G’day I am Bushman Bud.
Why am I blogging?
To raise money for conservation. I want to buy parcels of land throughout Australia and the world. Place these parcels of land in a trust and reserve the land for nature and wildlife to exist in peace for time. The land will never be sold or developed and will exist for the recreation of those that hold common values of respect and a love of the great outdoors. This land will also serve as a haven for 4WD’ers that respect the environment we all share and are continually frustrated with track closures. No I am not asking for money…yet. Your generosity will be gauged by the value, fun and enjoyment you will get from this site.
What am I doing. I am blogging my trip around Australia in the form of video, photos and text bringing to you some amazing footage and information on special places to visit in Australia. These are not your ordinary run of the mill tourist attractions but rather those special destinations you can get to with some imagination, generally a 4WD (but not always) and a strong desire to visit some of Australia’s remote destinations.
How, well I have an awesome 4WD that I have put together over 4 years (thanks to Gadget for all your help), just purchased a 21′ Kedron Top Ender serious offroad 4WD caravan, sold my business (accounting practice) that I built for 6 years, placed all of my families worldly possessions in a sea container on a friends farm (thanks Geoff, Dallas, Nathan & Jo), rented out my family home in Perth indefinately, taken my children out of school (Joey Jess & Orangatang Amy) to home school them, acquired a sense of humour, taken a deep breath and stepped out of life to follow my dreams with my kids and my beautiful bride Lovely Lynda.
With all that said, wherever we travel we will bring you text and video bloggs of some amazing destinations, crazy adventures, 4WD tracks, 4WD tips, show you our stuff ups, triumphs and whatever else happens. You will receive great information on remote destinations, walks, national parks, waterfalls, landmarks, etc. You will also get camping tips from many years of experience with 4WD tips and information, 4WD with a serious offroad caravan and more. What else can I say other than see you on the tracks…
Lastly, this is a live post so if you want to see something, know something or experience something, have any questions or just want to share our dreams, your dreams or your thoughts please post them.
Anyway this is Bushman Bud…enjoying Australia!!!!
What an awesome site! Very impressive.
Never seen anything like this and am inspired by your commitment to the conservation of our beautiful country and by your courage to get out there and enjoy it.
Best wishes
