Hey guys
We know it’s been very quiet from our end … we are still alive though and well!
We ended up having quite a hectic 2021 and are still working on overcoming some of it but it’s a new year and for us quite a big one with an international move ahead of us 💥
We left WA at the end of 2021 and got back to SA for a few weeks over Chrissy and NY and have just spent the most amazing time in Tasmania the last 6.5 weeks. This was also our last hurrah with Helgs and after 4 amazing years we will soon hand her over to new owners 🚐😥
As mentioned above: international move ahead and we will touch down in Switzerland in exactly 3 weeks from now! Very excited but we are also 💩 ourselves a little bit haha … see ya all there 🤪🤩
I’ll try to post a few more photos in the coming weeks from more epic Australian country and magical experiences we had over the last 16 months … stay tuned!
❤️❤️❤️

Thank you all so much for the Birthday love! ❤️
So much has happened for us since we left Adelaide in January! We explored heaps of new places in SA and WA, swam and snorkelled with lots of different animals, seen incredible beaches, crossed the Nullarbor, ate lots of seafood and grabbed a new job near Exmouth! 💥🚐🦭👙🦈🦐🦞🦀
Around my 40th, we had the chance to explore parts of the Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia and swim with the biggest fish on the planet, the mighty - an incredible experience! 🦈🐠🐟🐡
If you want to know where we are since late Feb, check out Sal Salis in Cape Range National Park (Sal Salis is a luxury eco camp sitting right at the edge of the Ningaloo Reef)! 😎

Happy 40th to my number 1! 🥳🎂🍸
You are the best and I love exploring this amazing country and life with you!
We made it to WA in the meanwhile - where the beaches are unreal, the sun sets over the ocean and a new job adventure awaits us very soon!
Bring on a new chapter and the middle age, we are ready and excited for it!
Thanks to everyone for sharing some bday love for the ‚old‘ boy 😉

We‘re still dreamin‘ of this area: Byfield National & Conservation Park, Stockyard Point, Five Rocks - it was absolutely 😍😎
Takes a bit of effort to get there as you have to tackle Big Sandy (a big and soft sand dune ... Helgs went up like a trooper!) but you will be rewarded with views, beaches and hardly any people ... can‘t bloody beat it, mate! 🚐🤟🏻😉

We spent a few days at Cape Palmerston National Park ... you feel the elements but what an absolute beauty! 👍🏻💨🌊
Speaking of though: this is an ode to our one and only, Helga! ❤️
She’s not just a car, she’s our home, our shelter, our best and strongest buddy, she takes us everywhere and has given us access to soooo many incredible things over nearly three years ❤️
Never underestimate the power of a 🤟🏻🚐😉

During our days in Mission Beach we jumped on the water taxi and went out Dunk Island for a day.
We felt a bit like Robinson Crusoe ... stranded on a marvellous little patch of land with as good as no one around - it was amazing!
First shot is from the lookout at Mt Kootaloo, the island’s highest point, from where we could see the sandy spit, over to Mission Beach and all the other islands around. Just epic!! 😎🏝👙
There’s also national park camping for a few bucks and the taxi over is not much, so you’re in for under 50$ a head for the night with ocean front campsite ... could you believe that places like that still exist?

Thanks , it’s been an epic adventure! 🐢😍🌴🍻
We spent the last few weeks in Far North Queensland at the marvellous Turtle Cove Resort with our mates & .bonneau2 and their team and we were given the chance to support them, amongst others for this year‘s Pride event 🌈
is Australia's only adults only LGBTQIA & allies resort and a socially inclusive venue with private beach, surrounded by tropical rainforest.
This place is absolutely unreal and we can‘t thank the boys enough for letting us in and sharing this slice of for a little while! We have met so many amazing people and we will always support the LGBTQIA community.
Sending all our to you boys, the team and all of the community - we miss you all already!
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

After all the outback dust, this was a most welcome where we set up camp for a few days and went for a swim first thing in the morning every day.
Hands down one of our favourite places in North Queensland! 🦎👙🚐

Early morning drive out of Townsville into a new chapter!
We scored a new job this week and trade the coast against the outback.
We’re on our way to in the QLD outback for our next work stint.
Due to border closures we can’t travel to Western Australia as anticipated and then this job came along and we thought: why the heck not?
So let’s do for a while - when times are a bit uncertain you just gotta be flexible 🤩🤷🏻‍♀️🦖
Stay tuned for more details soon!

Over the past few days we chased all the Aussie in the QLD 🦕🦖
It’s mind-boggling to know that some of the bones, fossils and footprints date back to more than 90 million years (!) and we are able to witness them today. And some of ‘s real-size installations are just wicked and in a fantastic setting with the outback backdrop.
It’s been really cool and we learnt heaps. I won’t go into any more details but if you are interested in any dino stuff, head out here and check it out, there’ll be lots more to come.
Cheers to & - it’s been great ! 💫

The most clear blue and flawless skies, vast and arid plains with km and km of nothing, the most bizarre things, traces of dinosaurs, extreme weather conditions, lots of different birds, endless dust and outerworldly landscapes: welcome to the Australian 🦘🐑🐂🦖🦅
While this probably does not sound overly inviting to some of you, let me tell you that we really enjoy our time out here. There is lots to explore, do and learn out here and there seems to be so much more to an outback life than what I just mentioned above (I guess it’s not for the faint-hearted 😜).
As we all know, photos never do it justice - you have to come out here and experience it for yourself, it’s truly special.

So for the first time we tried our luck at in the Queensland area to see if we can get some of that precious 🤩💎
(well, just with a bag of wash, for starters, not out in the fields!)
We were indeed lucky and found a couple of small pieces of sapphire, some and a piece of ... nothing fancy enough to work into high-grade jewellery though 😉
We also visited Australia’s biggest sapphire mine and learnt that sapphires come in all kinds of colours and not just blue and that ruby is a type of sapphire but they are very rare to find here.
It certainly was a unique experience - as well as always plenty of special characters and surroundings in those areas to say the very least ... 🤪🤑🙊

And that’s a wrap - thanks heaps Rainbow for the good times and all the great legends we met and had the pleasure to work with! 🌈😍
After 9 months (5 months of work with and 4 months of forced Corona shizzle), it‘s time for us to move on again. 🚐🤩
As of this week we are back to exploring the beauty of QLD so stay tuned for more things to come!
