Very, very excited to see the interest on the show and what viewers might want to know for their future travels. If you are interested, this is the link https://ctvplus.org.au/content/adelaide-live.

Swimming with whale sharks in Exmouth was very high on my bucket list. So glad to have experience this with the giant creatures of the ocean. There are nine different companies that conduct the tours, all prices are about the same and they all offer a return dive if no whale sharks are present. Local West Australians are treated the same as those from the eastern states, though a flight back to Perth, then up to Exmouth is a massive ask and a cost, so I imagine most

When you're travelling your clothes and sheets and blankets need cleaning. You have a few choices and the cost will vary with different scenarios. Some variables will depend on : frequency of washing, especially big washes, eg. towels, sheets how much effort you want to put into washing your items how much access you have to water for each wash cycle whether you have access to electricity for electric caravan washing machines To get some idea a video explaining the various options can be found here  Please contact me for a

Here I am out in the middle of the Goldfields and requested to offer my services for a music video. Who'd have thought. Just about to go to make-up and start filming. Thinking it might be a long night.

As can be seen from my latest video https://youtu.be/BdfPcEnOtfM the filming was a bit brief, here's why.   The necessary speed of reaction for self preservation took over. The flood water was rising, even at 6am and my original escape route was floating in water. And, to top it off, as soon as I got out of the immediate area, I was confronted with a fast flowing creek crossing. It too, was growing in size and ferocity as I waited to cross. As soon as a fellow camper arrived, I proceeded

Most of my travels in the caravan have given me a little under 3 weeks per fill. Gas usage is 1 x shower per 3 weeks, all time fridge, morning cuppa, afternoon cuppa, twice a day 2 litre saucepan for washing dishes, that's it. How that may vary. Occasional stay at caravan park with electricity supplied, occasionally running generator in bush which takes over fridge power and driving between towns where car Anderson plug gets power from the alternator.   That's a comprehensive breakdown on my gas usage. How much gas do you

What a great town in the Goldfields of Western Australia. The museum is one of the best I have seen in my travels, it seems to take you back in time and immerse you into a sensation of what those times were like. Apparently the camel farm is also worth a visit to learn a little history and to meet and greet this fine beast.        

This Ghost town is so worth a visit. Imagine the miners who lost their jobs and had no choice but to leave their homes and go searching for another job, in another town. Step back in time to this, slightly renovated, set of shacks the miners of the 1920's, when the town and mine just shut down.
