Visiting Litchfield National Park

Venturing out of the Kakadu wilderness, we were about to enter our first capital city in a while, Darwin. We didn’t know a great deal about the place, other than it was supposed to be hot and humid and it definitely lived up to its reputation! Driving into the city, you definitely felt the military…

Visiting Kakadu National Park

It was time to visit arguably Australia’s most famous National Park, Kakadu! Heading further North, we started to notice dry scrub turning into lush bushland and pockets of wetlands started to appear. In saying that, the heat outside continued to be scorching and we were looking forward to the waterfalls and waterholes ahead! Our first…

A guide to the Gibb River Road, WA

It was finally time to put the troopy through its first extended off-road adventure, the renowned Gibb River Road. Our first tip for travelling the Gibb, is that if you are entering from the West, we advise stocking up in Broome rather than Derby. We took the second option and the Woolworths was very poorly…

Photo of the week #11

Another waterfall photo as our pic of the week! This was taken at Maguk waterfall in Kakadu National Park after we had taken a quick dip in the water. We were a little nervous at the thought of freshwater crocodiles, but still took the plunge! I really like this photo as Lauren looks like she’s…

Photo of the week #10

Apologies for missing more than a few weeks, can’t promise it won’t happen again though! But, hopefully you enjoy this capture from our time spent in the Northern Territory. I like this photo as it captures the joy we feel every time we finish a bush walk and it ends in a waterfall or swimming…

Karijini, WA

It was time to head inland after almost a month on the coast and we were excited, as we had heard good things about Karijini National Park! Leaving Exmouth, we missed out on staying at the renowned Buralla Station, as it was fully booked. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as there…

Exmouth, WA

Given our dwindling supplies, we though it might be a good idea to check into the renowned holiday town of Exmouth to resupply. Exmouth is an interesting town, we thought that it would be much larger and more built up than it is, but it’s kind of good that it hasn’t and still retains its…

Photo of the week #8

Back again for my favourite photo this week! This shot was in Karijini National Park and more specially Dales Gorge. This day of exploring gorges was probably one of our favourite days of the trip so far and I think this picture captures that. We couldn’t wipe the smiles off our faces when looking around…

Photo of the week #4
Back again with another photo of the week! Again, this comes from our trip up the coast to Shark Bay, specifically on the drive back home. As we were driving down the highway, we saw that the sunset was going to be a beautiful one and immediately turned down the next side road. This lead…

Esperance Region

After making it across the desert and scrub of the Nullarbor, you better believe it was a relief when the scenery changed to the blue water and white sandy beaches of Esperance! We had booked an Airbnb to treat ourselves after roughing it since leaving Adelaide, but for our first night we decided on a…
