We have new neighbours. The couple on our right are from NSW and have stayed here in Broome fifteen times, I think they like it. And they’ve just sold their house to go on the road permanently. On our left is a couple from South Australia. He’s a retired maintenance man and she was a house mother in a boarding school. They do short term postings at caravan parks and farms, they were even rat catchers on a pig farm. They’re on their way to take up a posting at a cattle station that is run by the Indigenous Land Council, where young people are trained in station work. She’ll be the cook starting at 4:30 each morning. She later texts me to say that it is worth it for the sunrises alone.

That is the difficult part. But as one popular motor home sticker says “Adventure before dementia”.
