Vyras nesėdi vietoje: atsisakė darbo, namų ir leidosi į kelionę su kate

Gal tai tik paprastas juoda katė iš prieglaudos, tačiau jai teko nukeliauti daugiau nei 50 tūkst. kilometrų kemperiu Australijoje. Katė Vilou ir jos šeimininkas Ričis kartu keliauja nuo 2015 m. gegužės, kuomet paliko gimtąjį Hobarto miestą, esantį Tasmanijos valstijoje, rašo BoredPanda.com.

Katės šeimininkas prisipažįsta – dėl šio nuotykio jis paliko darbą, pardavė namus ir kitą turtą. Vyras atsisakė visko, išskyrus savo katę, su kuria ir išvyko į kelionę.

2017 m. vasarį porelė nukeliavo į Pietų Australiją – pasiekus šią valstiją, jie gali pasigirti aplankę visas šešias Australijos valstijas.

„Padarėme tai kartu – aplankėme daug gražių vietų. Neįsivaizduoju šios kelionės be savo augintinės. Kartu plaukiojome Didžiuoju barjeriniu rifu, kopėme į kalnus ir įveikėme tūkstančius kilometrų“, – rašė Ričis.

Anot jo, kai kuriems žmonėms atrodo, kad keliauti su kate gali būti nepatogu, tačiau jos šeimininkas tikina, kad Vilou mėgaujasi nauju gyvenimo būdu ir yra visiškai rami. Gyvūnas turi specialų antkaklį, padedantį šeimininkui susekti jo buvimo vietą. Didžiąją dalį laiko ji leidžia laisva, tyrinėja aplinką.

„Smagu nuotykiais dalintis su visu pasauliu. Džiaugiuosi, kai kas nors man parašo, kad mūsų nuotraukos praskaidrino dieną. Tai suteikia motyvacijos tęsti tai, ką pradėjau“, – rašo jis.

Porelė leidžia dienas miškuose ir paplūdimiuose. Nors aplankę visas valstijas jie grįžta namo, keliautojai nežada sustoti.

„Džiaugiuosi, kad turiu Vilou. Ji pavertė kemperį namais, o visą Australiją – savo kiemu. Ji pati geriausia bendražygė“, – rašo Ričis.

~Happiness is spending some quality time with your cat!

~ Adventure doesn't have to be about climbing mountains or crossing deserts. Sometimes it's about opening the doors and watching the world go by. To be somewhere you've never been before - even if it means staying in bed! And sharing it with a good friend makes it just that bit sweeter.

In 2016 we celebrated a year on the road and I joked about how we had only made it as far as central Qld. Today, we celebrate two years and although we have put in some serious 'kilometerage' through the NT and WA completing our visit to every state, we have still not finished our 'Big Lap'. And we are fine with that. I'm often told that there is very little stopping one from achieving their goals. I will tell these people that there is also very little stopping you from going to the beach tonight with your favourite cheese and watching the sunset. With this mentality we enter our third year, a year that I have not quite mapped out yet, nor have any good reason to do so. It is that we have settled so well into this new life that any need to get from A to B is now impertinent. In previous years I would often wake up wondering where I should be, but lately I realise that I am already there. The average size of an Australian house is over 200 metres squared. Our home is just 5m2 and provides our warmth, shelter, a place to cook, and a place to sleep. A place to work, a place to sit and watch the world go by as the tides change or a storm comes in. Where we park soon becomes an extension of our home and we have been spending increasing amounts of time doing just that. There is a deep comfort I have found in knowing that everything I need is in one spot, including my companion, a little cat whose coat is so vibrant and with temperament to match. Other travellers will ask me which way I'm headed; I am often unable to tell them, to their confusion. We are not really headed anywhere in particular and some weeks calling ourselves travellers seems untrue. Maybe 'nomad' would be a better term in that our movements are seasonal as we search for climates that best suit our days. So I thank you, each of you, for sharing in our adventure and the adventure and memories yet to come - for it is not over yet - for your messages of hope and inspiration, and for just enjoying Willow's wide eyed wonder in the land we call our Australian home. And of course, thank you Willow - The little black adventure cat who has made my van into a home and the whole of Australia her backyard!
