Download or read book Around Australia written by Elaine Schnelle and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2023-05-16 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After receiving an unsettling medical diagnosis, Elaine Schnelle, a 61-year-old divorced, retired grandma and psychic medium, decides that the only way she can achieve her dream of driving around Australia, is to do it now — and alone. Overcoming fears and self-doubt, she takes a leap of faith and embarks on the trip of a lifetime taking the reader along with her on her exciting adventure. This book provides a practical travel guide of how the author planned her trip — including deciding what vehicle she will drive, the plotting of her itinerary, a description of her travels, the fears and challenges on the way, the interesting people she met, as well as maps, photos, and road details so that the reader, if desired, can drive a similar trip. It also gives the reader who cannot do the trip, the opportunity to live and experience the journey vicariously through the eyes of the author. And for people, especially women who are like the author living on their own who have given up on their dream because they thought they could not do it by themselves, this book inspires and shows them how to do it. “Around Australia: One Woman, One Soul, One Dream” will also appeal to those who are looking for a spiritual memoir book, that shares insights on how to be in the present moment and interpret the signs from the Universe, so that they can live a guided life and on purpose. This book inspires people to say Yes to life, and Never give up on their dreams.

Download or read book Around Australia's Coastline written by Herman Odijk and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 844 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is said about people who travel, that they go all over the world, and then return and look more closely at their “own back yard” – their own country. That applied to us even though we had lived in many parts of NSW, Tasmania, ACT, Queensland – and Herman in PNG. Our Around Australia’s Coastline adventure included extra bonuses – destinations to Papua New Guinea, Lombok (Indonesia) and Norfolk Island all of which are considered our neighbours. We believe that cruising is the best way to see Australia as most capital and provincial cities are on the coastal fringe. They emerged from a Colonial past of mainly convict settlements that could only then be reached by sea – and which also made it easier to control such settlements.The inland was unknown and potentially hostile until our overland and seafaring explorers ventured further to rediscover that which the indigenous population had known for 40,000 years or more. European settlements then followed inland. And, of course there is the love Australians have for the coast and the beaches and want to live near these. Besides, cruising has additiional benefits. You only unpack once, travel in luxury and wait for the destinations to turn up! (Although we do consider each cruise ship to be a different destination in itself.) It gives you time to talk to others who have visited these areas before, time to listen to on-board presentations about each destination – and a few warnings. Time to learn new things and eventually better appreciate those new experiences. Why is there so little text? We thought it only necessary to identify places and other things, give a brief description of each place, as they are far between and each evolved extremely differently. For those who want to know more detail – there is always the Internet. And Herman’s 725+ photographs say it all! They show the beauty of places, reveal the unusual, that which depicts the unique “character of a place”, strange things, amusing things, things that the tourist brochures don’t usually depict, and those things that other people rush past and miss altogether. At each destination we took bus tours around the area and to specific destinations. We also did a lot of walking until this became more difficult, and then we used mobility scooters to great advantage – and yes, you can use them on-board ship and ride them into public buildings /areas, galleries, museums, acquariums etc. provided you have appropriate permission. (We have never been refused.) So, come with us and enjoy the photo-log of our experiences... Herman and Pamela Odijk P.S. Oh – and if you think we left our “cousins from across the ditch” New Zealanders out , well we covered them in our previous book.
