A Great Barrier Reef Finale to Australia
Blog: Wanderlust - 29 June 2010
Driving on Fraser Island After spending almost two full weeks in the small city of Cairns, I had no other choice but to leave. If it wasn’t for my booked flight to New Zealand in less than 48 hours, chances are I would have stuck around for an additional two weeks. There isn’t much to [...]

There’s sand in my bellybutton. Fraser Island, Australia
Blog: Chronicles of a year-long break-up - 10 May 2010
It’s hard to pinpoint the exact moment when we decided that the world-famous Whitsundays had nothing on Fraser Island. It could have been on our first day when, after a long sweaty morning of tackling potholed dirt tracks in a 4×4 with no suspension, we finally reached Lake Wabby. At the end of a long [...]

First Timers Expectations of Australia
Blog: Vagabond3 - 19 March 2010
To say that I’ve experienced Sydney would be an understatement; I was given a truly once in a lifetime experience exploring the city in ways many of the natives haven’t. It was like a James Bond movie- the three of us were escorted from hotel to car to sea plane to boat all to just [...]

A Little Sand…Nine Women Pushing a 4WD
Blog: A Little Adrift - A RTW Travelogue - 31 December 2009
Here’s a fun fact you may have never known – when you push a car out of deep sand, you can actually fall on your face once the car starts moving. Fun fact. I’m all for women power – ra ra, equality, ra ra – but that doesn’t mean that I don’t believe that there are times men come in handy. Instance number one when it’s nice to have a man around? When you’re on Fraser Island (on Australia’s East Coast) and your huge 4WD vehicle is mired deep into incredibly ...

A Little Serenade…Six Songs for a Happy Birthday!
Blog: A Little Adrift - A RTW Travelogue - 28 December 2009
So there I am, a year ago today, sweaty, sand is in every single possible crevice of my body, the cake I bought completely melting all over the makeshift table, and yet the moment is precisely right as twenty-four backpackers serenade me with the Happy Birthday song in six different languages. We were all on a three day camping/driving/sandy adventure of Fraser Island, Australia (more on that tomorrow) and as my luck would have it I was hitting the quarter of a century mark. Birthdays on the road are a ...

Should we bother with Fraser Island?
Blog: A Travel Around the World - 14 November 2009
Our plan was to reach perhaps the most popular attraction on the drive up to Cairns listed by Unesco as World Heritage Site and being the world largest sand island, you know already what I am talking about: it’s Fraser Island.

Fraser Island
Blog: Where is Rob? - 8 July 2009
Fraser Island is one of the world’s biggest sand islands and can be found just off the east coast of Australia a few hours from Brisbane. I did a 3 day, 2 nights 4WD self drive around the island with 9 other people to see what the island had to offer. For a change I thought I would just upload a load of pictures from my time at Fraser Island and just add a little caption to each photo. However in [[ This is a content summary only.
