Has your blog taken you in directions you never anticipated?
I began my blog to share photos and our new Australian life with family and friends back in the UK.
New friendships developed in the virtual blog world and in reality.
Through fellow Tasmanian blogger, Claudette at to search and to find I got the volunteer role, which I have thoroughly enjoyed for the past three months.
Now that volunteer role has evolved into a six month paid contract.
My blog has taken me on an unexpected journey from gap year to employment.
But first ……. a week’s holiday and trip along the Great Ocean Road.
That’s so awesome Ruth. I bet you never imagined that when you started your blog, fantastic! Enjoy the Great Ocean Road, it’s such an epic trip. :0

Congratulations Ruth. I know life can take some interesting twists and turns.
I have travelled the Great Ocean Road from Melbourne on a day trip. I really enjoyed it. I like flying in helicopters. I took the trip over the 12 Apostles. The coastline is magnificent. Enjoy. Good luck with your new job.
Love Den

Thanks Gerrie. Blogging is certainly a bigger thing than just posting words of photos online.
