Welcome To Our Website

Here I am. I am sitting in front of my great caravan, under my awning, in the middle of Australia somewhere. 

My name is Jeff Banks, I’m the Oz Jeff Banks, I’m not a British fashion designer, I’m not an American gospel singer, I am not even an American evangelist or an American football coach.

I Am The Oz Jeff Banks

You will actually find me on page 3 of Google if you do a search, but I am aiming to get myself a bit higher than that, I’m aiming to be number 1 on Google because people want to read what I am up to, and I am up to with my wife Robyn, wandering around Australia enjoying this “wide brown land”

Now Dorothea Mackellar said it right, we love this country, we love its jeweled seas, we love its rugged mountain ranges, its droughts, and flooding rains. I aim to bring that experience to people in my blogs as I wander around.
