We are the Williams family - and we’ve thrown caution to the wind and made our retirement ‘pipe dream’ of travelling Australia a reality in our 30’s - setting off on indefinite travels in January 2019.
As a young family, we have always enjoyed escaping the fast pace of standard suburban life by venturing to new locations in the great outdoors with our ever-evolving camping/ caravan set up.
Following a few key life events, we took a long look at our lives and realised they didn’t exactly look how we wanted them to.
Considering our ages, careers, finances and EVERYTHING in-between, we knew it was time to shake things up, lead a more simplistic life and look for somewhere new to call home.
We decided that NOW is as good a time as any to live our dreams. We’ve been talking about this trip since we met in 2006, and with both of our father’s passing of cancer before they hit retirement age, we figured we best stop thinking we could do things like this ‘tomorrow’.
It was a fairly easy decision... to sell everything we had and create a new full time travelling lifestyle but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t scary - or without it’s sacrifices!!

MEET THE FAMILY!
Wayne, 36 - A typical Aussie bloke, doting dad and loving husband who has always wanted to travel our beautiful country and is completely in his element in the great outdoors.
Total Master chef on the campfire and BBQ, lover of history and a keen fisherman, Wayne gets a kick out of exploring new places.
Katie, 36 - Feeling her freest while driving and camping, Katie has always held big dreams of travel. Totally in awe of mother nature, she loves to lose herself in stunning landscapes and surrounds whenever they hit the road.
With a love of photography and a desire to live life to its fullest, Katie thrives off the closeness that camping brings to the family.
Dylan, 12 - Dylan constantly soaks in everything around him.... from scenery and new faces to history and facts about his locations. He's our little bookworm and loves to immerse himself in various genres! Dylan loves to seek out hills and sand dunes to sprint up and roll back down; waterholes he can flip, jump and plunge into and enjoys fishing from the tinnie along with being first to try out dads rope swings. One of the funniest, most caring and protective big brothers you'll ever meet!
Cody, 8 - Cody loves to have FUN!
He makes friends wherever he is with his inclusive nature, giggly laugh and caring manner.
Cody's an ace with the fishing 'jig' and is quick to catch bait fish for his bigger brothers to use.. taking his job VERY seriously!
Loving the limelight, Cody is all character and definitely keeps things entertaining for the rest of us.
Linkin, 5 - The youngest and we think the most mischievous as well!
Butter wouldn't melt... with his big baby blues, crazy hilarious storytelling efforts and affectionate personality, Linkin sure does add a certain element into the mix!
\He loves a good splash in the water; squeals with delight when he sees new things (particularly animals); and is just pure joy, from the inside -out!
