The two men jumped out of thin air, smiling, gesturing, waving an exotic smell under my nose, and I was hooked. I had a list of ‘musts’ to experience in India. Some call this being a tourist. I’m going to see something I’ve heard about, ... Read more >

For a long time, Tiffany has been insisting me to write what are the things that, under my foreigner point of view, have called my attention in our Australian experience so far. I have been delaying the writing of this post for ... Read more >

Being poor of purse, but rich in eloquence, let us look back over our two months with The Van with but a drop of nostalgia. Blue skies have taken over as the propelling force, just as we once took over from the Hussy Hicks ... Read more >

And we have handed over the Ambassador Van to a new crew. As World Nomad Ambassadors we have traveled this wide brown land, tapping our fingers on the keyboard along the way. We’ve watched the kilometer thingy flicking over with hypnotic repetition.... Read more >

(I
haven’t uploaded conversations on the road for some time because, as we all
know, familiarity breeds contempt, and in this case, enclosure in a little van
erased what little sense of humour I had left after our India trip. However,

The old sandstone
buildings are being restored, the botanical gardens are pretty (I loved the
Japanese garden and huge golden bamboo), and we now sit in the Rockhampton Art Gallery
sipping coffee and indulging our lap top caprice. ... Read more >

The greatest
thing about leaving Cairns
for the less populated areas was the re-emergence of the stars. Its one of the great healing sights for me
and getting away from the electric lights of a town is a big positive.

we knew that we were going to take this trip, and even before thinking of
coming to North Queensland, Ginny (Tiffany’s

I honestly didn’t think that much about Port Douglas. It was
pricey and the locals (we met) sneering arrogant types I haven’t memory space
for.
Just as we were leaving, Albert suggested we take a look at
ANZAC park and enjoy ... Read more >

We entered the
Atherton Tableland from Queensland’s
highest town, Ravenshoe. One evening we

I have to
admit that when I was researching for this trip, one of the things that quickly
