Hi, looking for someone who can give me a one way lift to Birdsville in August.
I can come anywhere you start go into dirt road.
I can share the petrol expenses.

Thanks
Michael

I drive a 100 series petrol. You pay for all the fuel both ways and you got a deal.

Gday Laura,

I'm flexible with leaving dates at any day from 1 August untill around 16 August.
I live in Sydney. For me is not a problem to hitchhike to get to your point of origin (where the main bitumen roads are leading) . I just want to get to Birdsville or around Eyre Creek/Peoppel Corner and I will be going for around 7-10 days walk in the Simpson Desert.
I did some walking in Great Sandy Desert last year and now I want to see how my body will react in a bit different conditions. I'm planning bigger adventure in following years but first I must prepare in short trips to find out all potencial problems and be familiar with the specific desert enviroment.
I have experience, essential skills and necessary equipment. For me as a overseas student the plane is expensive and much less interesting then the overland trip. I will be forced to hitchhike my way back, probably from Beudorie area.

Would be great if you be able to give me a lift.
Michael
