Hello everyone,,, joined the group over a month ago but have had no time to introduce US. We are a young at heart couple that sold up, left our corporate jobs, bought our Rodeo and Roadstar and hit the road and have not looked back. Apart from a few speed bumps in life ( lost the roadstar due to a hail storm, husband undergoing 2 back operations, supporting mum during her health challenge ) this dream of ours has become our life. Our base is in beautiful Coffs Harbour NSW. We travelled to Batesford Geelong for work. This has now finished for my husband after 8weeks and we are heading back to the outback but instead the Qld outback (last time) we are now heading to the Pilbara Region at a station called CheelaPlains WA. Set on 500,000 acres (small one) with an oasis of a fresh water hole surrounded by gum trees and rock formation. We have committed to staying with this family for 12 months and are both working with a good income. Paraburdoo is the closest town for shopping about 90ks away ( I think). The weather in Geelong takes a weeeee bit getting used to so we are looking forward to the heat however hot it may get, sure to be sure it will in the 40's. The friendships we made during our time on the road is priceless and so are our experiences in caravan parks and free camps. We are photo buffs so the camera is practically glued to my hand while hubby drives. Our FB friends are always waiting eagerly for new pics. And of course it goes without saying are envies of having a go attitude. But that is life and one has to make the best of it. cheers from Neals on Wheels
