Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,7, University of Hannover (Philosophische Fakultät), course: Academic Writing and Research, language: English, abstract: The Australian outback is a reckless place to live in. It does not compromise but has to be taken the way it is: rugged, hot and dry. Still, there are people who chose to rather come to terms with all the difficulties of living in such a rough place, than moving to the comfort of the city. This paper aims to show how some of these difficulties, being education problems, insufficient healthcare and loneliness, are overcome, and why there are people who still prefer this lifestyle over the easier way of living in the city.

For as long as he can remember, Daniel 'Monty' Montgomery has been Faith's best friend. When he was ten, his parents sold the family property in Merindah and moved to Perth to be closer to support services for his autistic brother, and ever since, Monty's dreamed of having his own place. So for the last ten years, he's been back on the land, working odd jobs and saving every dollar to put toward his dream. And now he finally has it. But there's still something missing...

Through an enterprise founded on hope and grit - now operating as AAT Kings - he opened up a completely new branch of Australian tourism. Thousands of Australians have experienced the adventure of a lifetime in Bill's capable hands, often walking in the footsteps of explorers such as Burke and Wills, Leichhardt, Sturt and Stuart.Eccentric drivers, mad passengers and sticky situations abound against the backdrop of the glorious Australian outback.

Bill never lost a passenger or brought one to harm, though by heck they did sometimes try his monumental patience.
