We are a semi-retired couple who now live life on our own terms.
We are into our third year living a nomadic journey and life is good!
We trek around in our trusty 88 Viscount SeaBreeze, Dmax and roof top Dinghy.
Through our videos, we hope to encourage others that you don't need that daily grind to get a few weeks off every year. If you plan and work to a goal, the life we live is there for everyone's taking!

Bloody good video Team Jelly. I was going to deduct points for the unAustralian, Gen Z ism, American way pushed into our lives (calling Biscuits, cookies) but I can’t do that to lovely people like yourselves 👍🏼🍻🍻🍻🍻👍🏼 I miss Walpole

Great Job, well done Jed and Co. 😴🤗😂. I hope you judges are checking for sinkers in the gobs, so there was no cheaters like in the USA comps 😱🙆‍♂😂! Goodness the prizes were next level. Well done Troy! What a laugh this video was, thanks for being just the best Aussie Human beings eva Jed and Kel. Stay safe, have fun, enjoy life! 🎣😁🍻🐟
