  • Made by Film Australia 1975. Directed by Brian Hannant. A girl, a boy, a Landrover, a motor cyclist and a continent. These are the essential ingredients of a road film with a difference. Made for the Australian Tourist Commission it is particularly concerned with young people seeing Australia as a do-it-yourself adventure. This film features Tom Burstall, now a well known figure in Australian film production, who can also be seen as a young boy in our film Nullarbor Hideout • Nullarbor Hideout Tom gets to travel across the Nullarbor in this film too - but not in a way he is too happy about.

    My family traveled around Australia for 14 months from December 5th 1980 , till Feburary 1982 in a Toyota Landcruiser and Caravan. I was 14 .Best year of my families life. It was kind of an end of an era of the old Australia. It was the time Australia was 100% true blue. Being a kiwi with an Australian mother, the family had a real connection with Australia growing up, so this is the only year in my life I can remember every day of.A truly magical experience.

      We did the same in 1974. Hired a caravan and did the snowy mountains from Adelaide. And a road trip to Perth.
      Australia died by the end of the 80s.
      Multi culturalism is a bad thing.

    Wow! I've watched a bunch of NFSA films from the 60s and 70s which bring back memories of my childhood but this one is actually nostalgic!
    The simple friendships we had before technology complicated everything. The beautiful country it still is but also it's been complicated too much

    I did this clockwise back in 84 before all the tourists came in. Starting from York WA and went visiting Monkey Mia and back in those days there wasn´t even a caravanpark at that particular spot and only half a dozen of visitors next to a copple of local fishermen. It took me around 6 weeks to do the roundabout with some labor in Yarrawonga with my other relatives who lived overthere. Such a beautiful time to spend in my early 20´s over there.................

    Bloody keen traveling in the Landy.
    Would of been better off in an FJ155 Cruiser.
    No way the Land Rover never broke down.
    Lucky fuel was cheap.
    I could fill my car up for 4 bucks in the 70s and a beer was 36 cents.
    It's all relative I guess but one of the best things about Australia is that you can still do this however, I wonder for how much longer ?
