledge is only quite basic at this point. submitted by /u/FromRustToRoadtrip [link] [comments] https://www.reddit.com/r/SEO/comments/m45an7/platform_migration_will_it_affect_search_engine/

I once heard that to enjoy the wild, sometimes you must succumb to boredom, and it’s kind of true. In a contemporary society, so full of distractions replacing actions, boredom can seem like a radical thing.⁣⁣⁠

5 minutes spare? Check your phone. Waiting for the bus? Check your phone. Having a lie in? Can’t sleep? Bored? Check your phone.⁣⁣⁠⠀

Never for one moment in this technologically enhanced culture do we need to suffer boredom when there’s a million things to do at the flick of a screen, yet these things serve no purpose other than to pass time. They have no meaning, they create no lasting memories, challenge or stimulate us. Often we don’t notice the voices in our phone screens, billions of them chiming in at once, how loud they call until we shut them off.⁣⁣⁠⠀

Silence.⁣⁣⁠⠀

⁣⁣⁠⠀

Our nights camping in the valleys of North Wales were a deliberate motion to disconnect ourselves for a few days; without even a lick of signal we were forced to make our own fun.⁣⁣⁠⠀

⁣⁣⁠⠀

Camping in the wilds of Snowdonia with nothing but a tent and a car to hold our supplies forced us to live deliberately, in a way that not even our van enables us to. For the bare minimum of comfort there’s the arduous process of setting up a tent, inflating a mattress, collecting firewood, coaxing a fire into life and preparing a meal on its white hot coals. By the time all this is done, and we’ve spent the best part of an afternoon seeking out a camp spot, there’s little else we want to do than fall into bed beneath the stars and soak in the absolute silence around us.⁣⁣⁠

Without the temptations of TV, or the endless scroll of social media at our fingertips our thoughts can breathe, and by physically distancing ourselves from our problems for a while we can gain a deeper perspective. The picturesque valleys of North Wales, crowded with flocks of sheep and little else, offered us the one thing we’ve been lacking these past months: solitude.⁣⁠
