  • This week we are following 20th century explorer Michael Terry. I urge you to read Michael Terry's autobiography, it is the story of a hard, adventurous life, much of it in northern and central Australian deserts. Born in 1899, Terry fought as a mechanic in World War 1 in a British armoured car brigade in a little known action in Russia. Gassed, he was invalided out and came to Western Australia in 1919 where, on a cattle station near Carnarvon, he discovered his love for the outback.


    An explorer's routes is a tremendous way of having a goal and a focus, rather than just aimlessly wandering about the Outback, visiting the tourist hot-spots. Creating trips based around explorers and the pioneers has enabled us to gain a much fuller appreciation of the mighty Outback.


    Researching stories of explorers & pioneers and attempting to follow their routes can be enormously satisfying. It certainly gets you off those beaten tracks. And it also leads to making fantastic contacts; people who add an extra dimension and bring another perspective to the journey.


    Read the books and study the maps - search on-line - these are the Europeans who shaped our current status.

  • In our last of the Summer Series Extras, this week we prepare you for travelling, from tips, tricks, hacks to advice. Some simple maintenance before you hit the road, to advice on towing, weights and choosing a caravan. 


    We also some give an insight into some of our top coastal destinations to visit as well as off road adventures and trips to put on your bucket list. From Broome, Port Jackson to the Gibb River Road, Cape Tribulation and places in between.

    Whether you travel full-time or you just like the occasional weekender, there are some things that we can all do to make it cheaper, easier and ultimately more enjoyable. 


    We have a collection of things that we’ve found that have made our adventure less of an adventure, and allowed us to focus on having fun.

  • The Summer Series Extras continues with a trip to South Australia. We are in the caravan and on the road this week, and exploring South Australia, and its fishing, boating, surfing, swimming, camping, bushwalking and wildlife; there's so much to see and do along kilometres of pristine coast on the Yorke Peninsula.


    Just over an hour’s drive away from Adelaide and home to a whopping 700 kilometres of pristine coast, the Yorke Peninsula is one of South Australia’s most accessible seaside escapes. Spend your days lounging on sandy-white shores and cooling off at one of the local breweries before retreating to you chic Hamptons-style cottage just minutes from the breathtaking Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park, or wind your way along the coast on the Coastal Way road trip.

  • This week we are in search of gold, and give you comprehensive details into how to find gold, what is the equipment to use and where to go. Join Nicki as she gives you the knowledge and tips of how to hopefully strike it rich!


    We headed to the Golden Triangle and Victoria's Dunolly which is an historic gold mining town which, at its height in the 1860s, had a population possibly as high as 35,000. Today it has less than 1,000.


    Its kurrajong-lined main street retains some attractive old buildings from its boom days. The area is now given over principally to farming though goldmining still occurs in the area. Today it is a quiet, attractive and historic service centre with a large number of historic buildings to remind visitors of its past glory days.

  • Lake Eildon is Victoria’s most popular inland waterway for Recreational Boating Activities. Beneath its waters lies a history all of its own with towns such as Darlingford and Bonnie Doon flooded to make way for the massive inland lake which was started and further expanded in 1915, 1929, 1931 and 1954.


    My family has had a close relationship with this area, working it, fishing, living near it or on its shores to farming and gold mining. We look at the secrets beneath, the history and a family tale on The Road Less Travelled

  • Lake Argyle is one of the largest man-made lakes in the southern hemisphere and home to more than 70 islands.Created by the Ord River Dam, it's classified as an inland sea and at its peak in the green season Lake Argyle holds a staggering 10.7 billion cubic metres of water at full supply level. That's more than 18 times the size of Sydney Harbour.

    Lake Argyle is approximately 75km by road from Kununurra, via the Victoria Highway. You can take the leisurely and scenic 40-minute drive from Kununurra through the Carr Boyd Ranges to Lake Argyle's shores, or to appreciate its immensity, hop on a scenic flight - you can even go by float plane and land on the lake. You can also cruise from Kununurra along the Ord River to Lake Argyle, and this week you can join us at Lake Argyle.

  • The Birdsville Track is a notable outback road in Australia. The 517-kilometre (321 mi) track runs between Birdsville in south-western Queensland and Marree, a small town in the north-eastern part of South Australia. It traverses three deserts along the route, the Strzelecki Desert, Sturt Stony Desert and Tirari Desert.

    Birdsville Track is one of the most iconic dirt roads in Australia. Barren and isolated, drivers need plenty of water and fuel as they make their way from Maree all the way to Birdsville. It’s an icon amongst Australian Outback tracks, and one we tackle this week

  • Edward John Eyre's truly remarkable crossing of The Great Australian Bight and the Nullarbor Plain is the feat for which he is best remembered.


    In the full heat of summer and the depths of an Australian winter (1840-41), Edward John Eyre explored the rugged and unforgiving coastline between Streaky Bay on South Australia's west coast, and King George's Sound - present day Albany - in Western Australia. In all a distance of over 1200 miles.


    In the spirit of reconciliation this episode is dedicated to the memory of Edward John Eyre and his companion Wylie.

  • The locations- Lake Bonney, Lake Eyre and Lake Dumbleyung. It was the height of the swinging sixties, and in Australia was a famous British speed record breaker determined to put himself in the history books. Donald Campbell, broke eight absolute world speed records on water and on land in the 1950s and 1960s. That year was 1964 and he took his famous Bluebirds, on land and on water to both South Australia and Western Australia to become the fastest man.

    He remains the only person to set both world land and water speed records in the same year.

  • The Melbourne Leisurefest has been operating for over 20 years at Sandown Racecourse and is one of the largest caravan and camping shows in Victoria! The event was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the global coronavirus pandemic, and that meant everyone was out in force over the 2022 event.


    We went along to the venue which showcased the largest and most popular range of caravans, pop-tops, tents, camper trailers, motorhomes, 4x4, outdoor lifestyle accessories and tourism destinations, all in the one spot.


    It’s the ultimate way for consumers to check out all things caravanning and camping in one great location.

  • Over almost 150 years, the word ‘Pentridge’ became eponymous with prison. Following the closure of the Melbourne Gaol in the 1920s, Pentridge became the main remand and reception prison for the Melbourne metropolitan area. Closed in 1997 the prison has undergone a massive restoration plus redevelopment and has turned into a vibrant shopping location of apartments accommodation and a village precinct. You can shop within the prison walls, watch a movie and stroll around the grounds or join a ghostly tour.


    But these walls hold residual secrets and this week we visit Pentridge to find out more, learn about its beginnings and its former inhabitants who are reputed to still walk the bluestone floors.
