I’ve discovered a peaceful escape by taking the local bus to Bundaberg. The 30-minute ride passes through beautiful farmlands, with vibrant fields and expansive blue skies. The daily bus pass is incredibly cheap, around $1 AUD. On the early morning school run, I enjoy watching the energetic children. The midday bus is a social hub for retirees, who greet each other warmly.
We’re looking forward to exploring Australia properly once the engine is fixed. We have a multiple-entry visa that allows stays of up to three months per visit, and with autumn just starting, we’re excited to make some plans.
