Goodbye Adelaide *lower lip pout*

We'll I've always believed if you're patient, you will get what you want. So I stayed here in Adelaide with a dream in my head to drive to Darwin through the center of the country and make a heaps of stops along the way to see the sights. I have my previous WWOOFing host, Todd, to thank for this dream, as it was his suggestion that turned me on to it.

So I patiently made a life for myself here in Glenelg, as you can see in my previous post, and settle in for the wait.

Things often seem like fate when you're traveling, it's quite a beautiful feeling and has really changed the way that I look at life.

So fate made me start looking for the perfect ride on gumtree right about when the perfect advertisement popped up.

Me and four others from various countries are headed off, hopefully Monday, to do exactly what I had been waiting for: Renting a FWD and traveling up the middle to see the sights and I'm excited. I'm trying not to be too excited because I don't want to have too high of expectations, but, oh hell I'm pretty excited.

Upon making my plans to leave, I've realized how attached I'm come to Glenelg, so settled in that I forgot to pay for my hostel because I just felt like I lived there. Me and Rich, the man I had to pay, had a bit of a laugh about it.

I have so many beautiful people around me that I had share laughs, tears, ideas, and moments of silence with.

I've learned quite a valuable lesson that I hope to carry along with me: No matter where you are in the world, you are not alone.

Love to all my readers,
Sarah Rose

  1. What a descriptive writer you've become. I'm enjoying your blogs as if I'm reading your first travel book. Hmmmm good idea? I love how open and accepting you are of what's around you. Kinda like doing improv! School's out and I'm enjoying being on break. Love & Kisses - Peggy

  2. Your posts always add sunshine to my day and doing little errands like grocery shopping or laundry, I want to have Rosie adventures too! And they become mini adventures: making new friends, trying new things, singing aloud (jealous, I want to join a singing group). You are not alone. Love you and keep writing, I will always listen.
