About us:
We're Jack & Megan, and in late 2020 we sold our belongings and packed our lives into our 2005 Toyota Troop Carrier to travel Australia. Our original plan was to complete a full lap of Australia and return home to Perth to resume our 'normal' lives. We decided we wanted to document our lap for the future and began sharing weekly travel vlogs of our life on the road and fell in love vlogging, filmmaking and sharing our lives with you. We completed our first lap and couldn't imagine living any other way so we decided to continue travelling and calling the Troopy home. We have gone on some crazy adventures since then and it is all thanks to you tuning in to join us every week.

    We started watching you guys about week ago when I said to my Husband I missed the Savannah and let's watch a documentary about it. Then you guys popped up and we have watched a heap of your episodes. You guys are so chilled and likeable!! We are a family of 4 and love to travel Australia. We haven't been anywhere since COVID hit but next year we plan our big trip around Australia. We have been watching your travels and getting tips on some of the free camps you have been staying in. I love watching the gourmet food you still cook while on the road. You guys are keeping us inspired and maybe we will see you on the road in 2023 :)

    Hey guys - just a little tip with coconuts. Drink the milk from green ones and eat the flesh from brown ones. It’s much nicer. Enjoy the travels.
