I have just made fried rice a few times, but I think I nailed it pretty well the first time. For us its a super easy dish to make while camping and you can make it from barely anything and its CHEAP! Ingredients: Basmati Rice2 eggs or silken tofu (works really well with tofu!!)2 carrotsSpringonion1…
Driving the Nullarbor
We got through driving 1200 km of nothing on the Nullarbor! We are so relieved that nothing happened to our car (due to our history of breakdowns), because breaking down out there would have been crazy awful. Breaking down in William Creek, 150 kms from the nearest mechanic is one thing, but breaking down at…
Ceduna to Whyalla on Eyre Highway
We didn’t only get to travel Port Augusta to Ceduna along the coastline of the Eyre Peninsula, we also drove all the way back from Fowlers Bay, through Ceduna, to Whyalla (below Port Augusta) along the Eyre Highway. We didn’t do that just because we wanted to see ALL of Eyre Peninsula, but because we…
Coffin Bay to Fowlers Bay
So after we spent a loooong time in Port Lincoln and the beautiful Lincoln Nationalpark, we drove around 1 hour to Coffin Bay. Coffin Bay is a tiny town, which we did not know, and it has a nationalpark close as well. We decided to spent our night at Yangie Bay Campground which has a…
Creamy pasta with vegan scallops
I am a member of a few Australian vegan groups on facebook and I have seen a lot of people talking about Sophie’s Kitchen and the Vegan Lightly Crumbed Scallops and how amazing they are. I spotted them for the first time in a Woolworths in Port Lincoln and told Paul about them. I think…
Lincoln Nationalpark
We spent three nights in Lincoln Nationalpark, which no kidding felt like home for us after a few days. Its a lovely nationalpark with epic campsites and things to see. Two of our nights we spent at Fishermans Point, which is accessible by all cars. Its located on a little ‘half island’ and you can…
Risotto with mushrooms
For some reason I’ve always thought that risotto would be a difficult dish to make. But it is actually super easy and super delicious! As travellers we love to cook meals that require few ingredients and makes the least dirty dishes and this dish fits that description well. Ingredients (makes two dinners for two or…
Eyre Peninsula – Port Augusta, Whyalla & Port Lincoln
Port Augusta Our first stop was Port Augusta, where we spent three nights in Discoverys caravanpark. Is was so nice to finally see the ocean after having spent quite a while in the desert. We had a walk around the city, where there wasn’t much to see or do really. We did hang out in…
Dahl
Dahl is surprisingly easy to make and also super tasty. I had heard a lot about the dish before I made it the first time, and I didn’t really understand the fuzz. To me it doesn’t look very inviting. But it is good! Ingredients:3 dl of red lentilsTwo cans of crushed tomatoes1 big onion3 garlic…
Easy vegetarian and vegan meals
BBQ Having a nice BBQ in summer is one of the best things. We have had a BBQ a few times during our travels and our favorites are portobello mushrooms with olive oil, garlic and thyme, an easy salad with just rocket, melon/blackberry and a splash of red wine vinegar and ofcourse garlic bread. Bruschettas,…
Cooper Pedy – living underground?
I hadn’t heard of Cooper Pedy until the time when we were living in Renmark and a few of the others were talking about this place in the desert where people were living underground. I soon imagined how everything was under the earth and how you could walk from your home down an underground alley…
Marree – Lake Eyre
Day 1 Marree is a town just at the start of the Oddanatta Track. So we decided to stay here one night after driving from Flinders Ranges Nationalpark. They don’t have drinkable tapwater here, so bring your own or buy bottles at the General Store. The General Store has a very limited selection of groceries…
Flinders Ranges Nationalpark
Flinders Ranges Nationalpark has a place in our hearts after we spent five nights. Just the views driving towards it, in it and out of it are breathtaking. As we drove out we both agreed that it was sad to leave. We felt like we could easily have spent more time there. There are plenty…
Farmwork in Renmark
Since Paul and I are here on our first working holiday visa 417, we have the opportunity of extending and getting a second year working holiday visa 417. But to qualify for that, we have to do the infamous farmwork. So, since living in Melbourne didn’t give us that much profit on our savings, and…
Grampians Nationalpark
Day 1 We arrived in the Grampians around noon and came across Lake Bellfield. So that become our first stop. Eventhough the lake is man-made, its really beautiful. After being here for a while, we decided to drive to our campspot for the night, Boreang campground. To reach the Boreang Campground, you have to drive…
Great Ocean Road
Bells beach Good old Great Ocean Road. Something you can’t miss out on, if you’re in the area! My first time on Great Ocean Road was a year ago, when I was travelling with friends and we did a group tour. The group tour was definitely recommendable and fun! But, doing it yourself (as Paul…
