Max Allan intends to walk all the way around Australia. Each episode he will talk about his experiences on that adventure and share an interview with an interesting individual he's met.
I took a bit of a holiday from walking and content creation recently but I've finally got around to making this episode about my trip up through Sydney to stay with my Auntie in Glenorie. Also, I interviewed Colin Choat, author of the book 'Amateur Tramp' about Aiden de Brun, the first known man to walk all the way around Australia back in 1921.

Over the past couple of weeks I travelled from a park just outside Queanbeyan to Jambaroo in New South Wales. I had a rough time in Morton National Park, dipped my feet in the ocean for the first time and visited my Nan. I also get a tarot card reading from a woman I met in Bungendore.
