I visited this website daily when we were preparing for our 4wd trip around this great country of ours and even asked a few questions along the way. Some details
about us: We left from
Sydney in August 2005 and went clockwise around. We are both 28 years old now and finally
home and adjusting to the real world (work and suburban life) and a new baby boy! That what happens when youre camping and theres no TV!
Our most favourite destination are (in no order) TASMANIA for its pure air and excellent snorkelling, THE KIMBERLEYS for being the kimberleys (no words to describe) and
CAPE YORK for its feeling of isolation. We have many many favourite
places which we plan to visit again when our little man is a little older and out of nappies!
Our 4WD: 2004 Holden Rodeo crew cab bought new and we added the following for the trip - canopy, BF Muds,
snorkel, CB, ARB Bullbar,
driving lights, brush bars and side steps. We did not lift it but managed to get thru some hairy situations with careful driving.
We noticed while on the trip there are plenty of
young people from overseas travelling around this land but any aussies we met were few and far between. In fact, we still keep in contact with the aussies we met that were around our age and can count them on one hand. What can we do to encourage the youngones to get out there? They are missing out!
