Ezzy .......the back packers on the east coast have got some attitude thats for sure,, call it at times a (Night club, pack attitude)

....what ever........
To be a West Coast back packer you need a far more down to earth attitude, to get around, doing the yards by your self or in **** house wicked vans.2 Litres of water 1000s kmsk 3 cylinders often toed from town to town

or you end up on a grayhound tour group never mixing with da local motion.
Anders was a top bloke whom got of his ass and made an adventure happen and trusted the good old west coast Aussie attitude, of may helping him to get to Geraldton.
I picked him up in GERO with a small back pack friday 8pm with out any windurfing ,toys or kit
Only when asked he talked up
being able to slaying big dragons in his sleep , he was exited to be on an adventure to the west coast continental shelf, with out any toys ........COOL DUDE
no Airlie --- beach boating here.. (opps slip of the tounge) .....( ive boated there and loved it........ if you hate swell). ouch
Given the oppertunity...... he jumped of the rescue boat to help sail a 6.5m twisting inside out rigg back to the boat.
Then
Jumped on my gear in the worst conditions of the day and worked up wind to the fire breathing 1.5 to 2m dragons with a tail of over 1 km and slayed, gouges into it .
He and mates Couldnt wipe the smile of there dials even with some very early visiable chunks and splatterings down the shirts. to laugh at for the rest of the trip.
Dont judge books by da covers....... ok some......penthouse , playboy
