25,000km Around Australia | Our 2nd Year Living in a Tiny Caravan

What is the reality of traveling Australia full time for two years? From remote bush camps to mechanical breakdowns and health scares, we share the honest highs and lows of our 25,000 km journey. Embarking on a massive loop around the continent sounds like a dream, but keeping a Land Cruiser and a compact Stockman Rover on the road requires constant maintenance, resilience, and adaptability. In this two-year review, we look back at the incredible destinations we reached, alongside the practical challenges that rarely make it to the glossy social media feeds. ============================= 🧳What you will learn in this update: ============================= Real-World Gear Testing: How the Stockman Rover and Land Cruiser suspension held up over 25,000 km of corrugations. On-the-Road Diagnostics: Troubleshooting limp mode, smoking brakes, and unexpected master cylinder leaks in remote areas. Emergency Preparedness: How we managed evacuation alerts for outback bushfires and a Category 5 cyclone. Health & Travel: Managing severe medical issues, including spinal fractures and infections, while living off-grid. Hidden Gems: Highlights from Cape Arid, Karijini National Park, and our favorite beach camps. ============= ⏱️Timestamps: ============= 0:00 - Traveling Australia: Our Two-Year Review 1:05 - Darwin Campfires & Robin Falls 1:47 - Land Cruiser & Stockman Rover Wear & Tear 2:42 - Managing Smoking Brakes & Steering 3:10 - Upgrading Seats & Fixing Limp Mode 4:22 - Outback Weather & Water Transfers 5:18 - Managing Spine Fractures on the Road 6:12 - DIY Shocks & Suspension Repair 8:31 - Marine Wildlife & Cow Encounters 11:03 - Bushfire Smoke & Driving Blind 12:20 - Stockman Rover V1 vs V2 Setup 13:06 - Troubleshooting Brakes & Stove Gas Leaks 14:18 - Extreme 43°C Heat & Evacuation Warning 16:10 - Managing Eye Infections in the Bush 17:05 - Limp Mode Again & Salt Lake Driving 18:41 - Quick Fixes: Perished Water Tank Hose 19:56 - Cape Arid Rain & Beach Camps 22:20 - Emergency Ice Cream Stick Splint 23:23 - Installing a New Awning in 40°C Heat 24:16 - Snorkeling South Lefroy & Whale Sharks 25:36 - Getting Stuck in Soft Sand 26:05 - Evacuating for a Category 5 Cyclone 27:18 - Hospitalization, Recovery & Housesitting 28:00 - Off-Road Mud & Mysterious Car Noises 29:47 - Karijini National Park Gorges 30:15 - Final Year-Two Repairs & Medical Checkups 🛰️ Special offer for our viewers: If you buy a Starlink, you will get a free month through this referral!
