Introducing myself and husband Colin
Permalink  

Hi, Just joined this wonderful forum, We live near Perth WA started our camping on the back of a Holden Rodeo tray back with canvas cover towing a trailer, comfy but a bit hard on us older codgers. We then went for a older wind- up camper but found it to hard of work as Colin was recovering from lung cancer. We then brought a old Windsor loverly van heaps of storage but not quite big enough, so sold it and.  brought a 16ft Coromal. Done a few small trips then a trip to Darwin and back. Still not quite what we wanted, so brought a 20ft Off roader Coromal with loo and shower. Then started our first big trip trip up to Darwin, across to Booralooa, Cape Crawford. Tenant Creek, Alice Springs, Ularu, Coast of SA then home across the Nullabour. Great trip which took about 3mths. We have since been right around including Tassie this was the best part of 10 mths. now after 12 mths break we will be hitting the road again to go right around again around March April. Its a great life on the road.
