Recently, a young couple popped up on Ins!
They traveled around Australia in a van and recorded the adventure on Ins.
Nearly three hundred thousand netizens, not only were shocked by the beauty of their Po, but were envious of their love and state of life:
"this is the freedom and love that I aspire to."
"someone in the world is really realizing my dream."
Now let's feel the dog food! (of course I'm not the only one who can eat it)
Perhaps you will think that this couple is a rich second generation, with the trouble of "money can not be spent", you can drive around the world at will.
Very wrong, they are in fact an ordinary couple can no longer be ordinary, there is no gold mine waiting to inherit. As you and I have experienced sardine life. In the concrete reinforced urban jungle, was pushed forward by the tide.
Elise is 27 years old and has been in love with 30-year-old husband Domenic for nine years. The two have passed through each other's lives by 1 / 3.
They went to school together in Melbourne. After graduation, like most young people, they are busy working overtime day after day. At the end of the day, it was numb to work except sleep. The communication between each other also becomes less and less.
The body and soul of the two people are extremely tired, "it is really not possible to continue like this."
They re-examined themselves for a long time, working all these years and forgetting their dream of traveling around Australia together.
"Dear, life is precious and short, and we repeat the same and boring things every day," Elise told her husband.
Fortunately, we are still young. Why don't we take advantage of our adventurous spirit and witness the beauty of the world. "
After listening to Elise's ideas, Domenic agreed very much. So he began to prepare for this late trip to Australia.
Because of their small savings and security concerns, they chose a van as a safe place to travel.
For $20, 000, he bought a cheap second-hand Volkswagen Kombi camper online.
To make the used car, which was about to venture with them, a warm home, the two made a modification.
Behind the cab, a small sink and a small stove were installed.
Zhang Ke to drink afternoon tea, while looking at the stars while drinking small square table.
Then there was a soft bed. With the season, mood change sheet. After tired in the boat car, can be comfortable to go to sleep.
Bring a frying pan, two sets of cutlery, and wine, and a simple and warm home is finished.
One afternoon in 2014, they set out for the round-the-dream Australia trip.
On the way, they felt the blue ocean together, sometimes the sea was rough, sometimes the wind was calm
It's like living in a fairy tale world, seeing a beautiful rainbow.
Wake up at 05:00, eat breakfast, drink wine, touch a glass with your lover to welcome the sunrise
Then he drove in a van and went to collect new landscapes.
They reach "the heart of Australia," where Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park), meets the world's largest rock as a whole in the vast wilderness.

After a day's drive-by adventure, set in a new setting at sunset, burning bonfires, tasting food and wine, waiting for the moon to appear.
And then, under the stars, I saw a movie about love.
After that, we went to sleep together to witness the different sunrise.
On this trip, the two men not only collected a lot of beautiful scenery, but also met a lot of lovely animals.
There's a kangaroo that's very curious about the lens.
Koala with cute thinking on the side of the road.
A red and blue macaw that likes to be close to humans.

The Elise couple also met a group of young people who were also living in a "RV life", and they had a warm heart-to-heart exchange like friends.
Domenic smiled and said:
"on this trip, we walked through deserts, grasslands, oceans, rainforests. We have enough rest and happiness, and I feel a kind of freedom. "
"what happened on the road gave me a new understanding of the concept of success: success is not about how much wealth we can create, but whether we can lead an ideal life."
Elise then spilled a handful of dog food: "I'm glad we made the decision together."
"on this trip, we have more time to get along and get to know each other. Dom, I'll say a million times to thank you for making my dreams come true."
As for the future, their adventures will continue. Perhaps to the equator, perhaps to the Northern Hemisphere, perhaps to the Arctic Circle.
The van will carry more stories.
Seeing their romantic story reminds me of a passage written by the writer Sanmao: "Life is not about length, it's about having a good life."
Since we have no way to determine the length of life, we can determine the beauty of life.
While young, to explore more unknown, freedom and distance are lovely and precious.
