Welcome! We are Rosemary, Stuart and E.J. Follow us as we travel around Australia exploring, learning and growing. We are 'vitalistic' travelers, and hopefully as our Journey unfolds we will learn to explain what that means!

We are interested in holistic health, organic farming practices, sustainable living, conscious parenting, natural learning and travel among other things so within this blog you will find articles, stories and links that reflect these interests.

Enjoy!

A Big Catch Up!

It's been a long time coming (2 months since our last post) and there are SO many adventures to share with you!

After our wonderful stay in Grasstree Beach and lovely couple of days with January, Stu, EJ and I headed north to Townsville. Our days were full of family, fun and food :)





Somewhat serendipitously while we were in T'ville, we ran into Cyndi O'Meara (nutrionist and health advocate extraordinaire - her website) at the local organic store and had a great chat. She was doing a health talk along with a thermomix presentation the next night, and funnily enough hadn't we just been umming and aahing about whether or not to get "the Greatest Kitchen Appliance ever". So the universe lined that one up beautifully and we are now the very very happy owners of a thermomix (TM). I am really looking forward to sharing some of our creations. It truly makes eating nutriously SO easy.
(While I've been writing this, I'm baking bread that I milled the flour for myself. it took about three minutes to knead the dough in the TM and the heavenly smell of scrummy bread baking away in the oven is filling my nostrils.)


After a great catchup with family, we headed up to Jullaten for our first wwoof. Woohoo!! It was a fantastic experience.
I know Stu has a post in the works about all of our adventures there so I'll leave those stories up to him.




















 Now we are in Atherton, and we are loving discovering the incredible tablelands.




















As it's well past my bedtime, I'll let the photos do the talking for the moment. :)


More updates soon.

Birthdays

It just so happens that EJ and I were born a day apart, give or take almost thirty years :)
We've had a really wonderful couple of days celebrating our birthday's.
There is so much to reflect on, many things that I am incredibly grateful for. At this moment, I am aware of how incredibly blessed I am to share my daily life with two such amazing men.

Today we sung Happy Birthday alot, talked on skype and the phone to our family and friends, opened presents, went for a late afternoon play on the beach, and blew out our candle. More than once :)


I love to run!
