Day 42: Port Macquarie to Byron Bay
March 9, 2023 — It’s always a bit of a weird day when you have to get up and pack to be out of a hostel by ten a.m. but your bus doesn’t leave to head to your next destination until midday or later. I woke up in the morning and gathered my stuff together,…

Day 41: Port Macquarie, Australia
March 8, 2023 — Today was a very quiet day. After waking up in the morning to a questionable-looking sky, I had a bit of breakfast and got dressed. Since it wasn’t raining at that moment, I figured it was as good a time as any to head into town and do some shopping. We’d…

Day 36: Newcastle, Australia
March 3, 2023 — I had a very slow morning working on the blog and other administrative stuff to do with my trip. I even did some morning yoga! That was the first time I’d managed to find a good spot for yoga since I left on my trip. It felt so good to be…

Day 35: Newcastle, Australia
March 2, 2023 — I was up early the following morning and headed to the grocery store at just after 8:00am.

Day 34: Hobart to Sydney to Newcastle
March 1, 2023 — A new month, a new adventure! This day officially marked five weeks away from home and also marked my return to the mainland to continue my journey up the east coast of Australia. I had a fantastic time under down under and in Melbourne and Sydney but I was super excited…

Day 33: Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
February 28, 2023 — I finished off February with a bit of a lazy day. I woke up at a decent hour but laid in bed and read until after ten a.m. When I’d finished my book, I rolled out of bed and got dressed, then walked out the door for a small walk and…
