I discovered https://locationhistoryvisualizer.com/heatmap/ and I'm kind of amazed at how much I've travelled. It's certainly a lot more than I would've thought I would have 6 years ago

I do really need to get out to Albury, but unfortunately everyone else has the same idea and it's basically impossible to get a damn ticket now, unless I leave at 5am or go via coaches/the XPT

Bairnsdale was mainly just passing through - the real fun was in Paynesville

I have my google location permanently switched off

I thought about doing that but decided that I don't really care enough to lose out on my own personal travel diary and memory bank

But...how do you know where you are?

Saw a sign on the gate of a rural property once - it read 'You're NOT lost. You're here.' Says it all really.
