The ‘BUST OUT’ way is with an RV Motor Home or vehicle/caravan and driving the open roads of  Australia and  New Zealand.

 

Bustout has so far  has visited nearly all iconic sites of  Queensland, all of the Northern Territory,   Western Australia and  South Australia .There is  less than 5 percent of  New South Wales .(NSW ) and  about 10% of  Victoria to visit. Click on the States to review the town synopsis thus far.

 

Tasmania will be visited in March 2012.

 

Bust Out' is the proposed  title of a publication covering the issues that are involved with a  two to three year Trans Tasman Motorhome ‘holiday'.

 

The Bustout website town/site synopsis gives a snapshot of towns and iconic locations visited.

 

For 'Bustout'  in NZ and Australia we found the Hema Maps Atlas, GPS system and Caravan Park guides valuable tools (the bibles). Do not leave home without them!!!

 

What is Bustout??? Most  probably your good self!!!  Worked hard for all of your career and  about to retire?? Then the wide outdoors and country towns of Australia and New Zealand await you. Now is the time for you to spend time and discover Australia and NZ at your leisure. Bust Out is about expressing your inner self and ideals to do something.

 

You...can take all of these photos too.

 

'Bust Out' is identifying  that demographic segment of the emerging ‘Baby Boomer’ retirement market in both New Zealand and Australia.

 

The 'baby boomers' are active and aspirational and being nested for long periods will not be on many 'retired' agendas. If you recognise this descriptor, the Bust Out way may be for you.

 

Travel, in all sorts of form/function will be uppermost in the minds of this 'never grow old' orientated demographic set.

 

Driving around Australia will be an  objective for many Aussies and Kiwis. Driving around Australasia for most is not a consideration.

 

After the completion of the 'Icon Discovery'  the shipping of campervans across the ditch may, increasingly be a logical assessment for many, and Bust Out is about this market.

 

Bust Out, will/may also be the publication  targeted at the caravan and campervan enthusiast.

 

Bust Out will also most certainly bring small town New Zealand and Australia back into visitor/tourism favour. Country towns and small rural cities have been in many instances by-passed by freeways  for other glitzy tourist destinations.

 

Bust Out will cover in  the following items in  detail:-

 

  1. The choice of travel; i.e. private vehicle, caravan and, or motor home and the merits or otherwise.

  2. The purchase of the vehicle/s, trailers and vehicle options.

  3. The funding options, including motel/hotel estimates.

  4. The Carnet de Passage en Douane. How it works pitfalls and benefits.

  5. The shipping options and pitfalls.

  6. Insurances and warranties..

  7. Your residence, package, storage and rental income requirements.

  8. Taxation matters should they apply

  9. Communications with family and the outside world.

  10. Other holiday/lifestyle objectives and separation planning.

  11. Superannuation and benefits management.

  12. Let’s Go; we have now got the bases covered.

  13. 10 Rooms to 1; the campervan and holiday park experience.

  14. New Zealand; the icon discovery.

  15. Australia; the icon discovery.

With the New Zealand leg completed the planning of the publication has now moved to the Australian experience.
