151 - Vantastic Victoria Australia

Tim Ackroyd spent six weeks touring Victoria, one of our favourite
Australian states, as part of the WorldNomads Vantastic Adventure.
We caught up with Tim to talk about his experiences and help you
plan your own Australian road trip. Tim says... I have been making
the video podcast 'Snowfix' for the last 5 years. It basically came
about when a friend and I did our first ski season, we decided we
wanted to keep skiing but didn't want to do the horrible resort
jobs, so we started making videos. Within one year we had created
the world's most popular skiing/snowboarding podcast and also
turned it into a TV show on the Extreme Sports Channel on sky all
across Europe. When I am not making the show, in the summer I move
back to London and due to the short amount of time I am around for,
generally live with Aussies that are over here travelling.
Subsequently I have been saying for years that I was going to do a
big trip and visit all those guys I lived with, and the Vantastic
tour seems the perfect chance. This is going to be a total
whirlwind 2 months for me because running up to the trip I am
working presenting the London Freeze, the uk's biggest
skiing/snowboard event (www.londonfreeze.com). The next day I fly
to Oz for the trip and as soon as I return I travel back out to
France to start this season of Snowfix. Expect strangers,
sillyness, singing and special FX! For more, visit
