Welcome to the forum I want to be a nomad from Us. I'm glad to hear your Mum is out there enjoying herself. One day, your dream to do the same will also become reality. Enjoy the forum in the meantime.

Welcome from me too Deb, enjoy here and out in the playground.
Just a small word of warning if I may, be careful when walking around the forum of wombat holes but don't be too dazzled by them and if you are lucky you might even see a gypsy.

Hello Deb ?? IF what you say is true ?? then i wish your parents many long and happy travels, and I also wish you the same when the time comes
HOWEVER ?? I think you are trying to take some of us nomads for a little marketing ride Hence your addition of your sales website "" [ most unusual for a newie ?? \
If this is the case I do not think any members here would be silly enough to fall for such a marketing scam, And also would not put any faith into a product That uses cloak and dagger type tactics to advertise the product,, How could anyone trust what a company says, if the advertising is built on Deceit ??
Sincere apologies IF i am wrong ?? But i don't think so ,,

You picked up on that quick Cloak. I hadn't even noticed the two links at the bottom till I read your post.

Welcome Deb, as others have said, hope you are genuine. If so I would hope your parents are members here and we can enjoy their travels as much as you seem to be doing. We might even know them, or might have met them.

Neither had I and I didn't bother opening them. My welcome is still out there for Deb.

Oh Boy, I'm sorry to you all. I'm not here as a scammer. The links below my name are our family business, yes. But it isn't a marketing scam as some said.. It is a genuine company who cares about the well being of people's health... You don't have to look at anything or buy anything. Thats not what I'm here for. I certainly have nothing to hide.. Want to know .. Just ask!
I'm not sure why I'm explaining myself here. I thought I would find nice genuine folk here, not people who would be so quick to judge .. I really do hope you all have safe travels and lots of adventures.
And for those who doubt if what I say is real.. My mum and dad are at this moment in Alice Springs volunteering at the Ghan Railway museum. Im sure many in here will attest to this. I AM a mum of 4 , living and working full time in Sydney who would love to travel with my husband around our beautiful country one day. But to be honest, I hope the people I meet aren't as judgemental as some of you.
Thank you to those who have messaged me with lovely welcome. God bless you

I didn't notice anything either, I must have fallen down one of those wombat holes In reckon. My welcome still stands as well.

Sorry Deb, but you are taking it the wrong way. The moderator very quickly comes down on people who put advertising links on their posts. They can be banned from the site. So its not that we don't trust you but that we can be a bit suspicious at times. If your parents are members on here you only needed to say so, we welcome all who love this life we are enjoying.
Dougwe said
03:09 AM May 24, 2013
Even more so Deb after reading your last comment that you must have been posting at the same time as me.
Again, welcome.

Welcome Deb,
I see you have removed the links from below your signature, good move , you won't cop any flack then. You could add it to your profile in "User Details" in case anyone is interested in what you do, that way it will not be on the main forum posts.
A very big welcome to me and I am sure you will have a lot to contribute
Grams said

Hi Deb,
I must say I never noticed either. But you will find a lot of forums across the www don't like you to advertise anything, even a family business. It is like this across the board, and it's not just here on this forum.
Again a big welcome.

Hi all. Just to explain. Some of the comments in this string may no longer make sense as I have removed the commercial links at the bottom of the posts from 'I want to be a Nomad'. We are very keen to protect the integrity of this forum and do not allow it to be used for the promotion of commercial interests. Having said that, I hope that 'I Want to be a Nomad' - and her parents - can enjoy this forum for what it is ... a place to learn about the on-the-road lifestyle, share stories and advice, and have a bit of fun with fellow travellers and wannabe travellers.

Hi Deb!
That old saw "Getting there is half the adventure" doesn't just apply to getting from Point A to Point B out on the road - it also applies to the lead-up to getting on the road. At least that's what I tell myself................

Deb - some of us will call you by your name (Deb) and some will call you by your sign in name. We will probably call you by 'I want to be a nomad' as that's your sign in name. Hope you still feel very welcome.
