Missing Kent

Just got back to London from a few days in the Kent countryside and already I'm missing the calm, quiet nature. I sat down to start editing some video - I need to do some voiceovers , e.t.c., - but I am way too tired now. Also, there's just too much noise coming from my surroundings for comfort.

Here are 3 realisations I've come to;

1. I need wellies! Can you believe that I've ever owned a pair of Wellington boots? Especially living in England? It's crazy. I had a trusty pair of Karrimor shoes that were clearly made for a different terrain and weather conditions.

2. I need to find a way to get along with dogs. Almost every time I'm in the beautiful countryside and decide to go on long quiet walks in nature, the experience is always somewhat ruined by random (and sudden) appearances of dogs. Of course that's a normal thing, dogs in England, and I am the problem, not the dogs, but still.

3. I really love Kent. I live in London, but I spend about 20% of my time in Kent. I keep going back there. It's probably because I lived there for 4 years or so before moving to London. Yes I lived in beautiful Canterbury for four years.

There you go. In case you've been wondering where my VEDA videos went, it's because I didn't have any access to the Internet in my bush camp site :) . Well, it's kind of 'glamour camping' - which means the tents were huge and already provided. There was also a gas stove, even though we only used the wood fire stove outdoors. The only access to electricity was from solar panels while the loos were 100% compost types. Very sustainable stuff.

Peace and Love ✌🏿
