Here and there: Twenty Seven - Brighton, South Australia

This is a really cool location and even cooler because it's so bloody close to my house, although there was a time it might as well have been on the moon. The problem

Here and there: Twenty Six - Above Australia

Here and there: Twenty Four - Flight Part two

Here and there: Twenty Two - Outback South Australia (Two)

Camping in remote places is something I'm very comfortable with; I have no fear or worry about being in remote and far away places, I thrive in them. I love the

Here and there: Twenty One - Outback South Australia (One)

I've spent a lot of time in outback South Australia; I feel comfortable there with no one else for hundreds of kilometres and the need to be self reliant, prepared

Here and there: Twenty - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Here and there: Eighteen - Northern Territory, Australia
