As we adventure Aus

09/10/2025

In this weeks episode on our YouTube channel, we kick things off driving high up into the hills of the Hinterland, we really push the Ranger to its limits, but we keep a close eye on our temps and take it nice and slow to the top.

We do a quick stop in Brisbane to get our canopy looked at, then we head back out to the hills to a town called Tamborine.

Grab yourself a drink and settle in to this week’s adventures as we tick off another must see place, and we go on the hunt in Chris Hemsworth territory, lol! We also stumble across the most amazing sight up on Mount Tamborine, you don’t want to miss this!

In this weeks episode over on our YouTube channel, we head to a few Hipcamps as we head down the East coast of Queensland. We are traveling a little faster than usual because we have arranged to meet up with friends, you’ll see that in next week’s video.

We also have some expensive maintenance work on the car to deal with, it hits us quite hard in the bank balance but we believe it’s important and needed to be done. Darren heads into Mackay for the day alone to sort the car and does a bit of solo exploring in the area to while away the time until he hears back from the garage.

There are quite a few exciting stops along the way in this episode, so grab yourself a drink and get comfortable and settle into this week’s adventures.

As always, don’t forget to drop us a like, and if you aren’t already, we would really appreciate if you would subscribe to our channel, its free to do so and will help us so much. Nearly 50% of our weekly viewers are not subscribed, each video we put together takes many, many hours of work to be able to post videos for you guys each week so we would really appreciate the support.

Recently we were honored to be invited to take part in a podcast with Annette from and where we talk about full time travel with a dog, hints and tips along the way, and the driving force behind this trip, which is the devastating loss of our daughter just over two and a half years ago.

The audio is live on Libsyn and is distributed to Apple Podcasts, Spotify and a stack of other podcast platforms. I have also added a link in the comments to make it easier for you.

Annette writes ‘ This Aussie road trip story started with a camper trailer. Then a caravan. Then a year that changed everything.

Rachel and Darren known online as As We Adventure Aus have packed up their lives in Perth and hit the road on an 18-month lap of Australia.

But their journey wasn’t just about ticking off iconic destinations. It was born from heartbreak, built with purpose, and fuelled by something a lot deeper than wanderlust.

I was lucky enough to sit down with them for one of the most honest, heartfelt, and moving chats I’ve had on Big Lap Chats. We covered everything from off-grid upgrades and Starlink setups to grief, resilience and how to keep going when life throws you the unthinkable.’

Thanks so much to Annette for inviting us to do the podcast. If you would like to watch it, the episode is also live on Big Lap Chats on YouTube.

Camping at the top of a random hill in the middle of outback Queensland is definitely going to be one of our many high points (pun intended 😆) of this trip. Especially as it was completely unexpected.

What’s was going to be a one night pullover stop, turned into 3 days and nights at one of the most beautiful outlooks we’ve seen, perfectly positioned for an epic sunset at the end of every day, who’d have thought it!
