"I'm going next week, come with me!"
In both cases I figured the person would actually benefit from it. Away from home for about a week, out of contact for good chunks of it, seeing the size and scope of what's out there... Being reminded that there are different, more rewarding, and often more interesting ways to live. You don't have to want to do them, but knowing they exist changes your perspective. To have the freedom to think about what's going on in your life without all the niggling reminders, distractions and doubts that try to convince you that you really can't leave that job and/or life you hate.
Everyone one should do a long slow trip to somewhere in Australia. It opens your mind in interesting new directions if you let it. Though not everybody should do it with me. Some wouldn't cope with me, some I would kill before we got halfway across.
So now, because it's much in my mind (Three days! Eeep!) I present the "Do the Nullabor with Danny" pole!
No-one can see who answered, and comments are screened unless they have a "yes" at the end... For no other reason than force of habit :)
I ask you to do a Nullarbor trip with me. It will be 8-10 days, mostly camping. Assuming you have no other commitments or limitations, what do you say?
Doing the trip in the Belwood...
It's late, it's pouring with rain and blowing a gale, we need to pull over for the night, but there it's obviously going to be impossible to set up the tent. There's the mattress on the back seat, but it means we'll be spooned all night...
So, while in the car...
We get to the Nullarbor. I want to stop the car to jump around like a naked loon. What do you do?
Still on the Nullarbor, I ask if you want to jump around and/or pose for naked photo too...
Snakes... The lolly kind...
Hitch-hikers?
Do you think you're someone I would want to travel with?
Why?
Your ideal travelling companion will be able to talk about Doctor Who how much?
