Once upon a time a little girl was bored out of her brain in Mount Gambier. She was so fed up she decided to get out of that quaint little town with the big blue lake and head to the big smoke. But she found herself in a quandary, that's a "state of perplexity or uncertainty over what to do in a difficult situation" kiddies.
After many teenage years of crippling boredom in Mount Gambier, the only thing that usually succeeds in getting me back there is the obligatory love of my family (and even then my mother would say it's an uphill battle). The town itself is nothing short of stunning - lush green expanses, a sparkling blue lake, and only a hop and a skip to the beach - but somehow I can't seem to shake that gut feeling that I'd be better off staying right where I am and watching paint dry.

FiveThousand is a subcultural guide to Adelaide, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Adelaide writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FiveThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
