Geocaching was one of those things I knew of, but never really thought much about.

In my mind, it sounded like a technical version of Pokemon Go - a gadgety activity that involved stumbling blindly around public places with your eyes glued to a mobile phone.

Turns out, that’s not how it is at all.

There’s a special place in north-western Victoria where the road roughens, the sky stretches wide and the land begins to feel almost unfinished.

The towns grow dustier and further between and even the people seem weathered.

This is salt country - an area shaped over millions of years, from an ancient inland sea to the saline flats that remain today.

Recently, Cayla and I set off on an adventure, driving along the Great Ocean Road to spend a long weekend in the small town of Johanna.

We took off on an adventure to Wurdi Youang / You Yangs. This mountain range isn’t the biggest, but it’s wild, accessible and bursting with historical and cultural importance.

In celebration of Cayla completing treatment for breast cancer, we boarded a plane and headed to Perth in Western Australia for a week of fun and frivolity.

There's nothing better in my book than packing a picnic, grabbing the dog and heading out on an epic road-trip.
