A 3-month journey of self discovery made between February and May 2004; time to walk, time to stay, time to contemplate. This diary describes a 630 km walk down the south coast of New South Wales from Sydney to Mallacoota. In our view it is one of the most diverse and picturesque stretches of coastline in the world.
Describes 26 tramps covering 1200 km in New Zealand, walked between September 2004 and April 2005. These include all 8 "Great Walks of New Zealand" and cover a range of landscapes, from alpine ridges and deep glacial valleys to lush beech forest and isolated and rugged coastlines.
A 230 km walk from the top of Fraser Island to Noosa in November 2005, exploring the landscapes of the world's largest sand island and the nearby Cooloola Section of the Great Sandy National Park.

Describes over 850 km of treks and shorter hikes in Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador, plus the odd trip by bike, 4WD and boat, as we wend our way northwards up the Andean chain and then follow it back to the tip of Patagonia between March and December 2007.

Coming soon from December 2008 to January 2009. Combines some classic tourism to archaeological sites, cities and other attractions, with some treks to sample the superb landscapes and visit the hill tribes of Vietnam.
