After 2 years, I'm still out there!!
(Preview)
I can't believe that it has been 2 years now that I have been on the road! A lot of the newbies won't know me as I haven't been on here too much lately. I'm a Kiwi, who sold up all to come over here, buy a m/home and drive around the block! I've done, Vic, SA, NT and WA. It's taken me two years because I am not old eno...

Do I fit in?
(Preview)
Hello, I am new here and not sure I belong, I am still in my late 30s with only a few grey hairs :) I am going to travel Australia for a year on my own. It will be a mix of camping of my station wagon and housesitting and picking up work where I can to keep the funds moving. As you can imagine there don't seem to be m...

We quite often see queries on here by and about women thinking of hitting the road on their own. Some seem (understandably) apprehensive. However, I had a chat today with the manager of a camper dealership in Perth's northern suburbs. He had a big range of the type of camper vans that would suit the sin...

Cost of travelling alone - I'm angry!
(

(Preview)
What a whinger! but honestly. I've just returned from a 15000kms trip around WA in my Hiace. I'm pretty disgusted with the cost of both powered and non-powered sites in caravan parks - especially in WA. In 99% of cases I was charged exactly the same as 2 people in a large caravan being towed by a large vehi...

The car...the good old Kingswood...broke down leaving us stranded on the side of the road in the middle of now...
