The definition I think of for escape is “to get away”. To leave your day-to-day life, in your safe and comfortable harbour, and set sail for places unknown.
So this is my interpretation of this weeks photo challenge. Click here to see how other bloggers escape
In 2010 that opportunity came when we bought Matilda, our ticket to freedom, our licence to escape and go where ever the wind would blow us.
Matilda is our home, our transport and our ticket to adventure. We have meandered around Australia for 3 years now. Spending short spells back home then off again. My gypsy soul loves this lifestyle. The people we meet, the beautiful and very varied scenery, the endless photo opportunities. Life never gets boring.
The many sunsets are perfect endings to the day spent discovering this amazing country I call home, Australia.
We are so lucky to be able to travel in safety and with freedom in this land. It is such a huge and diverse country that we will never run out of places to explore.
Sigh i wish i could do this. Some day!

We would love to have you along but you would have to sleep in a tent, inside just fits the 2 of us.
