Let’s talk audio books
Let’s talk audiobooks (and the apps to listen to them). Firstly, your local library and/or school may provide certain audio book apps for free, so where you can take advantage of that! We all love a good saving on the road In order of preference (based on free ones we had available to us), here…

11 months on the road
11 months on the road – we’re now at the point where fellow travellers’ eyes look a bit wide when they ask how long we have been travelling. Followed by the sympathetic look when they, and we, realise it’s almost over. We spent the whole month in Nth Queensland and rapidly came to the conclusion…

Five months on the road
That’s much too close to six months for our liking, we’re not ready to be halfway through… On the plus side, we had two surprise visitors this month and spent some quality time on the Eyre Peninsula. We know we’re super behind on our blog, so consider this your highlight reel before the more specific…

Four months on the road
January saw us spend more precious time in Tassie, celebrate Miss Matilda’s birthday, sail across the high seas again, discover the gem that is Geelong and return to Ballarat after 17 years. It was also about spending time with some great people, be it old friends, adopted family, fellow travellers we had met along the…
