Join us on another epic vanlife adventure as we explore the stunning Innot Springs and the historic Charters Towers! 🌿✨
In this episode, we hit the road, changing our route on the fly to soak in all the beauty this journey has to offer. Our first stop is the serene Innot Springs – what can we say – worth every cent!
From there we headed back to the coast way where we fell in love with the lush landscapes and took a refreshing rainforest walk. The sights and sounds of nature truly rejuvenated our spirits!
Next, we set our sights on Charters Towers. Rising early for a breathtaking sunrise, we explored the remnants of WWII bunkers, diving into the rich history of the area. And of course, we couldn’t resist a night at the drive-in cinema—an unforgettable way to cap off our adventure!

Well done finding that leak Tim 👍 Thanks for the update on where you guys are 🙂
🎉🎉🎉🤗🤗💕💕🇿🇦🇿🇦🎥🎥👍👍
Love your travels. We're doing up our own Sprinter and can't wait to follow in your footsteps.
Great job finding the problem Tim. You just saved yourself a pile of cash I'm sure by fixing it yourself 👍
“I am feeling confident” and the big smile on Tim’s face was just gold 😁

Hi Tim and Sandy
Great video Tim & Sandy. Oh and pablo. Thanks so mush for sharing your wonderful days with us ❤
Hi Tim And Sandy, It has been great to stumble upon your videos. Thank you for the look around historic Charters Towers, it's my home town I haven't been home for a few years sadly. Towers Hill is an iconic spot in The Towers and I used to go up there with my girl friends, at that time we would climb up the inside of what was left of the chimney, wonderful memories. My youngest son loved the town and all the wonderful things we did and he got to see where his Mom grew up. Best place ever in my opinion, I spent many happy nights at the drive-in movies with my brother, Mom and Dad. Thank you for this special video for me. 👍 💜
Beautiful vanlife experience. Thank you for sharing. Video 👍
All credit to you, my friends, everyone loves the great parts of vanlife, but rarely do they understand the nuance to the bad parts!
The hot springs look amazing! I can imagine it is amazing!
