Travelling to Coober Pedy
I stayed at a little roadhouse/caravan park at the corner of the Lasseter Highway and Stuart Highway. I set up my tent and cooked dinner with music playing from the car. It doesn’t get better than that. I sat with a coffee looking at the stars and just marvelling at this feeling of freedom. I… Continue reading

Meeting My Place in the Sun
I keep feeling these incredible feelings of happiness. It is unbelievable. I just can’t stop smiling. I feel so happy and I find myself repeating it every day. I have to write a poem, but never can my poetry bring you this feeling, as it is pure joy. I don’t need anything but what I… Continue reading
Luritja People of Kings Canyon
It is interesting when I am searching for information about the indigneous people and the diversity between tribes, I find it difficult to find out more about their culture. I am curious as to why? I am aware there is a men’s dreaming in the King’s Canyon, but I don’t know what that was about.… Continue reading
Watarrka National Park: Kings Canyon
I visited Kings Canyon today and was deeply impressed by the fact that it is 350 million years old. A large crack appeared through natural forces and the canyon was formed. Originally this place was covered by an inland sea and you can see the ripples etched into the rocks. Moreover, the sand crystalised and… Continue reading
Kings Canyon Camping Ground
Had breakfast at the campground. Interestingly a garbage man came in and I asked a question. He ended up wanting to talk to me. He said Yulara, the name of the town where I am, means crying. He then proceeded to tell me that a corporate property trust (ILC) had bought up all the places… Continue reading

Visiting the Olga’s (Kata Tjuta) and life here
Started off my day having breakfast and chatting with a guy from Israel. He was expressing how expensive Australia is. That doesn’t surprise me, I told him many Australian’s would agree, we have duopolies in food retail (Woolworths and Coles) and they keep the prices at parity and high. There has been an inquiry into… Continue reading

Being at Uluru
Yesterday whilst I was walking around Uluru and observing the other people, some climbing, some walking. I asked the ancestral spirits for permission to climb the rock, I wanted to be respectful of their customs as the big sign was saying they don’t want people climbing the rock and they had fears of people falling.… Continue reading
