This is what I love about a small town, friendly people,great pies and the chilled pace. If old mate rode like that in Brisbane he'd have 6 cars up his arse sweeping side to side,especially from Logan folk. I intend to be in Atherton in 3 weeks enjoying a very slow roadtrip by campervan taking a few days to drive up from Brisbane. I intend to leave all of the city behind and embrace the fresh air,friendly folk and quietness...I hope hahaha. Getting a feel via vids like these. Thanks boss
Hi there, Nate. Take your time coming up, there's heaps to see on the way up and a number of free camping spots, such as Calliope, on the northern side of the Calliope River. Another is on the northern side Gin Gin, in the mornings a Coffee vendor sets up his van there and makes some awesome coffee. Enjoy. Keep well and stay safe. Cheers
@@Moz42 Thanks for the heads up and friendly reply Moz. My neighbours and I book our Jucy van this week for 12 days. Gonna get to your neck of the woods in 4 days not pushing it in 2. My mate used to live in Atherton and still raves about it smiling. I can't wait to eat fresh food,local milk and cheese I hope . Be knocking back a few on my afternoon shift from driving hahaha. Hope the weather holds but it's TNQ so..... I'm aiming to pull up at locals free spots for the nights but also budgeting for non powered sites if we must. We are happy to spend and support our state ,especially roadside farmers etc. Can't wait. Again thanks and I'm happy to subscribe as you're vids give a great pov perspective.
What is it like there? I'm thinking of buying a few acres and property. It look great. Your right about the traffic here and Logan etc this place looks like a place to live out the rest of days.
I live in Brisbane but was born and raised in Atherton. I love that I can say there are no traffic lights in my hometown. I’ll retire back on the Tablelands. Home of the Ngadjon people. Great video, thank you 😊
@@jessegold5542 It's gorgeous Jesse, it really is! I've lived in SEQ for over 20 years and I can't wait to go home to the Tablelands and get out of the city.
That was cool I love the split screen and the music jams dude great video can't wait to see what's next smash that like button viewed end-to-end and thank you for being a good supporter of mine as well
Even though this video is a few years old I was able to show my family back in California where I live. I even was able to show them my in-laws house. Why you didn't tage it I don't know 😂 Thanks for the video.
any chance you can go to forsythe, south of george town ? its got some history and i lived there for 3 years as child from 2 to 4 and a half years old .
Nice work on the video. Orderly town, the angle parking is interesting would provide lots of work for some surveyor. Didn't see any tall buildings, any reason for that? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Maurieo. Not sure about the building, although I could say "because there isn't any tall buildings"???? :-) The tallest is the hospital at 3 floors. I've been away for the past 5 days, flew to New South Wales for a mates 60th birthday. I'll play catch up with everyone over the next few days. Cheers
Brings back memories having grown up and lived there for 19 years. Thank you for sharing. 😊
You're most welcome
