Last weekend (8/7) I got to marry my best friend i Last weekend (8/7) I got to marry my best friend in front of a small crowd of our nearest and dearest at a beautiful alpaca farm in Broke NSW.

This year has been a massive roller coaster for us. We’ve lost loved ones, our bus is still at the mechanic which isn’t looking to change soon, and our run-around car just recently died. But we have also just gotten married and got to surprise everyone with the announcement that we will soon be welcoming another member to the Roaming on Rubber family.

We keep reminding ourselves that these setbacks aren’t the end of the world and as long as we are together we know it’s going to be okay.

The day wouldn’t have been as perfect as it was without our amazing vendors.
Would easily recommend any of them again, special shout outs to @chameleoneventhire , who went above and beyond to keep the night running smoothly, and @benjonescelebrancy who crafted the perfect story and ceremony for us.

Some harsh realities of Bus life and our worst fea Some harsh realities of Bus life and our worst fears came to head on Friday.

We have been pretty quiet on social media the last few months while we waited and waited with bad news after bad news. Just as we were nearing the end and looking like we may be back on the road soon, we got the news that our bus’ engines block is cracked right through and that we have no repair options.

It’s a new engine or nothing.

So we aren’t sure what our plan is and if/when we will get back on the road as we can’t really afford that.

We are just trying to stay positive, and work out our next steps.

Thank you to people who have messaged asking where we have been, it means a lot.

For now we have started a short lease on a rental so not up to too much post worthy but hopefully we will be back on our feet in no time.
We’ve had a few setbacks so been a little quite We’ve had a few setbacks so been a little quite recently but we are almost finished! Cleaned for the valuation so thought we’d give you a look. Let us know what you think!
Not much work to go now! We just need to finish t Not much work to go now! 
We just need to finish the bathroom, build a kitchen overhead, add some trim and doors, and do a bunch of painting. Surely that won't take too long? 😂😂😂

But our new desk is in! 
Made from the same Vic Ash wood as our kitchen bench, this beauty is long enough for us to both share the space 😊

Plan is to paint it white this time rather then staining it.

Putting this in has really made us realise how much more space there is.

It's coming up great if we do say so 😁
