We all hope to find our personal success in life at some point. We'll make the very best of our careers and chosen pathways. But there are times when this determination can become toxic and impede on our ability to simply enjoy life.

But a man named Rich East decided to do something different. He realized there was something more important than his job and his material possessions.

One day he just quit his job, sold everything he had and embark on a lifelong dream of traveling. Sounds pretty brave, doesn't it? Well, he didn't decide to do it alone. Accompanying him was his sweet cat, a darling feline named Willow.

Two and a half years have gone by for Willow and Rich's adventures. They're a surprising sight for any onlookers, just a man, and his cat enjoying their adventures!

He travels Australia with Willow in their shared camper van. It provides comfortable accommodations on their journey and so far they've made it over 50,000 kilometers through Australia. This is since they left their home in a town called Hobart in Tasmania.

Since he had already sold all of his possessions, there's not as much daily stress of taking managing material things and trying to keep up the rat race. This relieves a tremendous amount of stress on Rich, but he says it still wasn't easy to make the transition.

But he knew he had to do it if he wanted to live the life he was dreaming of. Willow is living well too, having the time of her life just being a happy cat in nature with her human companion. What more could a feline want than to be loved, safe, warm, and enjoying the great outdoors?

They recently reach South Australia, marking a milestone in their journey. They've even sailed to the Great Barrier Reed and camped high in the mountains in the northern territory.

Willow never seems to complain about their travels. But Rich makes sure to keep key safe and keeps a special tracker if she ever managed to wander off.

But for now, everything is going great and they're just enjoying life.

They're far from home, but they have no intention to slow down. This man and his cat are having good times that they're just gonna keep rolling.

Do you need a break from the everyday mundane scenery? Let Willow and Rich inspire you and your friends to start dreaming again.
