Pearl – Thanks very much :-) I’m sure if you put your mind to it, you’d be able to verbalise many things you’ve learnt from being in Rome

I would love to take a year and just travel. I just finished writing about living in Rome since it’s been a year since I stepped off the plane and into Italian life. Quality life lessons in this post, ones that I couldn’t verbalize for the life of me.

I usually end up driving on gravel road on my trips as a lot of nice places are not accessible on bitumen. Like Mungo National Park in NSW. You should visit it if haven’t done it yet.

The whole place has an asphalt surface where ever you will want to go lapping the place for the usual attractions.

unsealed roads are mainly for things like driving to a winery or beach that isn’t popular (which doesn’t make it bad by the way).

Plus if you take it through a car wash how are they going to tell it’s been on an unsealed road? ;-)

For me biggest concern with rentals – they don’t allow to drive on unsealed roads. IT is so hard to do in Australian outback.

I haven’t sold it yet, I know it’s the biggest hassle of buying rather than renting, but then I’m not paying $2-3k to rent for a few weeks so make up for that in savings on renting.

I hope you sold your “Mystery Machine” already. I was thinking – to buy or rent campervan for my trip around Australia and decided to rent for 6-7 weeks. It makes less hustle.
