    About Us:
    Hey! We are Lydia and Wehan, welcome to our channel 💙🚐
    We're from Perth (Australia) and are currently doing the big lap of Australia in our self converted Sprinter van.
    Feeling unfulfilled and unhappy after building the life we thought we should want, in 2021 we decided to to sell our house and quit our corporate jobs so that we could go on the big lap of Australia in our self converted Sprinter van. Having barely travelled previously (besides a one off trip to Bali) and being hardcore 'planners' we were worried we were making a huge mistake but we've been on the road for almost 2 years now and haven't looked back.
    Our goal is to continue to push ourselves outside our comfort zone; seeking new adventures, learning about new cultures and seeing as much of the world as possible. We hope you enjoy watching!

    A fun fact about that Australian of the year display.
    You would have noticed that the signs aren’t in a straight line and they are placed along 5 lines on the ground.
    They actually correspond to music notes for Advance Australia Fair

      Such a great city! You're right there's so much to do and being close to loads of great spots (including the snowy mountains 🗻) is a major bonus. Definitely exceeded our expectations

    Canberra is unique as its a fully designed Capital City.
    Designed by Walter Burley Griffin.
    Griffin was the original designer of Canberra. He won the Federal Capital Design Competition, launched by King O’Malley, Minister for Home Affairs, in May 1911.

      So fascinating, we really enjoyed reading up on the history of his plan and actually executing the build!

    Must remind myself to do this when next in Canberra. I have only visited Black Mountain, not Mount Ainslie.

    Have you considered, given that you have ready made accommodation, travelling down to the Ballarat area & using your drone to help in the search for Samantha Murphy - i honestly believe that it’s going to take either a prospector happening across her accidentally or people taking the time to fly the area with drones to find her… it would be good if there were someone who could take drone footage & make it available online for people to review…..

    Not a big Canberra fan too sterile for me. All the Canberrains cone down to the coast on the weekends and invade our towns that's why it's empty 😂

    800m mountain 😅 ?
    Australia is so flat that people call every hill a mountain,everything above 900m is mountain !!!

    Melbourne was built from Sydney's mistakes, as Sydney was just built which Is what seems to be no plan and it makes it difficult to get to where you want to go, but Melbourne was built in blocks, squares, so if you miss one street you can turn down the next one to get to where you want to go fairly easily but some people find box turns difficult Especially for American tourists who drive on the wrong side of the road anyway...🤣😂
