When a region such as Western Australia’s Coral Coast has warm sunny days throughout the year, that can only mean there’s loads of sun loving fun to be had. Then, add into the mix some magnificent beaches, rugged coastlines, breathtaking gorges, 4×4 tracks, and some of the best natural attractions in the state, and this […]
Whether you’re off for a relaxing weekend getaway or packed up to do a lap of the map, most of us need to stick to a budget of some sort. But that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on all the good stuff because your backyard money tree looks like it’s ready for the […]

When we’ve found a sensational place to set up camp for a week or more, this normally means we’re away from a 240v supply. This isn’t an issue when we can rely on LPG gas to keep food and some drinks cold in an absorption 3-way fridge. Then when you add heating the hot water […]
When we hit the road or tracks, we’re pretty well always towing either our 21’ caravan or one of our camper trailers. Now as they all weigh more than 750kg, we use an electric braking system and have a brake controller fitted in our tow vehicles. So given the types of terrains we find […]
