So, we have had it with Australia. We honestly tried our best but our best was never good enough so we’re off. We’ve had it with the Melbourne road trains and the rubbish weather. While it’s rather nice to live in a country where you get a day off for the Queen’s birthday, a horse race and a football match (seriously!) it’s not good enough.
So this year we both reached a half century and despite trying very, very hard to make a go of it in Australia we have admitted defeat and decided it’s about time we started to have a retirement plan.
So we’re selling the house (but that’s not going so well – one sale has fallen through already but we are practising patience).
We are looking at spending 60 days in Sulawesi and the Maluku Islands (the Spice Islands). We have a list of places we want to go and know that 60 days won’t be enough but that’s a problem we shall deal with later.
