Norseman

All travellers driving across the Nullarbor will pass through this small town, about halfway between Esperance and Kalgoorlie. Norseman was founded after gold was discovered here at the end of the 18th century, but nowadays its just a sleepy town at the end of the long drive from South Australia. Norseman has an ATM, a grocery store and a telecentre with internet access.
