Hey fellow nomads. Just about finished sorting gear, then on the road fulltime. Weapon of choice is a 2016 D-max and Goldstream RV. A farmstay near Echuca is the first destination, then possibly on to Greens Lake. Looking forward to seeing you out there.

G'day folks. Well I am just a couple of days from heading back across the Nullarbor again on what must be now about my 40th crossing since I first took on that 1,000 MILES of dirt track in the winter of 1964, aged 21, in my then new 1964 VW beetle. Sadly it's been 18 years since I last drove across but that ano...

Is it common to have to pay for the 1st service of a new van? Going on new cars where the first 1000 km service is free! Just wondering if that applies to vans or am I about to be ripped off?

The one state that has escaped my detailed 'inspection' is...

I was told that this small town would be lovely, and it is. I saw whales breaching out from Chinaman's rock this morning and a dolphin hunting just off the jetty about 5m from me. I was also told that it would be expensive to stay here as there are no free camps within easy distance, just caravan parks. But i...
