You are… The Potterer

You’ve never understood the need to come home from a holiday needing another holiday.

For you, getting away means slowing down, switching off and leaving plenty of room in the day for absolutely nothing urgent.

The best Murray moments have always been the ones that weren’t planned. Slow mornings by the river. Wandering into town for an ice cream. Cards under the caravan awning long after dinner because, for once, nobody has anywhere else to be.

In the Murray region, doing very little is considered a day well spent.

Start your tradition

Bring back the art of having nowhere to be. Let the day unfold without worrying about what’s next, and see where your nose takes you when you leave the Googling behind. Wander into Barham for a coffee and stay longer than planned. If the afternoon finds you beside Lake Boga watching the pelicans, there’s no need to hurry off. We have a feeling your pottering might just lead you somewhere you’ll want to keep coming back to.
