WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS BOOK?
I (Cameron Doyle) wrote the book "The Grand Adventurers: Travel Australia" so grey nomads (or just cashed up oldies with a heap of spare time and frequent flyer points) that LOVE the idea of "doing the lap" and travelling Australia have a keepsake that's bit more fun that a standard Facebook album to share with their grandchildren (or, honestly, anyone else that will listen).
Hopefully, due to the way I've written it, the grey nomads' grandchildren both:
A. think their grandparents have a little more "street cred" than before.
B. are inspired to explore this epic country and see what it's all about.
BASICALLY, I just want to bring the whole family together via the love of getting outside and goin' for it.
Also, my parents (who are almost at retirement age) have a big ol' caravan and I want to give them an excuse to piss off and do a lap of oz in it so they can bond for my future children over the love of travel.
WHAT'S WITH THE PHOTOS?
Once you've "surprised" your grandchildren with your "Grand Adventurer" status, they're going to want to see the proof!And you back it up by exploring all of the places outlined in the book, snap a 6x4 inch photograph and stick it in its appropriate location.
HOW DO I TAKE THE PHOTOS?
You can take the photos with your smart phone, old school film camera or fancy pants DSLR camera! Just make sure they are printed in 6x4 inch (15x10 cm) as that's what the images that are in the book are designed to accommodate.
You can use another size, it will look like crap though.
GLOSSY OR MATTE FINISH ON THE PHOTOS?
I'm more of a matte finish man myself but ultimately, it's up to you.
HOW DO I STICK THE PHOTOS IN THE BOOK?
A couple lengths of double sided tape will do the trick! I'd stay away from glue as it'll mess with the structural integrity of the paper.
OR if you want to get super fancy grab a few of those photo protector sleeves and stick those to the paper. I'd love to incorporate these into the design of the book one day but at this stage, I'm employing the K.I.S.S. method.
Keep it simple, sexy.
WHAT ABOUT POSTAGE? WHO'S DOING THAT?
If you're buying the book from this site, that means I'm sending you a copy directly from my hot lil' hands. I'm hustling as quickly as I can, I promise! The reason for my tardiness is HOPEFULLY due to cruising around Australia in my own set up and I haven't seen the order yet. If you're getting pissed off, hit me up on the chat function on this site - it goes directly to my phone.
ANYTHING ELSE?
You can see more of my silliness over on my personal Instagram: @cameronmarkdoyle. If you DM me saying "woogie woog" I'll know you've actually read this far. And that means:
A. it's time for you to get a new hobby.
B. same as A., why are you still reading this?
