About the Author
It was in the backseat of an F100, rumbling across Australia with a three-bunk Millard in tow, where travel writer Catherine Best fell in love with caravanning. She's travelled the world in the three decades since, but nothing compares to touring our big, brown land in a home on wheels. A former newshound, Catherine has interviewed heads of state, reported from disaster zones and covered elections. But it's standing on Anangu Country, writing about the oldest living culture on Earth that gives her tingles. Today, Catherine's words fill the travel pages, not the news columns. She loves nothing more than exploring Australia's outdoors with her family, and has finally graduated from the middle bunk to the double bed up front.
