BTBtv Episode #20: Central Australia Trek

Posted July 31st, 2007 by Kevin Allgood
 

Here’s the video from our five day trek through central Australia. There’s some footage of us enjoying some bush tucker, as well as checking out the sights around Uluru (Ayers Rock) and other highlights in the middle of the continent. For our guide’s sake, I have to say that I know they don’t traditionally play the didgeridoo in central Australia. The music just sounded right. It was written by Dean Wilmington and is by Termites at Work.

Posted April 17th, 2007 by Kevin Allgood
 

Episode 14 is from Bangkok, the gateway to both Thailand and all of Southeast Asia. It’s a beautiful city with plenty of culture, yet as a backpacker (heading straight from the Indian subcontinent) it’s tough not to spend lots of time on Khao San Road.
