Well we have taken the plunge and dived right in. Excuse the pun, or don’t, it is up to you. Our sea-change has finally taken place and we are slowly finding our stroke. No floundering has occurred as yet and we are hopeful it won’t occur at all…. but we never say never here at NorrisContinue reading “sea-change, life-change and new beginnings”

Baby, things change
It has been quiet on the Norris Around Australia.com front of late. As I type this morning I am surrounded by not a lot. There is furniture missing, piles of mess and overflowing boxes. There is a move in the pipeline and it is coming up quickly but slowly. We are excited beyond belief! However,Continue reading “Baby, things change”
the best thing about camping in winter
The humble camp-fire. A place to gather with fellow travellers. A place to cook the most delicious winter meals. A place to heat the billy for a nice cup of tea. A place to soak in the warmth of the coals. A place to toast a marshmallow or two. Bring on 2016 winter camping. WhereContinue reading “the best thing about camping in winter”

Oh my how we LOVE the Tweed. It has everything. The coast, the river, the hinterland and oh my the food, the glorious food. The Tweed region is a foodie hub.

Life is short, you cannot afford to get stuck
We all know it. We all forget it. We all need to remember it. Life is short. Our life is but a fleeting spec in the universe. Yet we all get caught up in the drama of what is going on around us and forget to live from within. I believe this time we haveContinue reading “Life is short, you cannot afford to get stuck”

inland to the coast
We recently spent some time in Northern NSW. To us this really one of the most naturally beautiful parts of Australia. From the hinterland of rolling green hills, to the big rivers of the northern tablelands to the quiet pristine beaches of the coast there is a whole lot to love. If money grew onContinue reading “inland to the coast”

Endings
As our long summer break comes to an end it makes us realise how lucky we are. We have spent the last few weeks tooing and froing between vastly different yet beautiful locations. The house boat down the Murray was a long awaited tick off the bucket list. What an enjoyable and relaxing way to holiday.Continue reading “Endings”
The Mighty Murray
We have both always loved the Murray River and have returned frequently throughout our travels. It provides so many perfect free camping opportunities all along its beautiful banks in NSW, Victoria and South Australia. Every time we camp along the banks of the Murray we would watch the house-boats float past our campsite and say “OneContinue reading “The Mighty Murray”
