“I had no idea what to expect but this has been the adventure of a lifetime and exceeded all expectations ...  I’ve had a great time, eaten gorgeous food and taken amazing photos.  I have met so many interesting people and made friends who I truly hope will be friends for life.  I will never forget Cunnamulla and all of the people who made me feel so welcome.  I will be leaving a piece of me here when I leave.”
