RE: TRAVEL UPDATE | It Pays to have Plans But Don’t Forget to Enjoy the Spontaneity | Thank You for the Birthday Love. 🧡

That's too bad about the cost of seeing nature there... That was one of my favorite things about my Australia trip was just hiking around the blue mountains for days and hitchhiking across Tasmania seeing where fate would take me. There's something so special and exciting about uncertainty :) I hope you have a good time in Indonesia!

Yeah I guess because back home I’m so use to being able to do things outdoors for free even visiting some of our heritage sites it makes me feel reluctant to pay a lot of money for a similar sort of experience here. But it’s alright, it doesn’t mean I won’t try and source fun and cheap things that work for me. Also I didn’t know you went to Australia. That’s super cool. I’ve never been to the blue mountains but I know it’s a beautiful spot. Thanks for the birthday love Jeff. 💗

Of course bud! You're welcome :) Yeah, I was in Melbourne for like 3 weeks and I worked at a passion-fruit nursery there. Then I was in the Sydney area for 3 weeks and Tasmania for 8 days. It was all amazing! We have these 5 national parks here in Utah that people come from around the world to see, so you have to get a permit to enter them and another permit to camp or raft the rivers and stuff like that. They use the money to maintain everything and keep them beautiful, but the permits are limited so certain times of year they are sold out and you can't go. In some cases there's like a several-year waiting list!

Passionfruit nursery? That sounds interesting haha. Seems you had some good time to visit a very nice spots. I’d love to get to Tassie some time to do some hiking and also checking out Western Australia because the coastline is magical! Funny how when things are so close to home you don’t put them as priorities to visit.
Also the states has some magical landscapes. I loved the months I travelled through California, such diversity in one place and it was relatively easy to explore for free especially when you went to national forest.

It's really true! There's so much in Utah that people travel from far and wide to see, and its been like an hour or two away my whole life, but I've never gone XD I've never even properly gone to the Grand Canyon! I've driven right passed it like 50 times...
I love California, and you're not kidding about the diversity! There's this old map of filming locations for shooting scenes that are supposed to be across the world.
Found one of them:
