Preface

Pristine beaches with barely a footprint, rugged mountains, and big skies. crafted by nature.

Secluded beaches and clear blue waters

One could rightly assume that living on Flinders Island is akin to living in paradise, with its stunning landscapes, pristine beaches, temperate climate, and small population.

Surrounded by sea and sequestered among tall timbers, home is an escape from all that ails the world. Wallabies, wombats, and the occasional echidna remind us that we are but temporary custodians of the land we inhabit, and while here, it’s contingent upon us to do everything we can to preserve, protect, and not take for granted.

So, why leave this paradise?

Because occasionally there’s a need to validate such grand notions by seeking new perspectives.

All journeys are voyages of discovery and it doesn’t matter if it’s all been done before, because a journey is also about self-discovery and perspective. An opportunity for one to take stock of one’s own narrative, knowing that paradise isn’t going anywhere, as it will always be home.

This is one such journey.
