What is Adventure?

What is Adventure, blog by Mel A ROWE

Dare I ask…What is Adventure?

For some, it’s going to a shopping centre’s grand opening with its state-of-the-art gymnasium that’s classier than a five-star hotel.

It could be an adventure to try a new recipe while preparing to watch a new reality TV programme or attempting some new craftwork for the home.  It could be daring to try a new hairstyle or that new outfit for that swanky party you normally wouldn’t attend.

You could take a horse ride to hike along some new trails. What about signing up to play a new sport, or go riding on a motorbike before jumping off a cliff while wearing a parachute. Huh?

Or, it’s simply lying on a beach reading a book in an exotic holiday destination as part of your well-deserved vacation.

Can Adventure be as simple as stepping out the back door…

Under the Aussie Summer sun, you’re hit by a wall of sauna-styled heat. Yet, you still manage to step over the snake stretched out against the cool air spilling from under the door.

Your boots crunch on meat ants that mesh with the red dry dust, carrying that feeling of being watched by sleepy possums in gum trees. Bats screech from their vertical inclines, while cicadas do their best to urinate on the closest moving targets, and mosquitos dive bomb you in their efforts to satiate their vampiric tendencies.

And that’s the adventure of just getting to the car!

What about the other interpretations of Adventurous behaviour?

As individuals, we have unique levels of pain threshold, would this be the same for a person’s adventure tolerance?

Wouldn’t that also be the gauge for the level of risk someone is willing to take on their own personal adventure?

For me, adventure is going wherever the road leads. Whether it’s writing my character’s journey of self-discovery, or snapping my newest favourite photo on a re-found hiking trek, adventure is stepping out of my comfort zone of the mental and physical kind.

It can be hard.

It can be simple.

But it’s all about taking that chance by just daring to that risk.

What is your interpretation of adventure?

We all live in different environments, like my backyard, (seen on Instagram). Did you know that it would take 8 days of driving 24 hours non-stop to get to the nearest Starbucks for a coffee? We googled it!

Helen Keller – Life is a daring adventure or nothing at all.

What about an Adventure of the imagination?

Still with me?

Well, seeing as how you’ve read this far, why not lie back on the couch, feet up, with a cup, or a glass of your favourite beverage and indulge in some well-deserved me-time.

Now, picture this… sand, surf, scooters and storms on a tropical island that all become the tools for a romantic adventure story, A STRANGERS STORM and it’s yours – FREE!

 

Unplanned Party Quote Pins 6 Roadtrip Blog-min

 

Regardless of the type of adventure, it’s daring to do something out of your routine, which is what happens in:

In the Amazon International Bestseller, THE FOOTBALL WHISPERER  is where a famous footballer dares to take a risk and make a new friend in the country…

WINTER’S WALK is the amazing adventure of a young woman dealing with a disability who aims for a goal that helps her find love along the way.

And the ELSIE CREEK SERIES is the ultimate outback adventure from utes, road trains, freight trains and ag-planes, set in a place where the cattle and the crocodiles outnumber the people–who still manage to find love.
