Can you say more about Kangaroo island, and the
dhamma activity there? I'm planning on retiring very
soon to pursue full time dhamma practice, and
currently my plan is to head to Hawaii (like you I
love nature), but I've heard some things from friends
about the economic advantages (of the us dollar)
living in Australia or New Zealand, so naturally I am
curious to learn more about it, especially if there is
a thriving community of dhamma practitioners.

Metta,
