Being born and raised in the country around Boonah QLD, I have always had a love for the outdoors, especially camping and fishing, which have been a part of my life since I was young, even growing up and completing my carpentry apprenticeship before moving on to work in other trades and industries, I used to dream of getting away to find the best campsite and go fishing, and now I am looking forward to traveling Australia with Mandi in our caravan. The idea of exploring new locations and landscapes and experiencing the beauty of nature, including magical sunrises and sunsets, has always excited me, and now I can't wait to travel full time and enjoy life on the road as a semi grey nomad, and exploring new areas. From the beach to the bush, there is so much to see and do, with new fishing locations, new campsites, and new meals to cook in the camp oven on the fire, I am so keen to take on this adventure and create lasting memories while enjoying the freedom of life on the open road.
I was Born in Far North Queensland, then grew up in and around Brisbane, where I have always considered myself a city girl. However, recently and after many camping and caravaning trips with Brad over the past few years, I have developed a new love for the countryside and the outback, and the wide open spaces. As a chef by trade and a lover of the beach, I never would have thought I would come to love being away from it all as much as I do, and cant wait for our next getaway to another amazing campsite, and also to live in our caravan on the road full time. I often find myself seeking the next adventure and getting away from the hustle and bustle of city life. I also love fishing and catching more and bigger fish than Brad, with both of us being so competitive it always turns into a competition and we have lots of laughs together even though I always win. My passion for cooking and my newfound appreciation for nature and the bush have allowed me to find a balance between the two worlds, and I am excited to see where this new journey will take me and us together.
Our home on wheels
G'day I'm Brad
G'day I'm Mandi
This is our rig and our set up, and soon to be our home on wheels wherever we park it. Our tow vehicle is a 2017 Isuzu Dmax space cab with a custom built canopy on the tray, and quite a few mods to set it up for touring including GVM upgrade, and a custom lithium battery with solar set up to power a fridge and other accessories. Our caravan is a 2015 Jayco Starcraft Outback 16.51-3 which has a Cruisemaster independent suspension ATM upgrade, and a large custom lithium battery and additional solar setup with an inverter to power everything that we will ever need, and allows us to be Off the Grid indefinitely, as long as we have sunshine, which is always nice to have on any caravaning or camping trip.
