Apologies for the long hiatus. I’ve been on a much needed screen break.
As a reward to self for finishing my thesis last August, I decided to drive to Tasmania via the NSW and Victorian coastal roads during the summer break. After five weeks on the road, I crossed into South Australia at Mt Gambier today and will commence the homeward journey tomorrow, which I anticipate will take anywhere up to a week.
Following are some of the highlights from the journey so far: 35 pics representing 35 days…

Though far from comprehensive, I hope this post has provided a taste of what the past five weeks held. I will endeavour to post more pics from my time on Bruny Island and on the Great Ocean Road in the coming days. In the meantime, let me know if you’d like more pics or more details about any of these adventures…
I could get used to this lifestyle… xo

Day 3 warms the heart of this old psychologist. [Besides I like dirty pictures.] Good to see you posting and back on the road again.

Hi lou, you are taunting me with all these casual pics of koalas ๐ฆ as if you’d happen to come across them everywhere …

Hahaha I know right?!!! Iโve never seen them in the wild until this summer. Then first at Raymond Island and then just casually crossing the road down the Victorian coast. They are so ridiculously cute. You have to come back so we can go on a koala hunting roadtrip ๐จ๐๐
