About the authors:

They are regular contributors to major outdoor and travel magazines and guidebooks, including Outdoor Australia, Wild and Lonely Planet.
They have also written a wide range of feature stories for outdoor, travel and lifestyle magazines including; Go Camping, On The Road, Caravan & Motorhome, Caravan World, Off-Road Great Escapes, the Heart Wise Journal, Inflight Magazine and Heritage in Trust.
