ExploreOz Allan and Jess on sail boat in Darwin Harbour

"Live the life you love"

Hi, we’re Allan and Jess, and we’re traveling full-time around Australia in our 2019 Mitsubishi Triton and 2006 Goldstream caravan. What began as a road trip in May 2021 has blossomed into a three-year (and counting) journey across the rugged outback and serene coastal shores of this beautiful country.

Our mission? To Explore, Share, and Educate while fully enjoying life on the road. We’re committed to being open and transparent about everything we do, and we’re always happy to help fellow travelers. We aim to inspire others to embrace their own adventures, sharing stunning landscapes and unique experiences along the way.

Got questions or need travel advice? Reach out anytime—we’re here for you!

Each month, we donate 10% of our @youtube ad revenue to a charity, and for the month of October, we chose the Royal Flying Doctor Service (@royalflyingdoc). ✈️💙

We’re excited to share that this month’s donation amounts to $45.20!
RFDS plays a crucial role in providing emergency medical care to people in remote areas across Australia, where access to healthcare is limited. They truly do life-saving work, and we’re proud to support their efforts.

We couldn’t do this without your continued support—thank you for watching, commenting, and being part of our journey! 🙏

If you’d like to learn more about the RFDS or how you can help, check out their website. Every little bit helps make a huge difference.

It wasn’t the destination we planned, but it’s the one we needed. A crackling fire, Jess with her book, and a stunning Spear Creek sunset—it’s moments like these that prove everything happens for a reason.

Friday check-in time! 🚗
This week, we’re parked in Port Augusta, getting the Triton serviced. Huge shoutout to the incredible staff at @mitsubishiaust Port Augusta for their top-notch service—so grateful! 🙌

Since we’re not out exploring right now, we’d love to hear from YOU. Drop a comment and let us know where you are today—and if you’ve got any bucket list spots we should add to our adventures, let us know!

That quiet moment when the sun dips below the horizon, painting the world in soft golds and deep blues. 🌅✨
The sound of gentle waves, the cool sand underfoot, and the stillness that settles over everything—it’s pure magic.

Sunsets like these remind us to pause, breathe, and just be. 🌊💛

What’s your favorite part of a beach sunset?

#exploreoz #neverstopexploring

📍Perlubie Beach, @southaustralia — where mornings begin with dreamy pastel sunrises over white sands and tranquil waters. Staying in our @goldstreamrv right on the beach felt like a front-row seat to nature’s masterpiece. This peaceful gem on the @eyrepeninsula is perfect for relaxing or adventuring, offering a pristine escape from the everyday. Swipe through to see the sunrise, our classic caravan, and why this place should be on your travel list! 🌅✨ Where’s your favorite spot to wake up to a view like this?

A couple of years ago, we were at Fowlers Bay and Jess landed her very first squid off the jetty. Fast forward to yesterday, and we were back for another go—this time, Jess landed an absolute monster! 🦑
I can’t even put into words how proud and stoked I am for her! 😁🙌 That smile says it all—this moment was pure gold! ✨ She absolutely crushed it! 💪🎉
P.s. I’ll probably get in trouble with Jess for posting this photo, but it’s worth it!

🌍 Friday Check-In! 🌧️
Greetings from Perlubie Beach in @southaustralia! The weather might not be ideal, but we’re still soaking up the serenity of this stunning spot. 🌊

Where are you tuning in from today? Are you out exploring or dreaming of your next adventure? Share your current location or that one bucket-list destination you can’t wait to visit! ✨

Let’s inspire each other to keep discovering this amazing world. Drop your comments below—never stop exploring! 🗺️

Our plans have changed, and we’re totally okay with it 👌🏻
One of the biggest lessons from life on the road? Staying flexible and embracing the unexpected. Sometimes things work out better than we imagined, other times… not so much.

We originally planned to stay in Western Australia for the rest of the year, but we’ve had to switch things up. It’s all for a very exciting reason, and we can’t wait to share it with you. But for now, we’ll keep you guessing. 😉

🌅 Mornings like these at Ellendale Pool Free Camp 🫶✨ Jess out on her paddle board, coffee in hand, soaking in the magic of the calm water and perfect reflections. There’s nothing quite like the quiet moments when it’s just you, the water, and the peaceful sounds of nature 🌊☕️

About Ellendale Pool:
* Located east of Geraldton, WA
* Stunning free camp with a tree-lined pool and rugged cliffs

Here ya go everyone, have a photo of some cows. Why?
Well… because we couldn’t find a way to post this photo with anything else and we like the photo 🤣

The 4WD self-drive track at @wooramelriverretreat is not just about adventure—it’s a journey back in time. A highlight of the track is the 100-year-old shearing shed, built around 1912 using materials shipped from England and America to Gladstone Port. These were hauled inland by bullock drays to construct the shed on the southern side of the property, close to the port for easy wool shipping. 🐑✨

This strategic placement came with challenges—moving sheep from the northern paddocks to the shed could take up to a month, followed by another month of shearing. With 12 stands, the shed employed a full team, including shearers, rouseabouts, and classers, who could shear up to 2,000 sheep daily. At its peak, the station ran between 38,000 to 45,000 Merino sheep.

Though the shed was last used in 2006 when the station transitioned to Damara/Dorper breeds that don’t require shearing, it still holds the stories of those bustling shearing days. Pack a picnic and explore the track as it takes you from the coastline along the river, across the highway, through windmill trails, and back to the homestead. 🚜

Happy Friday everyone! 🤗
It’s a public holiday long weekend for most of Australia, so let’s celebrate by sharing some adventure! Let us know where you’re at and what makes it awesome! 🌏

If someone posts a spot you’ve been to, jump in with your thoughts, let’s inspire each other with epic bucket list ideas! 😁

We’re finishing up a house sit this weekend in Carnarvon, but yesterday we explored around the incredible Cactus farm on the fruit loops scenic trail (find it on @wikicamps ).
Can’t wait to see where everyone else is and what you’re up to! 🙌

🚨 Solar panel SOS! 🚨 Our faithful Kings solar panel has finally waved goodbye after four rough years! 😩
We’re on the hunt for something compact and lightweight for our caravan—and that can give our Triton a boost too! ⚡️
What’s your go-to? Hit us with your best recommendations! 🙌✨

We want to answer any questions you have 👌🏻👍🏻

It’s the most expensive part about travel, but we try not to think about it 😂

Probably one of our favourite things about being on the road, we can wake up somewhere different everyday 😍

Have you ever been somewhere that has been so hyped up that it just didn’t hit the mark?
Spa Pool in Hamersley Gorge Karijini National Park was exactly that for us. We know that’s going to be an unpopular opinion…HOWEVER, there is so much more in the gorge to experience.
Instead of heading straight to the “tourist destination” Spa Pool, enjoy a float downstream through the stunning rock formations and immerse yourself in the feeling of drifting back through time.
But that’s just our thoughts 😉
