Right before leaving Australia my last adventure was to head across to Tasmania and go on one final road trip. I’d wanted to visit for so long, and even tried to find farm work in the area, but time flew by and before I knew it I was only a few weeks away from my…
Back home to Scotland
Well, it’s been about seven months since I last wrote a blog. Every time I’ve tried I’ve been more and more overwhelmed with how behind I am that I instead ignore it and get even further behind! So, I’m going to ease myself in with a nice easy one as to where I’m at now,…
Coober Pedy
Coober Pedy is a small town in northern South Australia famous for its opal mining, and is a fascinating stop on the road trip through the red centre. Before visiting I’d heard all about this ‘underground town’ and was so excited to see a whole town built underground, expecting a barren wasteland overground. In reality,…

Road trip through the Red Centre
Setting off from Adelaide with the aim to drive to Darwin, Adam and I began our road trip through the ‘red centre’ of Australia. We had no time limit for how long the trip should take us, we just took each day as it came, deciding there and then whether to carry on or spend…
Four days in Adelaide
To finish off our Great Ocean Road trip we hit up the City of Adelaide. After spending five nights camping, we chose to opt for a little luxury before another few weeks camping en route to Darwin. After struggling to find nice accommodation at a reasonable price that wasn’t already booked up on my regular…

We took the road all the way to Adelaide, but you can finish in Allansford, the official last town of the Great Ocean Road…
A day out on Phillip Island
A short drive from Melbourne CBD is the tourist hotspot Phillip Island. It’s a small island at just 26km long and 9km wide and is connected to the mainland by a short bridge crossing. Before packing up the car and beginning our Great Ocean Road and Red Centre outback adventure we decided to make the…
Melbourne living (for two weeks)
First stop in hitting the road from Shepparton was to head back down south to my favourite city of Melbourne for a few weeks. Adam still had two weeks left of work at this point, so I used the chance to be a lady of leisure and enjoy chilling out for two weeks in the city. While…
Farm life in Mooroopna and Shepparton
Something that inevitably comes with doing farm work is living in a rural part of Australia. For us, that meant living in Mooroopna, a small town in Victoria nicknamed ‘Fruit salad city’. Most of our days here were spent working or recovering on our few days off, but we tried our best to fit in…
