The air, especially in the late afternoon, carries a dry, clean scent, tinged with the faint sweetness of sun-baked earth and the resinous perfume of eucalyptus. There's a stillness to this place, a quiet contemplation that settles over the fields and along the winding, unpaved roads, broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the sudden, sharp call of a magpie.
