Melbourne. Love that place.

That said, it would take a fair degree of persuasion for us to leave Cairns. It was cool last night, given that it's the middle of winter. I had to put on my special winter long shorts, and upgrade from a singlet to a tshirt.

Thanks!
Matto :)

Come December we are leaving Melbourne and travelling around Australia for 15 months and moving to Brisbane when we have finished if we dont settle anywhere else first...

We're keen to move to the Port Macquarie area, but so far can't see how to fund this.

That's how we started, and could have settled at a number of destinations Tassie was our last stop before heading back to Adelaide. Have fun on your trip :cheers:

I'd move out of suburbia and into the country ... or beachside country ... anywhere but bloody suburbia ... and definitely away from the Big Smoke.

Why would I want to move away from here?

Mild summers, only some cold days in winter [less than 7 frosts per year], across the road from the golf club & 2 mins from locking the hubs when 4wding & hundreds of fantastic camping spots within an hour or so.

Where I currently live is not too bad...sure it's a bit of a drive to the beach but at least living out here, we're on the edge of the outback and a long way from the rat race. Best of both worlds and if I want a break from it, well, that is what the camper is for!!  ;D
