After an early breakfast at the hotel I drive to Zion National Park. It’s only 15 minutes to Angel’s Landing Trailhead, the hike I want to do today. It’s still very quiet in the park, though I see a few people on the trail. It’s -2 degrees Celsius, 29 degrees Fahrenheit outside, so quite chilly.

Road trip to Zion
I believe that life is often more about the journey than the destination, but today’s roadtrip is the other way around. I have decided to go to Zion national Park in Utah, because I think will regret it if I don’t go there.
Last day in San Diego before new road trip
Now that I’m still close to the beach I want to take advantage of that and go for a long run at the beach in the morning.
Hike to the hidden swing
I had planned on going on a road trip again tomorrow, but since I’m enjoying my time in this Airbnb so much, I think that I’d like to stay another day. I text my host and ask if I can extend with one day. That’s not a problem and also the booking of the rental car is easily changed for a day later. This will give me one more day to work and relax in San Diego.
City trail and farmers market
This morning I talk with a few people back home and hearing all about the grey weather and stuff doesn’t make me to eager to go back in a few weeks. At the moment I feel like I could stay here a lot longer, but my savings account would disagree with that idea. It’s probably good to go back at some point.
Living the live of a digital nomad
It’s another workday today here in San Diego. That’s part of being a modern nomad. Business has to keep going, so I can pay for the vacation.
Work in the morning, fun in the afternoon
I wake up around 4am, way before the alarm clock. Most times I like it when that happens. It gives me some more time to begin the day in a relaxed way and to start work early.
Back to San Diego
Today I’ve planned to drive back to San Diego, because I have booked an Airbnb for the coming week and have to return the rental car tomorrow. Interestingly enough I’m not too excited about going back. I loved living in San Diego for a few weeks, but after all the adventures of this mini road trip, I feel like keeping on traveling.
Wonderful time at the Warner Bros. Studios
This morning I drive to Warner Bros. Studios once again, because one of the guides told me yesterday that I might come back today and that someone can show me more of the Stars Hollow set. It wasn’t for certain yet, so I’m a bit nervous, but when I arrive I see the friendly same lady as yesterday.
Back in Hollywood
I don’t feel like working much this morning, so I continue driving early. I follow the Highway 1 along the coast. Pacific Highway 1 is in my opinion one of the most beautiful drives in the US.
