Day 29 It’s still raining on Day 29 and I have a sneaking suspicion it will be until I drop Nomalita off at Traveller’s Autobarn. It doesn’t matter today though — we’re going winetasting. Daniel goes for a swim and a sauna in the morning while ... Read more >

Day 27 I confess we didn’t want to leave suburbia behind. Scott’s bathroom was bigger than my bedroom in New York City, nevermind Nomalita. But it wasn’t just the amenities that made our two days in Coffs so nice, it was the comfort that came with ... Read more >

Day 25 When traveling, it’s rare to experience a slice of “normal” life. You’re exploring a new city and seeing the sights, soaking up the sun on magnificent beaches, exploring ancient ruins or discovering the great outdoors. What you’re not doing, ... Read more >

Day 24 It seems like not that long ago I was walking down Macleay Street in Potts Point, Sydney, popping into gourmet cafes and swanky bookstores. Now I’m sitting in Kempsey, NSW, on the Macleay river popping into the van. Only 300 K away and a ... Read more >

Day 22 Day 22. It began with waves crashing softly on the Putty Beach shores only 20 meters to our right. I woke up not to roommates stumbling in drunk at 6 a.m. but to fisherman pulling in to set up camp for the day. Other than one highly amusing ... Read more >

Day 19 Short day…. July 4 is my favorite holiday at home. Summer barbeques, beach parties, free music, fireworks — you can’t beat it. Yeah, I was pretty sure I’d like Australia Day. Exhausted from Big Day Out, I took my time getting out for the ... Read more >

Day 18 Back in February when I decided to come to Australia, one of the first things I did was look up who would be playing Big Day Out. It wasn’t posted all the way back then, but either way, I decided I’d be going some way, some how. Then in July ... Read more >

Day 16 One thing about staying in the mountains is that it’s fuh-reaking cold! The Australian sun is brutal, but when it sets up there the warmth rushes from the air like dirt up a vacuum. I woke up shivering to cloudy skies and a damp mountain ... Read more >

Day 14 & 15 “Chop chop ladies, chop chop!” shouted Jayden. Crystal and I raced on. Let me explain. The remainder of yesterday evening was enhanced greatly by the presence of the five boys camping next door. After the sun set, they (and we) were ... Read more >

Day 12 & 13 I’m lying on the grass in the greenest place I have ever been in my life. We’ve just arrived in the teeny town, or shall I say, campground, of Bendeela, about 40 minutes outside Wollongong. Sydney is only two hours away, but it could ... Read more >

Day 11 Well, today was just one of those days. Let me preface this post by saying we have had absolutely perfect weather the past 12 days. Could not have asked for better. Today, finally, it rained. ... Read more >

Day 10 The key to roadtripping is, one might say, is to find the perfect balance between the actual driving and the “other” stuff. Eating, sightseeing, hiking, etc. For some, the idea of spending six hours in a car — tunes blaring, windows ... Read more >

Day 8 First things first, Wilson’s Promontory was one of the first Australian National Parks I’d ever gone to in Australia, so it did hold a special place in my heart. Back then in September, I saw herds of kangaroos basking in the sunlight of a ... Read more >
