Kayla & Michael

We are The Sun Kissed Travellers who are travelling around Australia full time in our van. We both have been travelling the globe now for over 10 years, but this is our biggest adventure yet. We quit our jobs, bought a van and started exploring.

We are so passionate about travelling and we want to share our experiences on the road – from free campsites, hiking trails, waterfalls and destinations all over Australia. If you’re planning a road trip or just looking for some holiday inpso we are your people!

Come along for the ride, we’ve got so much to see.

Top 5 FREE Spots for Camping in Tasmania
If you, like us, are travelling on a budget, finding free campsites is an essential part of ensuring that your trip lasts as long as you want it to. There are road stops and in Tasmania, you’re quite lucky to park in most places. However, these don’t always feel safe nor have facilities to use. So after spending 6 weeks travelling around in our van, here are our top 5 free spots while camping in Tasmania!
Must See Waterfalls In Tasmania
As avid waterfall lovers, our Tasmanian itinerary was predominantly about finding as many waterfalls as we could, and we definitely weren’t let down.

We explored many waterfalls in Tasmania and in this post, we’ve whittled them down to our personal favourites. Hoping to inspire you to check some of them out when you next venture down to Tasmania.
