These guys were hanging out in our backyard at Grampians National Park.
You could see some of the moms having their babies in their pouches.
Pretty cool

Today we departed from Melbourne and drove along the Great Ocean Road. I’m sure Tina will blog about it soon but I just wanted to write a quick post from my iPhone to try the new WordPress app. I know, I’m kind of a geek. Anyways.
So the Great Ocean Road is this strip of [...]
We spent 4 days in Sydney. We stayed in Potts Point which was within walking distance (approximately 3.5 kilometers) to the downtown Sydney harbor. It appeared to be filled with different backpacker accommodations. It also had a McDonald’s which provided free wireless.
Sebastien found a short term studio apartment rental called Azure Apartments. [...]
Sebastien and I finally did a touristy thing and took a day tour to Fraser Island. After Byron Bay we took an 11 hour bus trip up to Hervey Bay. We stayed with a wonderful and loving family whom we meet through helpx. We helped Catherine and Peter (parents) with various things around their home [...]
On November 17th, we traveled by bus to the town of Mullumbumby. We were going to stay with Claudia and Raman who we connected with through helpx. Their house was up in the mountains about 15 minutes from town. They own about 25 acers of beautiful land. Claudia is an art and [...]
In her last blog post, Tina briefly mentioned that we stayed at First Sun in Byron Bay. I thought this place needed to be highlighted because it is truly a nice and inexpensive place.

After Clare’s house we were dropped off at First Sun which is a camp/cabin/lodge area right on the beach in Byron Bay. We had booked 4 nights and were hoping for beautiful weather and surf. Unfortunately, none of the five days we spent in our little lodge on the beach included good waves. [...]
On November 8th, Sebastien and I took a bus, County Link, from Burleigh Heads to Byron Bay. Once we arrived in Byron Bay we were picked up by the lovely Clare Hopkins and she took us to her home in Bangalow.
In order for us to do this trip for more than a month we will [...]
On November 1st, we arrived at my mom’s friend Jan’s house. That evening we went out to dinner in Gilbert and enjoyed some creme brulee. Ummm. The next day, Sebastien did some work and I ran errands. Mitch (my car) got a good cleaning and I repacked for the 15th time. In the afternoon we [...]
We finally scheduled our departure for the first leg of our year-long trip and we’ll be leaving from Los Angeles to Brisbane, Australia on November 3rd. We found some pretty inexpensive flights on Qantas for about $1,200 for both of us. We were looking into buying one-way tickets but turns out one-way tickets were more [...]
