Our journey from Warrnambool to Cobar marked the beginning of a new chapter, chasing the sun and warmer days.

Selling our house in Melbourne was one of the biggest decisions we’ve ever made — and one of the best. Letting go of bricks and mortar gave us the freedom to live life on the road full-time.

Without the usual cascade of water, the sheer basalt cliffs took centre stage, revealing the volcanic history that shaped this area.

The Murtoa Stick Shed is definitely worth a visit. It’s not just a piece of agricultural history, but a hidden gem for architecture and history lovers alike. We were so glad we made the detour to check it out!

If you’re ever passing through, be sure to stop by the Woomelang Shearing Shed and check out the silo art trail. It’s a rare chance to connect with Australia’s rural past and witness the community’s dedication to preserving its story.

We pulled into Lake Lascelles in Hopetoun, Victoria, planning for a quick stop. Instead, we found ourselves lingering, drawn in by the peaceful atmosphere and the stunning lakeside setting.

We swapped red dirt for lake views at Lake Lonsdale, with a visit to Seppelt’s Great Western for a dose of history, cool underground cellars, and a cheeky drop or two of sparkling shiraz.

Our first motorhome trip from Geelong to Eden was equal parts chaos and discovery. We packed too much, sang off-key in a winery, and learned fast that the road has its own rhythm.
