Being a lighthouse keeper is probably one of the loneliest jobs in the world. Yet, it's been Leo op den Brouw's work and life for the past 25 years on Gabo Island, off the coast of East Gippsland, Australia. But now, the time has come to pass on the responsibility to the next generation. Despite the isolation, he's loved every minute of it. He's especially fond of his marine neighbors. “Well, we're sort of stuck out in the ocean, so we see a lot of marine life,” says op den Brouw. Whales, sea eagles and one of the planet's biggest colonies of little penguins are some of the companions op den Brouw shared the island with. But now, after two and a half decades, it's time for him to pass the baton. “I feel sort of sad to be leaving the place because I thought I'd be here till they dragged me off kicking or screaming or in a box. But, time moves on and got this young bloke who's pretty interested and very keen,” says op den Brouw. The ‘young bloke' op den Brouw is referring to is Sandy Duthie. And the historic significance of the job is not lost on the new recruit. “I'm hoping eventually to find a beautiful rhythm to tie in with Gabo's rhythm. There's a huge responsibility, and a lot of it is self-driven,” says Duthie, originally from Aberdeen, Scotland. For Duthie, that responsibility is a blessing. For close to 200 years, the lighthouse on Gabo Island has literally been a beacon for the locals of East Gippsland on the mainland 500 meters away. It's now up to the next generation of caretakers to make sure this landmark is preserved. “The island, to me, is a really important part of Australian non-Indigenous history, and I'd like to see it kept in good order and accessible to the average Australian,” says op den Brouw. Like op den Brouw before him, Duthie will spend six months living on the island—one month on, one month off—shared with another caretaker. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Discover how ecosystems are healing after the Black Summer fires. This episode is about protecting and restoring nature on private land, the recovery of local owls and the Black-faced Monarch.As Conservation Programs Manager for the East Gippsland branch of Trust for Nature, Ben Willliams' work revolves around helping private land owners protect their habitat, forever. He conducts many bird surveys on covenanted land across a range of landscapes, from Saltmarsh to the Alps as well as measuring a multitude of habitat throughout the region, assessing quality of forests post the 2019-20 bushfires.

Meet an 11-year old birdwatcher who has a love for Eastern Victoria. This episode is about a unique part of Australia, birding wishlists and the Buff-breasted Paradise Kingfisher.Luca is an 11-year old nature lover and birder who lives in Naarm (Melbourne) and feels most at home in nature. His fondness and respect for wildlife was first inspired by Sir David Attenborough's programs. Luca's fascination for birds began through art at the age of 7, when he started drawing birds and devouring bird identification books. This ignited a passion for birdwatching and bird photography. For Luca, drawing and photographing birds continue to be central in getting to know Australian birds and those living in other parts of the world. Luca carries his passion for birding where ever he goes, whether he is camping, hiking, surfing or on a road trip. He loves sharing his knowledge of birds with others as much as he enjoys learning from birders he meets on his nature adventures.

The company is pursuing an exploration program at its Victorian Goldfields Project in East Gippsland, its 100% owned Gimlet Gold project near Kalgoorlie, and the recently announced Mable Creek project in South Australia.

Andrea Lane is an economist who believes in the irrefutably brilliant impact of artists in regional places. She is also the co-founder of FLOAT, an art space in East Gippsland, located on the gorgeous Lake Tyers. Andrea and the crew at the FLOAT are following their instinct. For art, nature, generosity and fairness, in pursuit of a regenerative region. With the luxury of being (non-indigenous) Elders they feel blessed to be free from bureaucratic fear, and can frugally invest in the things they know are important, stemming from their 20/50+ years of volunteer ‘project management'. Andrea arrived in Nowa Nowa in 2001 as the Fairfax / Business Review Weekly online national manager … to marry an artist. At that time, the population was 200, and there was no internet. As Andrea telecommuted for the next 10 years, she discovered a life from which she has never wanted to return.Despite useful qualifications in economics, information management, community development, and art in public spaces, there were few career options in East Gippsland, and none compared to what art could do to multiply her impact on regional life and the local economy. FLOAT revealed that regional life was jam packed with potential, particularly with art. But not just art as Andrea knew it. Rather, it was art as life, nature based art, ephemeral and environmental art, and community activation art. Towns were flipped from the poorest to the grooviest. There was an economy to be generated, and a sustainable economy to be built, and so they imagined and created ‘F Incorporated'.Art trails dotted with wild and backyard fruit - (F)ROUTE. A thriving maker collective in Bairnsdale - FOUNDRY. Annual breakfasts for 200 folk, full of Johnsonville peaches – FROUTEVILLE. An artist-made travel bureau @ Docklands – FROUTELAND.

As we started pulling it together I thought this could do with a feature and Ionei, who sings in Ocean Sleeper, is our producer as well and I co-write with him quite a lot. I said do you and Karl wanna jump on it and he said that would be sick. They were happy to jump on it and pull the track together in the end, which was awesome."In the full interview, Jaydon talks more about Tourniquet, what Karl and Ionei brought to the song, what it's like collaborating with other artists, how Tourniquet differs musically to previous single Never The One, the upcoming EP and what to expect, what they take out of playing bigger support shows, their album launch shows and more.

And we're back. Live from the Mountain View Hotel, the show gets off to an awkward start when everyone realises that we all forgot to tell them we were coming. But Shaz at the bar helps out nonetheless, and she's a ripper.Ox has a business idea, selling blue rinse dye for hair. Marko is polite about this idea, because Ox has turned up in a grumpy mood - he's got a problem at home with his washer and dryer which has led to an awkward underpants situation, we can't even try to describe it, it's quite ridiculous. Ox wants to know if you can still be friends with someone who does what he has done with his underpants.Ox and Marko discuss trust. Workplace, relationships, golf course. Ox has a theory on an extremely trusting act that we all do which involves shopping centre carparks. Marko agrees. The boys then discuss the most untrustworthy sportsperson category. Ox decides he wants to call Damien Oliver live on the podcast, Marko makes the call that Ox is not allowed to.Marko reckons we put a disproportionate amount of trust in dentists. Ox tells a story about when he and Marko went to hospital for a full medical, and the trust required when the exam is occurring.Marko tells a story about his Dad training greyhounds in East Gippsland, and how they bred the dogs with the help of a bloke called Wristy Rick. Which leads to a chat about jobs that the boys wouldn't want to do. Ox pumps up vets, reckons they've got a tough gig, harder than being a doctor.Plenty of feedback on the show this week, including the results of our discussion on rangas. Plenty of comments from you on good looking male rangas, Ox and Marko agree that Michael Fassbender is a good looking rooster. We chat to Steve the surveyor who has called in with a civil selfishness suggestion, it has to do with shopping trolleys, the boys agree 100% with Steve. We also get Steve's view on the Brad Pitt / George Clooney poll. Ox and Marko want to know if being a surveyor helps with the ladies. Unsurprisingly it doesn't.Ox reckons pilots are massive wankers when it comes to using their job as a pickup line.We get the poll results on our Brad Pitt / George Clooney poll.Ox discovers that Marko has only ever read three books. And he tells us what they are.We hear a story about Ox getting abused on the golf course by a bloke who later became one of his best mates. This bloke has given him a massive gobfull of abuse, and they've still become friends.And we end the show on, surprisingly, not too bad a joke.Follow a Couple of Blokes, Couple of Beers and get involved with the show on social media here: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok.

In mid 2022 when I found my chosen hiking trail for my mid year trip ended up being closed for longer than was planned I needed to pivot and find a new adventure. I was looking for a roughly 4-5 day, 100k trip and also one that I could get to without it being a travel nightmare. Rail Trails have always been on my bucket list but after spending a bit of time searching for a replacement trip I came up with the East Gippsland Rail Trail in eastern Victoria to suit my needs. In this podcast episode, the first of three for this trail, we look at my expectations for this trip and discuss logistical issues prior to starting. Episode 221 will then bring you interviews from the trail and finally episode 222 with provide a final wrap up to see how my pre trip expectations and the actually reality of this trip matched up. www.australianhiker.com.au   Australian Hiker can also be found on our various social media platforms Australian Hiker Facebook Australian Hiker Instagram Australian Hiker Twitter Australian Hiker Pintrest Australian Hiker Youtube

If you've been following us on social between December and January you'll have seen that we were in the disaster zone of the East Gippsland Fires. East Gippsland, Lakes Entrance to be exact, is the area where we live with our family - camels included. Usually summer will see us operating our other business - Lakes Entrance Camel Rides - and seeing thousands of visitors visit our region to experience all it has to offer. But Mother Nature had other plans. We wanted to do this podcast for our loyal listeners as we've been a bit MIA and promo we'd start the podcast again after a short break over the Christmas period. We appreciate this Camel Connection community so much and we know how concerned many of you were for us - showing your support and love. We chat about what it was/is like (thus far) experiencing these out of control fires in East Gippsland, what it's done to our region, how we evacuated three times (twice with camels, once, sadly we had to leave them behind) and what the future might look like. Thanks for listening and we can't wait to bring more Camel Connection goodness to you in 2020!
