Look, if you're after travel stories that involve five-star resorts or setups that look like they belong in a magazine, you're definitely in the wrong place.
The stories here are real stories from the road - the ones where I'm trying to navigate roads in the Top End of the country that aren't quite where the map says they are, pulling into free camps just as the light's fading and hoping there's actually space, or working things out as I go along (usually after taking a spectacularly wrong turn somewhere).
Some posts are practical, some become a bit personal, and all of them are what actually happened. No filters, no making it sound better than it was, no editing out the bits where I questioned all my life choices while trying not to cry in a Bunnings car park.
These are about the road as it really happens. The challenging bits, as well as those magical moments when everything just feels right for no reason you can explain.
