Now they tried to keep everything as minimal as possible. As my journey continued, I did the same. Less is definitely more in the bush. We rolled out the swags and erected Pippa s tent while the dinners cooked. A swag is a true blue Aussie invention that consists of a sack of canvas that can be unzipped, with a mattress inside.
Some versions are even like a small tent.
They are soft and comfortable to sleep in, but very bulky to transport. You more or less need a roof rack. I set my table, using my tea towel as a tablecloth. A gentleman has to dine in style, even in the Australian wilderness. The curried lamb was excellent, if I may say so myself.
