Cheryl Akle - Notable Reads, The Weekend Australian book reviewer

This book is full of inspiration for setting off on that Great Australian Road Trip. It's clear that Meredith is a very skilled photographer and it's the photographs that make this book a triumph - she's expertly captured the rugged and raw beauty of Australia in a thoughtful and sensitive way. This book is full of stories, tips and sound guidance to get you around this vast country. It's also a homage to the 1975 VW Kombi - the little yellow van just pops on the page. What a delight to follow Mez, Sean and their pup Bandit around this wide brown land. A delight from start to finish!

‘What if you could pull back the curtain to a new view each day? Call the Alps your office? Head off-road into the sweeping sand dunes of the Sahara for a few days of total peace? Dip into the Mediterranean any day of the week? And, as the sun starts to set, return to the comfort of your compact roving home?

This compendium of the world’s most fascinating vans and four- wheeled homes shows that home really is where you park it. Let the creative fit-outs inspire your own van-venture, and join the journey with illustrated maps that take you across snowy mountain passes and along sunny ocean roads. Van life is a movement for all seasons, so throw off the shackles of modern life and join us as we hit the open road.’
