About Russell and Shenni Waldron
Russell and Shenni Waldron - Full Time Traveller
When people ask us where our home is?? We just point to the Bus and say Australia.
Full time nomads, with no fixed address, traveling for over 6 years.
However we are considering a base somewhere.
We have spent a lot of time volunteering/bartering in exchange for bus parking spots. Many farmers and large block owners are glad to let us park up for a while in return for light duties.
Favorite camps have been Ulverston Tas, Leyburn Qld and Travellers Rest Charlton Vic.
