Dataran Nullarbor

Panduan Perjalanan

Many believe the Nullarbor desert's name derives from an aboriginal word. In fact, it is a modification of the latin meaning of 'no trees'. This could not be more appropriate! The stretch between Perth and Adelaide, & the Nullarbor in between, was...empty, straight and well...uneventful to say the least. We spent three days just driving, stopping for lunch, dinner and sleeping. We had to fill up the car with petrol whenever we had a chance - as there are incredibly long roads where you have no possibility to fuel up. Still nowadays you have people getting lost in the outback as it can take days until you see another person - especially if you head north towards the Northern Territory. As a rule of thumb: don't leave the vehicle ever. Too many have attempted to do this just to disappear in the wild only to be found dead. Australia is known for deadly things in general actually...The most poisonous & dangerous animals are in your vicinity - spiders, snakes, jellyfish...you name it. But, so far we have encountered none and to be honest, some Australians we spoke to, have never seen a redback in their lives... So no need to worry. ;) it's not as a scary place as you might believe... For now, let's get this stretch of uninhabited land behind us. It will feel weird to be back in civilization.... #alifefullofserendipity #serendipitytess #travel #traveling #travelblog #travelstoke #travelingram #australia #nullarbor #desert #road #adventure #outback #traveladvice #troveon

Ahhh the famous Australian roadsigns :) We've spotted Kangaroos & Wallabies, Wombats, Emus, Kookaburras and a hitchhiking Koala. Yep. The big little fella was sat next to the road completely unfazed by the cars staring at us - he really looked as if he was about to ask us to stop to catch a ride. :) Lots & lots of driving ahead - the Nullarbor desert is a tough one. Looong roads that look the same for endless of hours. Have a lovely week-end everyone :) #alifefullofserendipity #serendipitytess #travel #traveling #travelblog #travelingram #australia #outback #aussieroadsigns #roadsign #road #adventure #camping #nullarbor #desert #photo #photooftheday #troveon
Thanks to the awesome WikiCamps community (an app where a huge community of Campers drop pins on an interactive map to capture (free) camp spots all over Australia, UK and the US), we got to camp on pretty wicked spots. Such as this one: an old car scrapyard that is no longer used. Dusk was approaching quickly, the first kangaroos were hopping alongside us - another day of driving in the outback came to an end. These days were beautifully simplistic. Drive, Eat, Sleep - repeat. And you know what? It's awesome to live by essentialism. A highlight was when we managed to find a hot shower along the way (which did not happen for three days...thank goodness for baby wipes, soap & water). Another highlight was to sit under the stars next to a campfire. And drink wine. And howl at the moon. And wake up seeing 50 kangaroos 'boing boing' past you. And have no worries apart from finding a petrol station and water. And a spot to sleep to repeat the whole thing all over again. How much stuff do you own that you never use and which clogs ip too much of your time & attention? When was the last time you felt blissfully happy to have a hot shower? When have you last felt blissfully happy with what is essential in life? Food, Water, Sleep & most importantly: Love! What more do you need? Remind yourself of those little things...they occupy a big space in our lives but we often forget about it and attribute importance to unnecessary 'stuff'. Agree? #alifefullofserendipity #serendipitytess #travel #traveling #travelblog #inspiration #essentialism #present #moment #photooftheday #photo #life #australia #wikicamp #outback #camping #happy #happiness #adventure #roadtrip
There truly isnt a sunset that can compare to a Nullarbor sunset. The whole sky was alight with colour. #australia #travel #nullarbor The best road trip is a cross country road trip!
