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

I stayed overnight at the roadhouse/caravan park just before the turnoff to Uluru. Met up with a guy called David who told me he was from Adelaide. Had just been to the rock and had a few weeks holiday with his wife and child Amber. He told me he had traveled all over Africa for… Continue reading
Leaving Alice Springs Feeling the Love
Well I had an amazing night with Nicki and told her about my philosophy peppering in the economic language that we are all accustomed to define our reality.

Enlightening the Road of My Life
The tent is my cathedral,
My bed and my desk my possessions,
Setting the stage for lifes precession

I can sweat with the heat,
And listen to the insects crawl,
For this is the Australian crawl,
That can never lose.
I hammer… Continue reading
Ilfracombe to Winton Outback Queensland
I drove 278 km’s today. I drove through such flat country yet changing every 10km. Really spectacular country. I arrived in Winton and went to the Information Centre. I saw Banjo Patterson’s statue and the words of Waltzing Matilda. This is a song that many Australian’s of my generation and older equate as the real… Continue reading
Charleville to Ilfracombe Outback Queensland
Today is Thursday 11th August. I awoke to a motorcycle warming up. I found this at another caravan park, they warm their bikes. They are not thinking of the rumble affecting all the sleeping campers. I have to laugh. I used to ride a bike, I know why they warm up, but they can take… Continue reading

I decided to go to the camp fire at the caravan park last night. A few people were still there at 8.30pm. I sat next to a couple from Norway and Finland (husband and wife). We talked about our lives. They told me they had a friend… Continue reading
