AirBnBirthday Weekend in Bendigo

Sheltering from the storms in Victoria had its advantages, especially because it was also the weekend of Claudia’s birthday!

Fleeing the Floods

The heaviest rainfall since 1992 is hardly a good time to go camping, even for Belgians, who are used to bad weather. It didn’t seem like a smart idea to us to keep camping beside a river that might flood at any time, so we packed up our gear and headed to a dryer part…

Blogging Down Under: Pussy Edition

Arriving in the South after driving from tropical Darwin to the red center desert and than to the Barossa valley was quite a shock for me. It was a multi-day trip, as you all could read. I tried to stay as long as possible in the desert, but with some relatives and friends being worried…

Termite Mounds Part 2: Dressing up!

When you drive in the NT, you see a lot of termite mounds dressed up. Sometimes it even looks like there is someone standing in the bush, but don’t be mistaken: it’s just a dressed up termite mound! Obviously we HAD to do that as well! So after Tom’s AWESOME birthday party yesterday (we were…
