Unplugged: How NOT to be an armchair observer after retirement

By GYPSY GINA

Travelling off the beaten track. Alone? Not to mention being on the downward side of sixty and female to boot! No bloody way! Far too daunting and anyway how the hell would you finance such an outlandishly crazy idea? And how would you do it?And there it was. The seed. Firmly planted and already taking root.Five short years ago, I uprooted my whole existence and jumped feet-first into the great unknown, or whatever awaited me in the vastness of Australia. I drove 20,000 km over a period of eight months leaving Brisbane in August 2019 and returning in March 2020.Sharing this wonderful journey with you, the reader, has also served as a valuable lesson to me as I sat and filled the pages of this book and literally watched myself grow. It has been a journey where I overcame all doubts and fears, gained great friendships, had amazing adventures and learned valuable life lessons.So many precious memories; - Unplugged in more ways than one, travelling solo on my 'big lap' around Australia, now wiser and ultimately grateful for having taken the plunge.Are you ready to start a new chapter regardless of your age? Take a leaf out of my book and be inspired.
