Hi, from Sparky74! (Sydney)
« on: May 20, 2013, 10:09:11 PM »
Hello all,

I'm pleased to be here... glad to say hi.

My favourite camping spot so far = Cape Range National Park Exmouth.

I lived in WA for 11 years but 2 years ago moved to Sydney. Recently camped at Kangaroo Valley and Kiama.

I'm looking for a 4x4 and a camper trailer.  I currently drive a Mazda 6 wagon and use a ~40 year old canvas tent from Kangaroo Tent City, Camperdown.  Our camping set-up works well but some extra comforts (& space) wouldn't hurt.

Best wishes,

Sparky.

Welcome Sparky! Planning in getting down to Kiama in the near future. Also very keen on checking out Hymms Beach which I think is somewhere down that way. Anyway enjoy the forums, plenty of useful info here!
