A tortoise came to visit today.
Quince blossoms in our garden.
My blog post about our time in Malta. www.adventuroushermit.com
What an amazing renovation project this would be.
Blessing at the bus stop
It’s ‘holy week’ here in Malta - a VERY catholic country. The usual church bells are replaced by a wooden instrument called the ċuqlajta that makes a strange constant clacking sound. It’s a custom from the Middle Ages and supposed to be a sad sound to do with Jesus having a very bad week. I find it kind of trance-inducing but it needs more bass.

About me

I have always been a wanderer, a traveller, a seeker-of-adventures.

Growing up on a farm outside the small, pretty village of Urbenville at the edge of the Border Ranges, Northern Rivers NSW Australia, I spent my childhood poring over atlases and dreaming of faraway places.

When I finished school I worked for a few months, saved some money and set off travelling to Europe – and I never really stopped. The longest I stayed in one place between Urbenville and the age of 40 was 3 years.

Somehow, in the middle of life I got stuck. The longer I stayed still, the harder it was to move. I got so comfortable that I put down roots and turned into a hermit.

So, in the spirit of shaking things up, my partner JH and I are off on adventures outside the hermit-hole. This blog is about the journey.
