Weekend away

Bunya Mountains

We have a small window of opportunity from 9am Wednesday until 3pm Thursday so we pack the car and hit the road. Our destination is the Bunya Mountains, about three hours drive from our house. Our first stop is Kilcoy. We visit Kilcoy Quality Meats, which is an amazing butcher shop where steaks are cut…

March 15, 2017 in Australia, Car touring, Hiking, Museum, Queensland, Weekend away.

Time for breakfast. Having the van hasn't just got us out exploring overnight most weekends, it has also changed my mindset on a daily basis. I drive the van to training and work. When I have swimming or work shifts in Redcliffe, I boil up a cup of tea and bowl of porridge at the beach. That's 2-3 days each week. #vanlife #boilthekettle #thisisliving #lifeinbalance #livetothemax
We have a new addition to our van thanks to my dad. He gave us his old Engel fridge. So no more bags of ice or wet food.
Another night in our van. The house lights aren't working so we're resorting to using the pineapple light instead. #vanlifediaries #weekendaway #livingwell #campervan
I used to think I had to travel to exotic places to see beautiful things. But I've learned that everywhere is exotic to someone. #sunset #suburbanlife #thingsiseeatwork #supportworker
My other happy place: sleeping in our van #vanlifediaries #vanlife #weekendaway
I've always chased seniority and money in my work. But perhaps it's time to measure life by something different: how often I smile. I am privileged to have a choice of career. I am also privileged to work in a country where supporting people to achieve their goals is valued and paid work. My workmates' photos of me are often random but always show me smiling. This photo was taken while I was carrying fishing gear back to the van after the rain hit our fishing outing. #dowhatyoulove #measurelifebysmiles #supportworker #livingwell
