How do you shape your life? We Are Explorers’ co How do you shape your life? 

We Are Explorers’ contributor @evadavisboermans life is admittedly pretty dreamy, and there’s no corporate job or paycheck she’d trade it for in a million years

If you have the right mindset and the right vehicle, like the @toyota4x4_aus HiLux, to cart your gear and get you down dusty tracks, this lifestyle is more attainable than you might think.

@thenorthface_aunz have dropped their new AW25 hik @thenorthface_aunz have dropped their new AW25 hiking collection, and hiking fits never looked so good.

Our very own @ella_garbett and @jackjbrookes were invited to take it to the trails in a group hike with @mappa.outdoor in the beautiful Warrandyte State Park on Wurrundjeri Country.

And, if we’re honest, lunch was way better than any dehydrated meal we’ve eaten. Is this next-gen hiking?
You work outdoors everyday, right? As Managing Di You work outdoors everyday, right?

As Managing Director and Gear Editor of We Are Explorers @tim_ashelford’s got his dream job! 

But, is everyday just cruising around the bush in @toyota4x4_aus HiLux? Not quite, but there’s still a lot to love about mixing business with pleasure.
