South Coast Australia – Part 2 – The Great Ocean Road
Probably the most famous drive in Australia, gorgeous coastal scenery, unexpected gems of small towns and a bonus unplanned wine region…
South Coast Australia – Part 1 – Melbourne
A sporty, arty, foodie city and we met up with some old friends too…
Tasmania – Part 3 – Launceston & The East Coast
Wine, gorgeous scenery, more wine, just absolutely perfect….
Tasmania – Part 2 – Central Plateau & The West Coast
Rugged and absolutely gorgeous – into the mountains of Tasmania and across to the wild West Coast – think Scotland meets the Lake District meets Snowdonia meets South Island New Zealand. Most visitors to Tasmania don’t bother making the trek West but we were so glad that we…
Tasmania – Part 1 – Hobart

East Coast Australia – Part 6 – Central New South Wales – The Hunter Valley and The Blue Mountains

East Coast Australia – Part 4 – Brisbane & The Gold Coast
A surprisingly relaxed few days in Queensland’s capital city, a beautiful sand island excursion for some wreck snorkelling, and 24 hours in Australia’s version of Blackpool…..
East Coast Australia – Part 3 – South East Queensland
Our first overnight bus – hell for everyone except Steve due to his snoring. The world’s biggest sand island, dingos, kangaroos, everglades and a posh beach resort – South East Queensland has it all…
