Today is World Mental Health day and I have been gifted a day off, so has the whole company. I don’t think the company realised how much I needed this day off, but let’s just say it was welcomed! Life here in Sydney is good. The kids just had two weeks off and term 4

“Rocky Top you’ll always be home sweet home to me” This is Tennessee to me. When I listen to this song it puts me right back in my happy place Tennessee. Yes, it does flow better when sung out loud by The Osborne Brothers, Dolly P – or me, than when just read silently right
After our visa-run to Singapore, we flew to Jakarta, and thereby back to Indonesia. Jakarta is a gigantic city, and the world’s second largest urban area (after Tokyo) with more than 30 million people in its greater area. Coming straight from Singapore, we didn’t really crave big city life, but we did spend a few
Singapore was a spontaneous part of our moving-to-australia-pre-travel-trip. We had originally planned to stay 60 days in Indonesia, but because of a rather complicated visa extension process on Bali, we decided to make life easier (and a lot more fun than waiting in line at an immigration office), and jump on a plane to Singapore.

After a few pretty hectic weeks we left Denmark and flew to Bangkok on a one-way ticket. All of our belongings are stored back in Denmark, and we now only have what we can carry (well, maybe a liiiiittle bit more…). The night before we left, we booked a hotel in Bangkok – we had
We left Sydney with a great feeling that Australia was going to be good to us, and that just continued. Northern Queensland was completely different than what we had seen in Sydney and the Blue Mountains. But it was just as much Australia. Our first stop was Magnetic Island. We had debated a lot whether
From Northern Queensland and the rainforest we flew to Darwin. Here it was hot. Really hot. Like 40°C! And since we were there early October it was not even summer yet! I have tried to figure out how to describe the heat. And one day it hit me – it felt like you have just
Oh, what a welcoming feeling of being in a big city. Sydney was just perfect! After spending 1,5 months on Pacific islands Sydney was exactly what we needed. We walked and walked through the streets of the city and our legs were hurting every night (…probably more because we did not walk much on the
