    Outback Day 1

    February 11, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 36 °C

    After quite busy weeks for us, we took four days off to go on a new adventure and have a little (& well needed) break from hospitality .
    So, we decided to go to the famous middle of Australia, the outback. Ready to take off we were sitting in the plane to Sydney to go from there to the Ayers Rock Airport. But yeah, you know I always have soooo much luck with flights or the gap year in general. Well, we couldn’t start because of a technical problem. At the end, we had to change the plane and fortunately our connecting flight was waiting for us 😅 after 3 1/2 hours from Sydney we arrived at the probably tiniest airport I have ever seen. There, our tour guide Andy collected us and brought us to the camp ground, had lunch and went to the Uluru afterwards. Even though, it was quite hot (around 45 degrees each day) and we were surrounded by 300 flies each, I can say that this place is stunning and breathtaking. We were walking a bit around the huge mountain and headed back to the camping ground for dinner, took our definitely needed shower (the water was 20 degrees 😂🙄) and got ready to sleep in swags (like a big sleeping bag with a mattress) underneath the Milky Way. I am so glad to be able to experience something like that. ❤️Read more
