About Our Web Site

Background

We started a blog in 2009 our first motorhome trip to Europe. Mainly to keep our family and friends informed about where we were and what we had been doing. At first we used a site called “Off Exploring” where we could put in our stories and some photo’s. This worked well for a few years until “Off Exploring” started including advertisements to the blogs. When we wrote a story about a place adds would appear relating to that place. We thought it would good to have our own site without adds that would include other information apart from our blog and photo’s.

Travelbunyip was born

In 2013 before we left for our trip that year we started building up our own blog site using the WordPress platform. A steep learning curve and a lot of frustration later our site “travelbunyip” was born. Why the name?? Well travel is what we like to do and a Bunyip is a mythical Australian creature that lurks in out of the way places. We have now called our motorhome the “Bunyip”. We moved the blog post over from the “Off Exploring” site but unfortunately the photos did not migrate. Blogs from 2009 until 2012 only have text.
