October 19th - Hitting the Road in New South Wales #Vanlife
Sorry for the blackout these past few weeks, but rest assured we've been putting our time to good use! We have spent the past two and a half weeks here in Sydney, Australia, hosted by Shana, Stephen, their daughter Asha, and Stephen's father Barry (Thanks a million!). We have done a bit of sight seeing in this beautiful city, but mostly our time has been spent on preparing for the next leg of our journey. After a drawn out, stressful, and at times discouraging search, we zeroed in on the van for us, and then spent the better part of two weeks making it our home. But we will get to that in a bit. Our last week in Nepal was spent mostly in the city of Pokhara. Though it is the second largest city in Nepal, Pokhara is known for its laid back atmosphere. Many trekkers come to Pokhara before heading off to do the Annapurna circuit, another popular Himalayan trek. Feeling overwhelmed by the bustle of Kathmandu, it sounded perfect for us. We got on the bus early morning on Wednes...
