House Dweller Dreaming of The Open Road!


Hey forum!  I live in far north Qld in the small township of Cooktown.  I hope to one day be a grey nomad.  I am often researching and dreaming on the net and love reading of others adventures on the open road! For now I will remain housebound as a carer for mum who had a stroke and who will be 80 in January. 

We are on 3 acres of rainforest just 3 mins from PO.  If anyone who is self sufficient with their own RV or caravan wanted to drop in and stay on our block and do a little gardening we'd welcome you for a visit.  Winter or mid-year is the best time to travel up north.

Welcome Faye, enjoy here and out in the playground no matter how short any trips may be. You will join all the other travellers sooner than soon so no problems. You are doing a great thing caring for your mum so good on you.

Welcome from us too. Keep dreaming - dreams often come true. And in the meantime keep well as you look after your mum.
