Показать описание
Life on a remote outback Australian station is like nothing else in the world and unless you've experienced it for yourself then it is very hard to comprehend.

Well guess what we are going to bring this unique way of life right to your living room so you don't even need to get dirty.

We have taken a short contract as station hands on Girrawheen Station in western New South Wales. Girrawheen Station covers 140,000 acres of land over several properties and runs around 12,000 Dorper sheep.

The closest supermarket is 250km away and sometimes stations can be cut off from the outside world for weeks at a time due to flooding.

How do people live out here? What about power, water, supplies, groceries, postal services, medical support and schooling?
We will answer all these questions and much much more over the next series of videos.

Enjoy this taste of true Australian outback life and this is only the beginning, stay tuned for the adventure of a lifetime.

Join us as we travel the world overland, exploring the cultures and traditions of all the countries we visit.
In our Land Rover Defender camper which is our full time home we will take you rock climbing, hiking and exploring across all the continents on this planet.

What an interesting video! It's such a different life, hard and original. You have to be able to do everything there: welding, planting, shooting, tending, and so on. I'm looking forward to more videos from your time there! Greetings from Bavaria/Germany

The Hydroplat (3 wheel elevated work platform) at the 12:16 mark is one of my Dad's that he has built. Originally Manning Engineering and then Schulz Repair and Sales. Built in the small Riverland town of Loxton, SA. Was pretty chuffed to see one out in rural NSW 😊

How beautiful is the NSW outback absolutely loving it…it would’ve been awful out there a couple of years ago during the last big drought driving from Broken Hill to Wentworth it was as so dry, how dry, “dry as a dead dingos donga!” No honestly it’s was devastating ❤️ hope the owners benefited from the big wet we’ve had lately. Actually hope your not leaving to soon still heaps to see in this awesome country ❤️

Life is rough in the semi dessert places. Very interesting and fun video. Looks like more fun than sheepherding in the mountains for a summer at least there is someone else around that speaks english. Hope you are having fun and they get a little rain soon. Stay safe and healthy.

This is so much fun to see for someone who lived his whole life in a city! So different from what I am used to. Some time I will experience this by myself. Thanks for sharing! Kind regards from Germany

Wow as someone who barely has room for two cars next to each other the Australian stations look so vastly amazingly peaceful, in a brutally hard working and disconnected kind of way. I think I would like to live and work on one for 6 months such a different life.
