"I work in nursing. My husband came here for work, he works in contracting for mining. The wages here are good. We've done a lot of camping, it's an amazing landscape. Nursing is very different here, some days it's challenging but I have to remember I chose to come here. This is their place. (Wendy) (Why did we come here?) Adventure. We travelled to the UK for two years, got back home and thought - what do we do next? Our children are grown up and settled. When we came here it was pumping, the population has halved. The infrastructure is much better. The main strip is nicer, there's a lot more here. (Maria)" Wendy

We are so lucky to live where we live - sunshine, fresh produce space. I am proud to share it with others Sarah
It is my home and it is my story, the diversity of people and landscapes, and the freedom. I love the vast spaces and small population Angela
