Spa at the Lake

Ever wonder how personal hygiene and VanLife mix?  This is a prime example of a day at the “spa”.  Kaitlin takes her self care out to the dock and tries to pamper herself in beautiful Lake Cowichan.

Sometimes you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do to feel like a princess.  Sometimes that involves cold water shaving and a swimming dog that will not let you be.

I wonder sometimes how we ended up here and how we get to move forward from here.  For so much of my life I took warm water and unlimited access to it for granted, living in a motorhome has changed a lot of that for me.  I have come to appreciate even the most frigid waters, being in a place like British Columbia certainly helps us stay clean, but I am reminded of times I had taken more than my share of clean water in places where it is much harder to come by.  I am grateful everyday for this place and this experience will never let me go back to a world of over use and creature comforts I had gotten so used to, the ones I had taken for granted for so long.  Sorry about that…
