walkabout 

Background: Australian. Given to us by Crocodile Dundee:
A spontaneous journey through the wilderness of one's choosing in an effort to satisfy one's itchy feet, a need to be elsewhere, the craving for the open road, that space over the horizon...yes... something like that... you can't quite touch it so you have to go find it because it's you just know it's there...Or maybe it just feels good to go walking around ... :wink: Yeah. It's WALKABOUT.

See "Crocodile Dundee" 1986 starring Paul Hogan.
See me waving 'see ya later' as I disappear over the horizon. :)

Walkabout 

A loosely planned journey or goal. Some sort of guidelines which will set you up for an adventure of highs and lows, trials and tribulations. An adventure of discovery filled with wisdom to be ascertained. A Walkabout creates the opportunity to discover the world from your own lens, and is a surefire way to realize your capabilities.

Sometimes I feel pigeonholed into other people's preconceptions of how to live a life. I'm going to go on a Walkabout and figure this shit out with my own point of view.

redneck walkabout 

The quest for aluminum cans to be recycled for cash by the poor and disenfranchised.

"Where's Clem?"
"He's on redneck walkabout so he can afford to get mama a new spittoon for her birthday."

Cincinnati Walkabout

After consuming a 5-way, spontaneously wandering around the city in search of safe haven to ventilate the pressurized buildup of kidney beans, onions, spaghetti, cheese and meat sauce.

After his Cincinnati Walkabout, Gary realized that he left his pants at home and he had crossed the river.

The amber alert was canceled after Stephanie returned from her Cincinnati Walkabout.

Walkabout 

A trek usually around woop woop which has little or no goal other than admiring nature, and the personal satisfaction of walking around the middle of nowhere and making it home alive.

Usually the recount of the trek is exaggerated to add extra excitement and trill. The trek in actual fact is usually very dull.

Walkabout's really have no logical reason or appeal other than to combat boredom with adventure. Many people who participate in walkabout's are usually told their "crazy" and "are gonna get themselves killed one day".

benj: I just got back from a walkabout northern NSW
dazza: Tell us about it
benj: Well, I was walking down past Eungella and saw this huge brown belly on the side of the road, didn't see it until I was right over it, bit me leg, thought I was a goner, but these hippies came by and took me to the hospital, bloody life savers, they are!
dazza: You're a bloody legend

wifi walkabout 

When you're outside weaving around, phone aloft, on a quest to find wifi.

Dang, my moms doesn't have wifi, so I had to go on a wifi walkabout.
