Pure Joy: Driving the 2023 Suzuki Jimny
There is an undeniable halo of je ne sais quoi that surrounds the fourth generation Jimny, the little boxy anathema to the curving of the automobile, the spunky membership card to a bewildering tribe of adventurers and aesthetes who seem to share no other visible quality than a pure, unadulterated obsession with fun.
Darche Hi-View 1600 Rooftop Tent
After a couple of months touring around with the new tent on the truck, it definitely ticks all the important boxes…
James Baroud Explorer Evolution
You’d be hard pressed to find a more premium, harder-wearing design than James Baroud’s.
GEAR TESTED: MAXTRAX MKII
I’ve probably used them at least once on ever trip I’ve been on the last few years. Whether it’s sand or mud, they just work to give you traction and flotation, the two things you’re losing desperately when things go awry.
THE FREEDOM MACHINE
How the new Isuzu D-MAX LS-U can bring you the horizon.
@carlislerogers Checking out the new 5-door Jimny on Moreton Island.
Awesome rig. Longer wheelbase feels great off and on road. #littlelegend @suzukiqueensland

It's been a real honour working with the team from @oricomuhfcb and local indigenous artist Daniel Evans from @walkabout_warriors_ on the launch video for this beautiful new UHF handheld radio, the Walkabout, featuring hand-painted artwork by Daniel.
I got to spend the day with him talking about art, the medicine that the bush is for us all, and how important it is to stay connected.
Thanks to everyone at Oricom for your support and trust.
Please go check out @walkabout_warriors_ where you can learn more about Daniel's work to support youth in communities, and see more of his great artwork.
The new Walkabout is available in @supercheap_auto and @bcf.australia across Australia 👣

“The future remains uncertain and so it should, for it is the canvas upon which we paint our desires. Thus always the human condition faces a beautifully empty canvas. We possess only this moment in which to dedicate ourselves continuously to the sacred presence which we share and create.”

I don’t know what triple-oaked means. I don’t know why it’s special if my whiskey is ‘elemental aged’.
But I do know this stuff is smoother than windswept dunes.

Living the dream somewhere between Morocco and Western Australia.
Over the years, if you're serious about escapism like we are, you end up going through a lot of gear, trying out every possible permutation of each necessity and luxury against the elements.
I've come to a place now where I can use the best gear available, and it's made my journey lighter and easier.
The new Wolfpack Pro boxes from @frontrunneraustralia embody the same indestructible ethos as the Cruiser, plus they are waterproof and stackable.
I am thoroughly impressed with the @thebushcompany 270XT awning. It is everything I always wanted: simplicity to use, rugged and reliable, and easier to pack away than any other awning I've ever had.
I never thought I'd be a rooftop camper person. I love a swag. But the new Odyssey from @jamesbaroud_aunz has just about wholly converted me. It's basically everything I love about swags (airflow, protection from the elements, lightning fast setup and packdown) with a better view.
