I am 16 years old (as of 2025), I am currently studying in VCE on the Mornington peninsula. I enjoy the outdoors and am studying Outdoor and Environmental studies 3+4, and over the course of my studies I have developed a loving for the outdoors. I want to explore as much as I can, when I can. I would love to be able to map my life’s journeys to share my experiences to my children and to the world.
My name is Jules - I love rock climbing, surfing and exploring, so I love any chance I have to go hike a new trail or climb a new route. My partner and I are very adventurous and often find ourselves road-tripping or going on multi-day hikes. We would like to share our favourite places that we explore and help maintain to keep a clean and healthy World.
Hey! I'm Bek, a 100% true Tasmanian. Those whose feet have never touched the balmy waters of Tassie reckon it's a bit of a dead place, but I tell you what, this little island has everything you need in a 160km radius. Having lived here for over 18 years I pride myself in being a young, but seasoned, local tour guide.
I am a seeker of adventure, exploration and new experiences. My partner and I spent years travelling all around Australia living in the back of our 4x4, working along the way. We currently live on an island in Queensland where we are renovating a house and spend almost every weekend on the water in the bay. We escape to the mainland to spread our wings before returning to the peace and solitude of our small island.
My wife and I are both teachers who love to travel and explore. Our love of camping was one of the things that brought us together as teenagers. Now with a two year old daughter we bought a caravan to travel further.
And I'm happy to be in Australia. I'm dreaming of doing this trip for almost 5 years. To see all the amazing birds of Australia and the beautiful nature where they live in.
Gary Jackson, Lisa and their young-adult children are overland campers lucky enough to be living just a stone’s throw from one of Australia’s premier four wheel drive destinations, the Victorian High Country.
Every opportunity is taken to head bush away from busy work and school life to seek out remote secluded campsite destinations. Gary and Lisa’s day job is running their successful bicycle store, Riviera Cycles which they established back in 1995. When not working or camping, you’ll find Gary on a Mountain Bike somewhere on the trails of East Gippsland.
We are Kacey and Kyle, two young and adventurous humans who love to explore and find the world's best kept secrets! Our love for travelling runs deep, after both travelling different parts of Australia and the world for most of our lives. While still working our 9-5 jobs as a teacher and a chippy, we use our weekends and holidays to “stay off track”. After going on a few trips over the last 8 years together we decided to create “Staying Off Track”, a page to share our adventures with our friends and family, little did we know this would soon become a place where we share these trips with the world!
Who is Candice? Well, that probably depends on who you ask! To my husband I am a farmer’s wife. To my daughter I am a Mum. To my friends and family I am a crazy horse lady that is more at home in a saddle than anywhere else in world...but to me, I’m a day dreamer. I could lay in the sunshine and watch a spider spin his web for hours. I take great pleasure watching the beauty of the world while most hurry through life missing the little miracles that happen all around us each day.
Hey I am Xana, an ICU trained travel nurse. I was feeling a bit stagnant in my job so I decided to take a massive plunge, quit my full time job and pursue travel nursing. COVID ruined my international plans but I wasn’t going to let it stop me travelling Aus!
I absolutely love the flexibility, freedom and lifestyle of being a travel nurse. I have a 4WD and a rooftop tent that allows me to travel whilst I'm in between contracts and also explore some amazing places! Whilst travelling I met Jess and we decided to combine forces and start an amazing platform for other travel nurses to provide information, stories and general fun!
Hey my name is Jess and I am known as the nomad travel nurse. A few years ago, I got my heart broken and I decided to sit down and focus on a “bucket list journey”. I spent weeks having a BIG think about what I wanted to do in life and then I decided to give myself 18 months to tick of 20 of my own personal bucket list goals.
I have ticked close to 20 now and loving life. This started my big adventure as a travel nurse (as this was a bucket list goal), and now I travel around Australia doing contracts, exploring and meeting some INCREDIBLE people. I created a website with my buddy Xana, and it focuses on all things travelling, nursing, relationships and creating your own bucket list journey.
Hi, I'm Damian and I am the creator of Go-Roadtrip. I'm an outdoor enthusiast that spends most of my time indoors. Work that out! My trade is graphic design and I love creating visual comms for my clients. Graphics, websites and videos.
I created Go-Roadtrip as a side project in 2019 after I saw a decline in my workload. I'd recently done 2 stints as a head brewer in two breweries. Making beer was an awesome experience and a great departure from staring at a computer most of my day. During my time at the breweries I created scratch maps and sold them here online. The idea really took off.
