This isn’t a new thing for me of course. Short trips really don’t do it for me, I like the fully immersive experience of spending considerable amounts of time on the road and away from it all. That’s not to say I don’t spend weekends or short periods of under two weeks Landy camping. That’s the joy of being kitted out at all times, if I like a place or simply fancy it, I can stay wherever I find myself, even if that’s just for the night, at the drop of a hat. But, I now have another opportunity to spend many months living in Ralph. Where and why is not something I’m going to divulge for now. To be honest the details aren’t concrete yet anyway so I couldn’t share them if I wanted to, but what is for sure is that I will soon move into the L322 for a considerable amount of time. This time though, it is far more likely (although not yet definite) that I will be based in one place for a change rather than moving on each day. While I might be 'living' in one rather awesome location for months, I will want to do a lot of exploring further afield during that time, and this will include overnight or several night stays away. So how will my things need to differ from my current tried and tested setup? There are things we all need in life. Being a psychologist, I immediately thought of Maslow and his well known hierarchy of needs. It certainly helps break things down into digestible chunks. This month is Chunk One: Basic Physiological Needs.
