Episode notes

Laura from Germany had always dreamed of traveling around Australia in a converted van but didn't know how to go about buying and building one.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit and Laura's job was unaffected, she decided to pursue her dream. She discovered the "Adopt a Backpacker" movement in Australia, where Australian families took in stranded backpackers, and she posted on Facebook asking for help with buying and building a van.

A man named David responded, offering to help Laura and let her stay with his family in Brisbane for three weeks.

David's family also gave Laura camping equipment and serviced her car, all without expecting any payment.

Laura was overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity shown to her and considers it one of the most amazing experiences anyone could have.
