David’s Junky Warehouse

When Fairy Lisa first proposed to ask her friend Dave to host us in his warehouse, we imagined a huge warehouse full of tools and machinery, and us amidst the technology camping out. Upon staying with Lisa we find out that Dave turned an old Volkswagen service station into his home. It is meant to be a treasure for junk collectors, filled up to the top with thousands of LPs, antiques, and things that...[read more]

Fairy Lisa from Adelaide

The state of mind matters most in life The journey to Adelaide is marvelous. Alistar brings us to Auburn town (20 km south of Clare), where shadow, cookies, and bananas keep us happy in the midday heat. Soon we are off to Gawler (50 km north of Adelaide), right opposite a shopping mall. Huge traffic and oven baking temperatures make it tricky to catch a right, until a former hitchhiker brings us 2...[read more]

Raw Food in Perth

The very first days in Australia we stayed in Perth city center. Before coming to this country I have researched for raw food communities in the area. We thought it would be great to meat local raw food lovers. As always, the synchronicity in life works with the perfect timing: there was scheduled a raw food potluck in the Kings Park on Sunday – our second day in Australia. We prepared a salad...[read more]
