Sometimes I would go out and explore local nature… for instance, one time a took a helicopter flight out over the local area. But I mostly used the internet a lot.
I do a lot of reading and writing these days so it was really easy to make that work in the outback. My girlfriend was living with me too so I wasn’t bored or lonely. My internet was a bit slower and I didn’t have 30 fast food joints within 10 blocks, but I had less distractions and was much more focused when I did do research and writing. I dunno, the benefits outweighed the drawbacks for me.
Also, I don’t want anyone to get the impression that I was making a sacrifice and roughing it “out in the sticks”. This place was a well stocked hotel with musicians playing every night, meals prepared by chefs, and hundreds of rich European tourists coming through every day. It was definitely the most well-fed I’ve ever been in my entire life and also one of the most entertaining and comfortable places I’ve lived as well.

What kind of singles scene is there in the Australian outback?
As I mentioned, there are “hundreds of rich European tourists coming through every day.”
Seriously though, it’s probably not as good as it would be in a metro area, especially if you wanted lasting connections.
