Would anyone be crazy enough to do this trip with me? 🇦🇺🚗

Before my visa ends, I’m thinking about doing one last big road trip around Australia.

The plan is: Gold Coast → Adelaide → Perth → Broome → Darwin → Cairns → back to Gold Coast, around 15,000–20,000 km in 3 months.

I have a Toyota Yaris 2007 and I’m planning to set it up with a rooftop tent, small fridge, gas stove and basic camping gear.

My rough solo budget is $5,000–6,000 AUD: around $2,500–3,000 fuel, $1,300–1,800 food, and the rest for gas, showers, laundry, national parks and small expenses.

Has anyone done something similar with a small car? Do you think the budget and plan are realistic?

Let me know what you think, please.
