And just like that I’ve completed my first Lap, 5 states and 1 Territory in 127 days, 17,419k’s and I’ve landed back in Margaret River.
What a ride………
An epic journey…….
lots of amazing memories, laughs, friendships, familyships, people that have shared their time, houses, driveways, power, wisdom, love, food and lives with me, those that have stayed in touch and checked in, (especially when I went social media quiet) all of those that have loved me from a far and those excited for me to come home , for how ever long and where ever that maybe….. I appreciate your love and kindness.
It wasn’t always easy sailing……
but I sailed ❤️
I learnt how to wire, renovate, charge batteries, switch over gas exchanges, remodel, fix, ditch and screw every nook and cranny so by the time I done my last day, the van pretty much had no squeaks , creaks or rattles. Me and my roadie Brods set a goal to see if we could Nullabor in a day and yep we did “Legends “
1200k’s , 14.5 hrs , Drove 26hrs in 2 days to make it back to Sharn to spend the last part of the 1st day of 2026 with her 😘
Another day I’ll give more of a story for now I was wanted to let you know we arrived safely all fingers and toes in tack, Im still of sound mind that wasn’t lost 🤣 oh and my heart expanded and grew bigger ❤️ ######xx

life’s been a bit busy, 🙀
I’ll do up a better post and other photos of my travels but for Now

Where am I and who’s joined me on the Rd………
Love that Brodin’s on my trip now and gets to come and do one of my life bucket lists…..
Those that know me know how much I loved today.

Something I’ve heard a lot over my life after I’ve made a huge decision is
“Yeah but you’re lucky”.
It doesn’t feel like luck, when I’ve just come out of , the emotional trenches of self doubt, fear, worry.
I’ve learnt it’s more to do with choices than luck……. Making the choice to have faith, go with the deep sense of knowing, listening to my self over fighting with a hard decision, the biggest is trusting in self going with the deeper sense of knowing that what ever I decide, has been a choice I’ve made at the time that needed to happen to become a better version of me, better than the day, week or year before.
Having an amazing support and love of my people behind me also helps ❤️
And also always checking in with your mindset

You can’t undo the scars ……..

Today as I made my way through the bustling traffic of Brisbane, (in waiting, counting down the hours till my adult babies arrive. )
I sat at a set of lights and watched as a Dad yelled at his really distressed son.
I couldn’t judge the Dad as I don’t know in what context the discussion was coming from…… had the boy done something so big that warranted that level of yelling and was the boy crying in disappointment and or understanding……
Or was this one of those moments
that leave scars, a moment where it didnt warrent that level of heart brake, but has etched in this young lad and becomes one of his trigger’s.

Those moments as parents we cant take back, the times where our lives get so chaotic , times when we spill over, get triggered by something that wont be remembered by us, but will leave a scar on them….

The hardest job Ive ever taken on was that of Motherhood, not ever knowing wheather the job youre doing is good enough, if you could do more, if you should have done more,
Loving something more than any words could express, more than life itself,

Praying for a sleep in, 5mins to yourself, half a bed to sleep on, a clean house, a quiet house. Untill one day you get all of that and its in the noise that you miss their laughter, or the mess you miss their presence, in the having time to yourself that you find yourself waiting for them to turn up, to share your space, your kitchen, your couch, your time, because without them time stands still……….
Yes we’ll all leave scars on one another, ones we cant undo, its not about what has been said, its about what can be said, what should be said and what shouldnt, its about clearly communicating and taking ownership of self, but most of all its just about love, real love, tough love, compassionate love, unconditional, be there for them love, so they know how to be there for you. Sharnee Jade Rose & Brodin Gemming you are f**ken amazing humans, and even better souls
❤️🥰

WA.. You have given me so many Smiles and Joys, friendships, loves, heart brakes, growth and forever lasting Stories 🤣 as long as I can remember them all.
My mth of travelling has taught me some incredible things

😊 I’m not pre or menopausal, crazy or lost my mind. I took the leap of faith just as my soul intended, to seek, travel and spend time falling completely in love with myself.

🤯 LIFE is precious, and it won’t last forever.
And it’s exactly mine to make of it the way I want.
🫣on the days that I’ve questioned not being in the daily structures, beliefs about houses and solid foundations, society’s daily norms, I am reminded that I am not less than, I’m contributing to life in different ways, being me in the world , out meeting people even if it’s for a fleeting moment or days, I’m exactly where I’m meant to be otherwise I wouldn’t be.

🙀 That even after 4,519K’s travelled, my dog has not got used to the bangs and clunks the van makes over bumps and still hates travelling. So today I’ll give him a balance, to release some of that said stress.

🤪 That you don’t need to throw out all of your food, honey, and drive back 38k’s to WA border through fear of not stopping because you thought there was a check point on NT side and there wasn’t and had convinced yourself that you needed to go back because you’ll get a fine.
What I did get was laughed at 🤪
also I got to give them border controllers an absolute giggle, for my efforts and said humour, so winning.
( so important info ……, check point is only entering WA 😂. )
But I did make use of my $25 jar of honey before leaving it in WA as my natural face mask.

🚚 As I travelled through the different states I noticed, the difference in energy, NT is Raw , but also interesting because it kinda feels like it’s sacred and that the rds shouldn’t be here, or maybe I’m to far from the ocean. I don’t know its history but from the border to North side of Larrimah , I whispered I’m only passing through please give me safe passage and it did.
👋Stop in at Larrimah if you can, its name means Meeting place, and its history represents that.

Be Safe, Love yourself and your moments like they’re your last loves.

Keep safe, be love, know you’re loved, it’s the journey not the destination

Another day of lifes little Ironies….
Today marks the day I gave myself 13yrs ago to be the day I remind myself to celebtate me.

Today is my 13 year anniversary ❤️ of self discovery, self love, and gratitude. Because life got real hard for awhile 13yrs ago.
It was turned upside down and inside out. One of those times in life when its hard to breath, where all you can do is say “f**k it 🤯”

I really didnt know what I was going to do, where I was going, or how the hell I was gonna sort that s**t show out, but I prayed through it, sometimes winged it, but survived it, as we always do, and in doing so I’ve managed to stumble upon some of the best moments and people of my life. 👌

Not all days have been Sunshines and Rainbows, because life still happens, but it’s different, that day was a day that was going to build a resilience in me I never knew I didnt have.
🫣It marked a point in my time line in my psyche, that would forever change the way I would view the world and people and things, a moment in time, I couldnt un-see, or un-feel what I had, but in such away a part of me had died, but I was also alive for the first time.

❤️ I've loved and lost people along the way, some by my chioce, some by theirs and some through passing.
This I know to be true, "Life is far to short to waste moments on things that dont matter, people that don't matter, and those you dont matter to, celebrate your wins. Be bold, be brave, be you, enjoy going out to meet the people that are still waiting to fall in love with you, but most importantly, enjoy falling in love with yourself ❤️

I survived😂 breathing worked a treat, It was incredible

08/09/2025

From Coronation Beach to Woomeral Station, along the coast that has no coast🫣
, over the Rivers that have no water🫠 and the creeks that have no creek.
🤯 Where caravans and campers cue in lines of 5 at each bowzer
🤪because theres no other rd house or services for 250k,
Where the birds of prey stand as high as my hips, 🧎‍♀️and goats run free for miles and miles.
It seems as tho I’m the only one heading North as the convoys seem to be heading south, I find myself smiling from ear to ear when I get two waves 👋👋from both the driver and the passenger ,
🤌🏻 my wrist tires as I wave to more than I get back, but it’s all in fun, 😂
😋 as I find myself playing a game on my own of how many waves 🤔 will I get, is it mostly troopies, caravaners, campervaners, truckers, and then realise it’s just a person to person thing they either do or don’t. 🫤

After the 4th Road Train 🚚🚚🚚🚚🚚🚚passing me I realised like my 5yr old self crossing a bridge, I held my breath for dear life and realised, I must have taken in more of those scare me stories that people like to tell of horror stories they’ve heard of Campervan being blown off the rd by rd trains 🤣 not sure how many days and trucks I’ve held my breath for but, once I was Aware I started breathing and regulating that poor Nervous system😤🙀

I wish I could share with you what my eyes actually see, the wonders the beauty the barren lands, the wild life, all the magic and wonder. How the the landscape changes and the colours blend and weave from area to area.
