“Celebrate endings for they precede new beginnings.” What a year of change it’s been and it continues. So much has happened since we returned from our big road trip. We’ve changed our lifestyle, choosing to work in the Grampians and commuting back and forth to our home for the past three months. Now for the … More When Endings become New Beginnings
Now I’m not suggesting you can do the Grampians in 24 hours. There’s so much to experience, from the “Wonderland” hikes to the magic of Mackenzies Falls, from wineries and wildlife to everything in between. I’ve blogged about this area many times. Still, there’s always new places to discover. So on our day off from … More 24 Hours in the Grampians
It’s been over a month since we returned from our epic trip around Australia, a trip that morphed from three months on the road to ten. Not only did we journey through the centre of Australia and the length of the west coast, but it took me through a bit of an inner journey of … More Changing Course in the Grampians
As we settle back into Victoria after our epic ten months travelling around Australia, I reflect on our time away and how grateful I am for it all Looking back it’s hard to know where to start so thank goodness for this blog which allowed me to journal our adventures. With so much wow factor … More When the Journey Changes Direction
After leaving the moody blues on the Eyre Peninsula coastline we head inland and begin our adventure in the Gawler Ranges. Our first stop is Wudinna, pronounced Wuddna, as said a truckie on the UHF radio coming into town. It has a nice vibe, there’s a huge statue of The Australian Farmer, a scenic 30km … More Exploring the Gawler Ranges
Cliff top camps, rugged ocean views and a roller coaster of emotions was all part of my stay on South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula. Here’s a lowdown on our time along this wild woolly coastline. After crossing the Nullarbor, Ceduna and falling in love with Our Patch at Perlubie Beach, for 16 amazing nights, it was … More Campsites and Moody Blues on the Eyre Peninsula
After leaving Ceduna we continued along the South Australian coastline, with a rough plan to check out Perlubie Beach before heading to Streaky Bay. I’d seen drone photos of popular Perlubie with lots of vans and campers parked along its long sandy beach. We’d heard a-lot of stories about tides and cars getting bogged but … More Our Patch at Perlubie
From Hopetoun we head to the Duke of Orleans Bay, a coastal stretch of wilderness and one of WA’s most beautiful beaches. There we strike up a few connections, both new and old. … More Connecting at The Duke of Orleans
Once again it feels as though the Universe is guiding us. Soon after we leave Denmark, bushfires rage through and around the area. We’re unaffected. And the day after we visit Wyllie Bay in Cape Le Grand National Park there’s a shark attack not far from the beach we swam at, literally 24 hours earlier. … More From Wave Rock to the South West Coast
Our two nights at Parry Beach campsite near Denmark are a real treat. With the beach only minutes away and tropical bushland surrounding our camp site, we have the best of both worlds. For the first time in ages it’s cool and we’re allowed camp fires, so it’s wonderful to sit and share laughs with … More From Cheese Tasting to Cliff Hugging – Denmark to Albany
