You can describe that with one word. "Ambivert"

You will! Stay tuned :) I do not have a target date yet. I have some health problems, so this upcoming doctor's appointment will hopefully be insightful to plan accordingly for this journey. I still have to buy a tow vehicle and travel trailer, so I am expecting to be on the road in a few...
