From Harrington to Townsville via All of Australia... with 2 Kids, a vintage 1974 Viscount Royal Caravan & A lot of guts!
We have been living here in Harrington for a few months after moving from Townsville in 2010... Before Phil and I (Nic) met, we had both grown up on the NSW Central Coast (Gosford and it's regions). Neither of us had known one another growing up, and both of us had moved away and travelled extensively... but on that chance evening when we met in 2002, we quickly found we had many mutual friends, a shared interest in the Simpsons, a love of adventure and free spirited natures.
Long story short, we met, had our children, moved away, got married, were living "The Dream" - 2 perfect kids (yes, a boy and a girl), 2 dogs, a new 4 bedroom house in Paradise, a brand new luxury SUV, iPhones, iPods, Wiis, DSis, laptops (four of them) a 42 inch flat screen, private school educations and the best daycare money could buy, Thai twice a week... you get the idea.
Until everything went Pear-shaped. We had moved from Townsville to have a new life in Harrington/Taree... but again, Fate intervened... we were NOT meant to settle down... yet...
The diagnosis of an illness in the family prompted us to look at things from a new perspective.
