The Big Lap at 83 Begins | You’re Never Too Old to Travel Australia

Описание: At 83 years old, I’m towing a small camper trailer 12,500 kilometres around Australia with my dog Biscuit — to prove you’re never too old to have a go.

After losing my wife to lung cancer, I thought my travelling days were over. But life has a way of surprising you. With a simple camper trailer, my Corolla Cross, and a slightly stubborn determination to keep living fully, Biscuit and I are setting off on the ultimate Australian road trip — The Big Lap.

This channel is about real travel for everyday Australians, especially those in their 60s, 70s and 80s who still have dreams but may wonder if the time has passed.

No extreme adventures.
No luxury motorhomes.
No 4WD expeditions.

Just practical, achievable travel around Australia — staying on the blacktop, using caravan parks, meeting good people in small towns, and rediscovering the simple joy of the open road.

Along the way I’ll share:

🚐 Preparing for the Big Lap
🐾 Travelling with my dog Biscuit
🚲 Taking my fat-tyre e-trike around Australia
📷 Learning to fly my DJI Mini 4 Pro drone (new tricks for old dogs!)
🏕 Camper trailer setup and practical travel tips
🇦🇺 The incredible places and people that make Australia special

If you’ve ever said “one day I’ll do that trip”, maybe this channel will remind you that one day can be today.

If you enjoy the journey, please consider subscribing, liking, and saying g’day in the comments.

Ooroo,
