blog kleinschalige camping aan meer in Limousin - Frankrijk

Food for thought

blog afsluiting 2022

A frequently asked question from guests at the campsite is: 'How did you ever end up here?'.

The answer is not very complicated. When I was still playing with Lego, my father once gave me the advice 'Do not become a gray mouse'. At the time I didn't quite understand what he meant. Actually, I mainly wondered which color would be better then 😁

Our fathers died shortly after each other in 2014, much too soon of course. A confrontational moment after which Marian and I both felt the need to start living differently. We weren't exactly sure why, but emigrating to France felt like the right move. The advice about the gray mouse in mind...

This year the campsite was packed with inspiring guests. People who approach life just a little differently than usual. Say off the beaten track. For example, this year there were a striking number of people who traded a 'safe' life (and the associated social status) for a camper to live in. They travel through Europe and experience a lot along the way.

The stories they tell are full of fascinating insights. That's why we like listening to them. During those conversations, inspiration always bubbles up to do something new ourselves. Gaining new experiences. That doesn't have to be as drastic as this example. Even small changes in the daily routine give satisfaction. The point is that not our environment, but we ourselves are at the wheel of life.
