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.
A day in Santa Barbara
I enjoy the morning at the hotel, because they have a comfortabel check-out time of 12pm. That gives me enough time for some work, breakfast and a last swim in the pool. I decide to drive down to Santa Barbara which is about halfway back to LA and see there if I’ll continue driving or find a hotel in that beach town.
Ocean escape
The hotel I’m staying at now is a beautiful spot. It’s just between two towns and is right at the ocean. There is a nice swimming pool and jacuzzi outside and the room is quite large and has everything I need.
Back to the ocean
The hotel I’m staying at is really nice. It’s called Historic Holiday hotel and it feels very old and authentic. In the morning I have a view of the Hollywood sign as I requested for during check in.
Where the movies and tv shows are made
This morning I feel a bit stuck. After several awesome days, I’m not sure where to go from here. As I’m doing some emails in the morning, Nancy says bye quickly, because she goes back to work today. I have breakfast, pack my bags and chat a bit more with her parents as good as I can. Even though I’ve been practicing Spanish on my phone since the last time I was here, it’s still challenging to actually have a conversation in Spanish. We understand each other quite a bit and I’m glad got to meet them again.
