off to aussie and in paticular victoria for 6 weeks.son living in melbourne, so when he goes to work on mondays i am off camping monday to friday.like to buy a trailer or something of that nature, but need all the equipment to go with it. hoping to persuade son to put a tow bar on the next car. the off road ideas are great, but so much choice. so camping for the time being
Enjoy your time over ther. You may find camping gear is a bit on the dear side in Oz, but if you regiser with Poms in Oz forums, you'll get a lot of detailed info.

------------- Some days you are the dog,
some days you are the tree.
My daughter has travelled twice to Australia and both times bought a camper then resold it on her return.
There's places near the airport that cater for backpackers and travellers. Keep your eyes peeled and you may get a bargain.
i have packed a vango force ten, as this will stand up to storm and is a robust tent and easy to put up for moving on regular.
i am doing this on my own, so its a adventure for me.would like to people with 4wd for more offroad journeys, but i will have to get out on the road first.
looking into driving motorhomes back from the area holiday motorhomers leave them. they give a petol allowance and sometimes a generous amount of time to return, so i will see if it is viable when i get over there
