Life in the rainforest isn't necessarily what you might expect
Our latest blog post.
We have now been on Cape York (this time around) since June last year & will be here in the rainforest close to Lockhart River until after the next wet season. This is our latest Blog post.

Great read Cuppa, you certainly have to endure a lot of challenges but are rewarded some incredible experiences.
Chilli Beach is still one of my favourite places I have ever visited.

Heard interview live on Friday afternoon while on Fraser Island. Plenty of tailor at present.
Well spoken Cuppa.
At the end of the day, all you have is yourself and all you need is your friends (and in our case our Patrol)
