This is why I bought a bus pass | Brisbane | Vlog 96 and 97
The 45-day bus pass sometimes limits my freedom, but it’s worth it. It kinda made sure I had my travel plans sorted. I left the remoteness of K’gari (Fraser Island), returned to Noosa, spent a night at the hostel, then simply waited for the bus to take me to the busy city of Brisbane. I didn’t have to worry about anything except being on time.It was an excellent decision that made life incredibly easy.
It’s even better since I’m travelling in the opposite direction than most travellers. My bus is always empty. The travellers that go north have to make their bookings ahead as those buses are much busier. There are always spots available, how convenient. How not being organised sometimes works in your favour, the flexibility is wonderful—I can wake up and change my plans on a whim.
Welcome to Brisbane:
It’s my first two days in Brisbane, and after travelling for over three months, I found a rhythm that works for me. I did my almost traditional tour now, wandering and exploring without a real plan and going everywhere and nowhere in the city centre. It’s funny because it makes me feel organised in this everyday lifestyle. The first days are walking around and discovering! A park here, botanical gardens there, a shopping mall afterwards. What a great life! The days after, I plan my visits more carefully so I don’t feel later like I’ve wasted time.
My travels in Queensland are ending, and soon I’ll be going to New South Wales. I have yet to plan out much, but I’m excited to make my way to Sydney now!
It’s also almost the end of my Australian travels, and I’ve decided not to extend my stay but, if needed, to come back afterwards. I am still determining where I’m going next. At the moment, I’m still convinced that New Zealand is my next destination! But I do have to admit it’s been changing a lot lately!
