iPhoneography Oz Is Dead, Long Live iOz


39,014 km, 340 days, nearly 4,800 photos captured with an iPhone including more than 800 photos edited via instagram. These are the standout figures of the iPhoneography Oz road trip around Australia which ended today in a Brisbane Airport parking space (photo)... where it all began on January 1st. From Brisbane to Cairns via Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide, Perth and Darwin, we traveled across the continent visiting Australia's landmarks and going off the beaten tracks too. We obviously have a lot of memories associated with this trip. We will need a little time to digest all these encounters, these discoveries, these idyllic and breathtaking landscapes. And all of the trials and tribulations that went with it too. In the end, like after any experience, we have grown, we are more open-minded and especially keen to continue our travels and visit more countries. Australia is a unique country and we hope that everyone gets the chance to visit Australia the way we did it for almost 12 months. We will not bore you with an endless thank you speech but we still want to express gratitude to all those who participated directly or indirectly to the realization of this great adventure: our partners who believed in the project and allowed us to have extraordinary experiences, and all of you who have been reading the blog and following us on social media. Note that you were doing all of this reading and following from 112 different countries!

  1. Thoroughly enjoyed following your travels through this page and truly appreciated the well written commentary that went with some very nicely accomplished photos.
    It was great to be able to be a very small part of your journey and when you get the urge to circumnavigate the continent again you know where to find us.

  2. @Andrew and Debra thanks for your comments. You really were part of our journey (there's no "small part")! We're glad we met you. Many thanks for the beautiful photos :)

  3. @Natasha hopefully you are going to travel to Australia pretty soon (and hopefully you'll find a few tips on iOz). When you're there, be our guest on the blog :)
