G day folks have been sniffing around now for a little while ,thought I'd better say hello to everyone. I live on the South Coast of NSW at Kiama, nice little sea change after 30 years paying my dues in the hustle and bustle of Sydney. We are a family of four , a dog called Marlee,and I've a new 2011 Colarado towing a 2001 Jayco Eagle offroad.
I'm currently preparing for a 5-6 week trip inland to Broken Hill, possibly going to Uluru , looping through Charleville and south  back home again. Will post some pictures of my rig soon and look forward to catching up . Cheers Stu

Hey stu

I know a bloke in Kiama that started a big trip like that then got a job,moved to Kiama had 2 kids sold his boat bought a camper and started talking about going on a big trip.

Welcome Stu

There's a few of us from Kiama who have done the same sort of thing. I'm towing a 2010 Jayco Swan Outback with a Landcruiser. There's some good info with friendly people on this site.  :cheers:

Regards

G day Ivan life  has a funny way of taking us in circles, who knows what job offers may arise out yonder, maybe I could put my skills to test in one of the so called boom towns. Sell the camper buy a bigger boat and start all over again. That dream may take a bit of working with the good wife. Hi Cammo plenty of black Douglas in that Swan I presume?
It is a bit of a novelty leaving a holiday destination that some people pay large amounts of money to rent a house or camp at and avoid the so called crowds. thanks for the welcome guys now which GPS should I buy?

Hey stu
You should have bought a pajero, mine came with one and it looks pretty cool sprayed with mud

Ps I agree hard to find a better place to holiday than where we live, but worth a try. I'm considering Frazer island in October with a week each way to get there and back :cheers:

HI Stu we lived in Kiama for 30 years, I still work a couple of days there, we now live in Berry, Kiama's only downside is that the word is out as to how great a place it is to live there and the hills.  We have just had our Pinnacle hard top camper delivered after a couple of major problems with it so hope to get out and about soon.  Enjoy your trip, it sounds great, and your life in Kiama.  Regards Janine and Dennis
