I was a week away from starting back in August this year but I fell over and broke both of my shoulders. I've been on the mend since, another couple of months to go. I live in W.A.

Newbie went outback solo sorta
(Preview)
I've just got back from my 1st solo trip outback (20days 3700kms). I ended up only going as far as Alice and I didn't end up doing the Oodnadatta Track, which was just as well because the weather suddenly got wet and wild and I would probably still be stuck at William Creek. I got a motel room at Spuds Roadh...

Social Isolation - AKA Loneliness.

When we go the Solo Grey Nomad thing we have Geography at our command. We see and marvel at the magnificence of Nature. We read all those books and plays we never had time for when W*** once got in the way. Perhaps it is true that when we have been alone for some time and then we interact with other humans, we f...

Good Lord! I Found You.

Looks like I might have found the Mother Lode, here. I'm 72 and all I have is an old dog, an old land cruiser and an 18' caravan. I do a good impersonation of Clink in Hogan's Hero's. I know NOTHING about caravans or the nuances of towing them. I also believe in safety in numbers when travelling. Hoping for y...

Hi All I have made the decision and starting to look at campervans. My question is do I need a 4WD? I am looking at 2003 Kombi Van ATM. I do not want anything big, something simple. Can any of you ladies respond with what sort of rig you are travelling in? Thanks Janis
