10 days living in a flat

function updateHeaderHeight() { // Get the height of #brx-header const headerHeight = document.querySelector('#brx-header').offsetHeight; // Store the height in the CSS custom property --header-height document.documentElement.style.setProperty('--brxw-header-height', headerHeight + 'px'); } // Execute the function as soon as the document is ready document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() { updateHeaderHeight(); // Initial update of header height when the document is ready // Update the header height on window resize and orientation change window.addEventListener('resize', updateHeaderHeight); window.addEventListener('orientationchange', updateHeaderHeight); });

After nearly a year of living in my van, I spent 10 days in a top floor apartment in the middle of Athens (Marti’s place – meet her here)

My thoughts:

It’s quiet. Like really still. No wind. No rain. No animals. No sounds. It’s strange
waking up in a solid high ceiling room with sunlight bursting through the window feels quite nice
Where is everyone? There must be over 100 people living in this building
Toilet and shower is pretty cool
Carrying bike up 6 floors is annoying
After 5 days: was the van thing all one big strange dream?
After 7 days: maybe becoming a bit lazy. Lacking motivation. I started to laze about and wasted hours watching prank videos on YouTube when it was sunny outside. What the hell.

It’s interesting how quickly you get used to a way of living and how quickly you can go back. It’s been really nice here but for now, I like washing my clothes in a bucket. Back to the van…

Now it’s Marti’s turn to come and live in the van…
