It's further than travelling across Europe (over 4000 Ks) and nearly as far as Ewan and Charlie are famous for doing in their long way series on T.V. This overlay will bring the enormity of the trip into perspective. M...

Hi Everyone How do you rid yourself of Geckoes in a caravan? We are in Gladstone and have picked up some unwelcome hitch hikers. We would really like to rehome them to anywhere other than our van. Can you help?

Two of us are planning on becoming grey nomads next year. One of us has sleep apnea and needs to use a machine during the night and hence we require a fair bit of power. What are the rules and/or the etiquette of using a generator at a free camping site to charge batteries, eg say up to 8 pm?

Unfortunately, I was a trifle early and disturbed them but we ended up having a good chat about the frustrating problems they are havi...
