Here's the scene: as I type this note to you I am sitting at the kitchen table of a caravan filled with Yermans and Frenchies hurdling up the east coast of australia. Contrary to what my mother may believe, we have not been kidnapped and forced into a camping-loving cult but have instead decided to take the ultimate roadtrip in the most quintessential way. We met the group in sydney and are now in our third day of travel - we have already visited some beautiful beaches and have settled into the caravan lifestyle (minus the chemical toilet which we have elected to leave barren to spare us all). We have also decided to introduce a phrase of the day in English, French, and German. Yesterday, the English term was 'narly', the french was 'dans tou cou' which nicely means 'in your ass' and is supposedly used whenever someone asks you where something is and that is your kindly response. The German word of the day was 'highfisch' which we think means shark but maybe that was a joke?
