to that time Leisa’s brother was living in Bamaga, FNQ, and we went up to visit. With the actual Tip of Australia just up the road, he told us,
“I’ll take you to The Tip!”

We were all geared up for the big moment to finally stand at the northernmost point of the country.

Instead, he drove us to the Bamaga garbage dump.
Yep. The other tip.

Cue confused stares and a very glamorous photo next to the dump sign.

We did eventually make it to the real Tip but this moment was unforgettable for totally different reasons.

Our relationship with Lifestyle Campers kicked off way back in September 2007. We picked up our very first camper, a Lifestyle 360, and within a week, we were hauling it up to Cape York.

Fast forward to now, and we’re rolling in the Lifestyle Reconn R2 SE. We did have a brief fling with a ModCon FF1 in between, but honestly, Lifestyle Campers just feels like home. It would be a hard sell to get us to move away now.

Who else has stuck with a camper or caravan brand through the years? What made you stay or switch?

📍Pwakkenbak / Mt Barker Lookout . This is a great spot to get your bearings and soak up the views before exploring the Stirling and Porongurup Ranges.

Sitting 404m up, you’ll score sweeping views of farmland, bushland, and two epic ranges (Koi Kyenunu-ruff + Borongur). On a clear day, you can even spot the coast in the distance.

From the Rotary Club lookout, looking north you can see the wind farm and Mondurup Reserve, east to Porongurup’s ridge, and south toward Mt Manypeaks and the ocean. Head down the nearby boardwalk for a stunning look at Mt Lindesay and the Walpole Wilderness to the southwest.

Bonus: there’s a mountain bike trailhead close by if you’re keen.

Easy access, epic views, and plenty of info signs to help you make sense of it all. Definitely worth the detour.

We are seriously considering rebranding to Bakery Tours of Australia because apparently, we can’t roll into a town without checking out the local bakery.

Perhaps our tag line could be “Some people chase waterfalls, we chase sourdough and vanilla slices” .

A bakery worth mentioning is the Mount Barker Country Bakery where we may or may not have left with an obscene amount of baked goods..

Anyone else judge a town by the quality of its pies? Or is that just us?

Tell us your must-stop bakeries below…..for our “research.” , of course.

If you’re looking for a low-key spot to camp around Denmark, WA, we can recommend Duckett Mill Winery. ( no surprise to those who have been following our page over the last few days)

There’s no powered sites or full amenities, just a flat spot to pull up near the cellar door and access to a toilet 24/7. No showers, so you’ll need to be self-contained.

There’s another site further into the vineyard that we would have love to tried out as it’s amongst the vines.

While you’re there, don’t skip the Chardonnay. It is the best Chardonnay Leisa has ever had.

Great little stop if you’re happy with basic camping and like your wine within walking distance.

Duckett Mill Winery isn’t just for wine lovers. Heck, Matt does not even drink alcohol. But the tree-lined driveway at Duckett Mill Winery and Denmark Farmhouse Cheese is worth a stop for those who love photography. The contrast, light, and natural framing make it a great spot for photography, especially in the early morning or late afternoon. Bring your tripod for this long exposures.

We camped there for one sunset and one sunrise and it gave us the opportunity to shoot in different light. Plus, did we mention the cellar door is just a short walk from the camp area?

Definitely one to keep in mind if you like combining photography with a relaxed and simple campsite. Denmark Farmhouse Cheese

What do you use as an alarm clock when camping?

We’ve got the Boxer Clock—specifically the Ivy model. It comes with no snooze button, boxer breath set to “intense,” and a cold wet nose placed precisely 2mm from your face. So relentless it is guaranteed to get you up

We’ve just realised something…

Matt’s beard and Ivy’s muzzle are now exactly the same shade of distinguished grey.

Is this what they mean when they say owners start to look like their dog?

So, who suits the grey better?

We are thinking of starting a photo album called “Views from my Camper Window” and start the album off with this photo of the sunrise over the vines of Duckett Mill Winery.
