The South West of Western Australia is a stunning tourist destination, home to enchanting forests, pristine beaches, and limitless sun. The trouble is, so does the rest of Australia.
What was truly unique about this part of the world was it had the most perfectly preserved oddballs on the planet.
Yes, oddballs.
The matriarchs of this region are the wildest, most beautifully eccentric and free-spirited older women you’ll ever meet. So we searched high and low for the four most fabulous, and followed them as they ticked off their ‘fuck it list’ on an epic road trip.
