The Beginning (and preparations: Camera gear)
It's official - we are leaving Australia and going traveling! Countdown is 4 weeks and first flights to Tasmania are booked.
I don't promise to document every step we take but I do intent to share as much as possible so it'll be easy to follow our journey across couple of continents.
Preparations so far have included:
- A practise back over the weekend. I was done in 30min while the other half took 3 hours. I will be carrying way too much stuff versus him who claims he'll survive with one jumper for 14 months. Ok.
- Buying more stuff. Next on the list: Get rid of old stuff.
But in all fairness I had to get a proper camera. One can't go on with iPhone panorama & Photoshop Auto Tone- function forever. I went with Panasonic Lumix 100 (LX100) based on the size and recommendations from a trusted source, dad. Since I didn't know anything about photography it's been couple of long nights learning about all the finer details about this travel companion.
I'm pretty sure first attempts I publish here will be fairly shit but at least then you see how you improve.
And now we'll start from the very bottom. Here's my camera (and globe from Jessica!).
