Thank you for the insiders view. I drive a lot and have wondered many times about what this lifestyle must be like. I find your insight fascinating, and I appreciate the time you took to give us the tour! What an amazing adventure.

Casalba: Thanks! Yeah, the "check, check" often helps. I think I passed an inspection in California because of it! LOL Deeba: Greatly appreciate the "WOW". Thank you. Sounds like you've had a few cool jobs too! LaraDunston: Please keep an eye out for those Truck Drivin' Sheila's when you're out on the road traveling through those woop woops!

How cool is she! I’m going to have to join the rant.

We have occasionally seen women driving trucks in Italy, and I’ve made an effort to check the number plate to see which country they were from.

My dad drove trucks for a while, and I drove with him a few times on school holidays – another thing that inspired my love of travel I guess – but in Australia in those days a woman truck driver was unheard of. I’ll have to see if things have changed when we soon go on the road to update the Rough Guide to Australia.

Thanks, Michelle!

*WOW* Salute to you great lady. What a great great post & what an absolute eye-opener! I love everything about what you do, the hard work, the beauty & the rants that you manage to log & blog about...*BOW* to your spirit & the way you've written the post! Man, I love it! I worked in airport operations, tarmac, cargo,bomb scares & all many years ago, which was challenging, but not as your vocation is....WAY TO GO!

Tina: I’ve always wanted to be mega super hot! I’m glad you liked the post. I have to say – dancing the tango? Pretty mega hot yourself!!

Jen: Glad you liked the post, and keep giving advice on how to live joyfully. Just today I tried to drill that concept into the head of my 20 year old cousin. She has an opportunity to do a semester (5 months) in Parma, Italy and she’s hemming and hawing about it. Scared, I think. But I keep telling her to DO IT! I have even used Michelle as an example. She just HAS to go!

Paul: Thanks there! I’m serious about that cannoli at Mike’s!

Ariana: I’ve always wanted to do a “boy’s job” – too bad it took me almost 20 years to do it! As for the color of my piggies? That’s my summer staple! It’s called “Pompeii Purple” by OPI. I wrote about it here: http://bellavenere.blogspot.com/2006/05/summer-staples.html
I am seriously NEVER without it! It turns a tanned foot into a masterpiece!! LOL

Salena, you rock, honey. How refreshing to see a woman bustin hump in a man’s world. And loving it.

So my all important super critical question for you. I can’t bear to live without the answer.

What the heck is that nail polish color you have on your piggies?? Gotta get me some.
