  • Halls Gap | Australia :: The Grampians National Park

    Halls Gap | Australia :: The Grampians National Park

    On our way back to Melbourne, we stopped a night at the Grampians National Park, a huge forest of gum trees with abundant wildlife and years of aboriginal history. Apparently, hundreds of koalas make their home in this forest, but we were yet to see any of them, they were really difficult to find! [...]

  • Melbourne | Australia :: Jucy Campervan Review

    Melbourne | Australia :: Jucy Campervan Review

    We were totally spoiled with the Toyota Hi Top Hiace in Tasmania and grimaced when we saw the limited space in the Jucy Toyoto Previa Campervan. Terry couldn’t even sit up in the back without poking his head out of the sun roof and his feet were dangling off the bed for the entire [...]

    Melbourne | Australia :: The Great Ocean Road

    If you have some extra time while visiting Melbourne, definitely take a road trip on the Great Ocean Road. You can either rent your own vehicle or campervan or take a one day guided tour from Melbourne. Spectacular scenery and cute little coastal towns are scattered along the road as well as some of [...]

  • Tasmania | Australia :: Britz Campervan Tour & Review

    Tasmania | Australia :: Britz Campervan Tour & Review

    We had no idea what to book for campervans, had no suggestions from others and since it was the busy season and relatively urgent, we pretty much blindly booked a vehicle a few months before our arrival with Britz. The administration and paperwork at the office was a nightmare at 8am and the company [...]

  • Tasmania | Australia :: Campervaning 8 Days In Tasmania

    Tasmania | Australia :: Campervaning 8 Days In Tasmania

    We had heard that Tasmania was a place not to miss when you are down under, so we spent a week on the island driving around in a hi-top campervan, the spacious Toyota HiAce. We figured it would be the best way to see the island, but totally overlooked that not only did Terry have to [...]

  • Melbourne | Australia :: Things To Do In Melbourne

    Melbourne | Australia :: Things To Do In Melbourne

    Australia’s second largest city, Melbourne (3.7 million people), is an extremely “liveable” city offering a plethora of activities, arts and a lively café culture. We experienced rain, extreme heat, humidity and cool breezes in a span of an hour – it is commonly said that if you don’t like the weather in Melbourne, just wait [...]

    Melbourne | Australia :: Melbourne Central YHA Review

    This award winning hostel was one of our favorites. The common rooms, kitchens (a little small, but one on each floor) and bathrooms were spotless and recently renovated, the beds were comfortable and long (enough for Terry’s long legs not to stick out from the covers!), awesome rooftop views equipped with BBQs, and a helpful [...]
