In this episode, we’re chatting with our intrepid traveller Penny, who is on the trip of a lifetime around Australia with her family!
After setting off in August 2023 for a 5-month road trip around the country, Penny and her family are discovering parts of Australia that they’ve never been to before, encountering different languages and cultures, and experiencing all the fun, challenges and practical considerations of travelling with a camper trailer in tow.
