Helen and Garry Donoghue’s self published 448 page book ‘Bust Out!’ can be considered a travelogue text. It’s the story of Garry and Helen’s odyssey in their RV named ‘Dingo’ through New Zealand and Australia for nearly three years and how they organised their affairs and the high - and low - lights of their trip. Photos and anecdotes from over 100,000 kms of travel over two years make fascinating and at times eye-opening moments for the reader.
The selection of which towns of places to stop or include in the book came down to was “did it have three of the following criteria? A pub, a museum, church and War Memorial.” Our largest place was Sydney (Pop 4 million) and smallest was Manna Hill (Pop 9) in outback South Australia”.
Those free spirits who are part of the recreational vehicle or camper vanning communities will thoroughly enjoy this book. It’s not one that needs to be read at one sitting or from cover to cover, but rather to dip in and out and enjoy sharing their experiences. And if planning a similar trip, using it as an invaluable guide as they too ‘Bust Out’!
