James's Bio
Experienced Sydney-based overlander and ex-Navy sailor seeking a trusty co-pilot for my year-long Hilux adventure around Australia's Outback.My Background G'day, I'm a hands-on Aussie bloke from NSW with 10 years Navy service, plus years in automotive maintenance, vehicle mods, and remote road trips. I drive a battle-ready Toyota Hilux Tech-savvy too—love Automate apps, spreadsheets for planning, and Bluetooth setups for car audio on long hauls.Outback ExpertiseI've tackled legendary 4WD tracks and bush camps on prior trips including Bundaberg, Broken Hill, Singleton, Wilcannia, Barrington Tops, Watagans, Glass House Mountains, Warrumbungle to Lightning Ridge, and opal fields like Yowah. Comfortable with recovery (snatch straps, winch, tyre kits), cooking damper over fire, and navigating remote QLD/NT/WA routes—honed by Navy discipline. Safety first: balanced load, redundant power/air, and always flood-aware.Trip StyleSolo traveler turning duo—practical, no-nonsense pace with 2-week bases for fossicking, gorges, and stars. Love Burke & Wills history, Diamantina swims, and UHF chats. Non-smoker, straightforward communicator; expect equal cost shares and good vibes.�Keen to share the wheel? Drop your story!
