Where We
Are Now!
Time For An Adventure!
We are currently exploring Western Australia, from Esperance in the South and all the way up to Broome, then we will be driving all the way back across to Brisbane. We will go back to work for a few months and plan a massive top end trip….watch this space.
We will be stopping at several coastal towns on the way and some inland National Parks. We never have a plan so to keep up to date follow our socials and watch our latest YouTube Videos.

Feature Country- AUSTRALIA
We have been travelling Australia over the last 3years, first towing a caravan then with just our Landcruiser and Roof Top Tent.
​
First, (Travel Australia Series- Season 1), we completed a lap of Australia with the caravan in tow, travelling north through Queensland, ditching the caravan at Mount Carbine so we could travel up through Cape York with just the Landcruiser and swag. Afterwards, with the caravan we travelled across the tablelands and then headed right through the middle of Australia, taking in the sights of Uluru and Kata Juta
​
Next, we explored the strangest place in Australia where most people live underground (Coober Pedy) and carried on through South Australia to The Eyre, Fleurieu and Yorke Peninsulas.
​
Then, we travelled up Western Australia, where we challenged ourselves by completing THE CAPE TO CAPE track in the south and then taking in several sights as we travelled up the coast. Once we reached Broome we decided to travel back to Brisbane to work and top up the funds.
TRAVEL AUSTRALIA SERIES- SEASON 2
​
We decided to head off with just our Landcruiser and Roof Top Tent on a BIG TOP END ADVENTURE. First, we travelled to Northern Queensland, exploring the Daintree and then headed across The Savannah Way to Normanton, Burketown, through Hells Gate and onto Borroloola in the Northern Territory.
​
Next, we travelled through Limmen National Park and onto Mataranka for a well earned break in the hot springs. We then went to Australia's Last Frontier. East Arnhem Land, where we were able to experience the rawness of Cape Arnhem.
​
Then, we travelled through Litchfield, Kakadu and drove across to Kununurra in Western Australia. From here we were able to explore The Bungle Bungles and Lake Argyle. Next, we travelled through The Kimberly on The Gibb River Road, exploring many gorges and the spectacular Mitchel Falls.
​
After finally reaching Broome and a quick visit up The Dampier Peninsula, we headed across to Halls Creek to start the 1077kms across The Tanami Desert, which is still considered to be one of the most isolated places on Earth.
​
One desert wasn't enough for us, we decided to experience the thrill of travelling across the Simpson Desert, with over 1100 sand dunes to conquer. The Simpson Desert is the largest parallel sand dune desert in the world.
​
We've recently explored The Border Ranges, Main Range National Park and The Bunya Mountains in Queensland and the border of New South Wales.
​
We're NOW travelling through New South Wales, exploring both inland tracks and coastal scenery, trying to keep off the Beaten Track as much as possible. CHECK OUT THE LATEST ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL- CLICK HERE!
