Our Home on Wheels

The quintessential Australian road trip meets vanlife in this family adventure, celebrating our diverse landscape through the gleeful gaze of a child.

Mum and Dad told me they've got a wild plan . . . We're exploring Australia in a snug little van.

Ride along with Hunter as she discovers beaches and billabongs, paddocks and plains, forests and dugouts, and even underwater worlds. With a home on wheels and the open road ahead, a big adventure awaits.

From Jessica and Stephen Parry-Valentine, the creators of travel channel Flying the Nest, comes a delightfully illustrated recount of a family road trip that celebrates Australia's natural beauty.
