Hi All, near and far, first and foremost we would like to thank you for taking an interest in our blog. we are excited to share this journey with you, and share how it is possible to live your dream on a shoestring budget. 

The World according to  Pip and Vik,,.

 We are just two West Aussies who are going to set out on a HUGE adventure, traveling around this great big beautiful, and wonderful land of ours with no "REAL PLAN",,  No " SET IN STONE" time limit,, and planning to Free-range and free camp whenever and where ever possible. Also coming on this great adventure with us are our two fur babies, Candy and Bella. They both are pretty well-pampered pooches but are never afraid of going out of their comfort zones,, welllllll,, maybe just a little....  Candy is 14yrs and Bella is 11yrs old, both are chihuahuas x.

A little about ourselves;

If it wasn't totally obvious Pip and Vik are our Nicknames,,,  our names are Phil and Vicky. Phil grew up in W.A . after coming to Australia from England with his parents in 1967. Phil has lived in Bunbury and the Sth West since.  Phil took out Australian Citizenship and served in the Australian Navy for almost 20 yrs.  He is now retired. Phil has 2 beautiful daughters and 6 grandkids. Vicky is an Aussie bred from Goulburn N.S.W and came across to W.A. in 1970, living most of her childhood in the Wheatbelt. Vicky's greatest achievement in life is the life-long career of Mother to a Son and 2 Daughters and Nanna to 8 grandees.

We have been together as a couple for a year, but have known each other for more than a decade. We are both very excited to be going on this huge life-changing adventure together,, BUT we are prepared to experience whatever this journey has to throw at Us, there will be lots of laughter,, a few tears,,, A few life lessons,,, And many WTF moments,,,, BUT,,,  A Trillion jaw-dropping,,,, eye-popping,,,, insanely Awesome,,, Forever Memorable Moments,,......
