Aussie Map Man

About Me

For my entire life, I’ve always been fascinated by exploring the world around me, travelling to new and exciting places, and experiencing new cultures. I am always looking for the next thrill, and I love exploring on my bike, peak bagging different mountains, and spending as much time as possible outdoors.

Inspired by my passion for travel and adventure, I originally started Aussie Map Man in 2018 to share my local knowledge of South Australia and the surrounding states with others from across the globe. After a hiatus of a few years, I am coming back better than ever in 2022, and I can’t wait to share my experiences with you. As I begin to travel the world again, I will not only showcase the beauty of my home country, but also many other exotic and unique travel destinations.
