Send us a textA flipped boat, a blinking EPIRB, and a helicopter descent into a sunset—Matt O'Brien's life pivot starts there. From mining shifts and weekend benders to air rescue work, and a growing list of endurance adventures; Matt's story is a blueprint for rebuilding a life around endurance and purpose.We unpack how he cracked into rescue aviation by cold-messaging mentors on LinkedIn, tackled a fitness test he once thought impossible, and learned to swim from scratch as an adult. Matt shares the nuts and bolts of training through a harsh roster—day shifts as recovery, nights for volume, and two weeks off to stack big sessions—plus the mental habits that made those choices stick. If you're navigating shift work training, adult swim relearning, or prepping for Ultraman distances, his playbook is practical and honest.Matt also takes us 4,200 kms across Australia from Fremantle to Sydney on an unsupported bikepacking journey defined by mechanical chaos and grit.  He rode through the Nullarbor with breaking spokes, limped into Ceduna to swap a rim, and woke to find his bike stolen—only to track it with an AirTag on his keys and get it back.  Along the way, we break down roadhouse food realities, water carry strategies, and the small logistics that make or break an ultra-distance plan. And we revisit his first Ultraman finish, where pacers and crew helped him slip under the run cutoff by minutes, setting clear goals for a calmer, faster return to UM Australia in 2026.If you're a beginner eyeing your first triathlon, a FIFO worker balancing training with fatigue, or an endurance fan who loves a hard-earned comeback, this one's for you.

What happens when you swap the classroom for the open road? In this episode of the Future Learners podcast, we meet Kirianna from The Slow Road family, who shares how they balance education with adventure while living in a vintage 1962 Volkswagen Combi. Currently travelling in Japan with her husband Lockie and their three children, Kirianna offers a glimpse into the world of travel schooling. Kirianna discusses their philosophy of “slow learning,” practical strategies for offline education, and how they integrate real-world experiences into their Euka curriculum. Her insights provide inspiration for families considering travel schooling or simply wanting to bring more flexibility and real-world connection into their homeschooling journey. Key Points: Travel Schooling Definition: Family of five travels in 1962 VW Combi “Izzy” Currently based in Japan; children aged 9, 6, and 3 Philosophy of Slow Learning: Taking things at life’s pace; learning through play and exploration Flexible scheduling that works with each child’s natural rhythms Practical Strategies: Print worksheets and box resources by term for offline learning Integrate real-world experiences (markets, monuments, trains) into curriculum Euka Support: Downloadable and printable resources suit travel lifestyle Responsive support team; YouTube tutorials for getting organised Introduction to Travel Schooling The world really can be your classroom. For Kirianna and her family of five, this isn’t just a motto—it’s their daily reality. Living in a vintage 1962 Volkswagen split-screen Combi named Izzy, they’ve discovered that learning doesn’t need four walls. It just needs curiosity, flexibility, and the right support. Currently in Japan with her husband Lockie and their three children—Riley (9), Alba (6), and Elsie (3)—Kirianna shared how they balance exploration with education, and why travel schooling has become their family’s way of life. The Slow Road Family and Their Journey Kirianna and Lockie’s journey into travel schooling wasn’t always the plan. Both coming from aviation backgrounds, they’d always had the travel bug. They started travelling just before COVID, initially wanting to see more of Australia. What began as an adventure evolved into something more permanent when they realised their son Riley needed an education approach that suited his active, outdoorsy nature. “We just tried to search for ways where we could educate him to be an outdoorsy boy, still get out and explore the world, but also have a stable homeschooling background,” Kirianna explained. Their research led them to Euka. The COVID pandemic, while challenging for many, actually helped normalise their lifestyle choice. “Everyone could see that kids could still be outdoors and learn, or still travel,” Kirianna reflected. This shift in perspective gave them confidence to commit to travel schooling as a long-term approach. “Learning is just a part of life. We are all natural learners and enthusiastic learners.”— Kirianna, The Slow Road Philosophy of Slow Learning The family’s approach centres on what Kirianna calls “slow learning”—a philosophy that extends beyond education into their entire lifestyle. Living in a vintage Combi naturally takes you back a few years, she notes. The family tries to live like they’re back in the 1960s: getting muddy, learning through play, and connecting with different cultures. “I think the slow aspect comes from just taking things as life can,” Kirianna shared. “From a little boy, we figured that he just needed to take his time with his learning and really grasp his surroundings. That would build this foundation for him to grow and learn at his own pace.” This philosophy recognises that children—particularly active boys like Riley—often need flexibility. Rather than forcing extended periods of desk work, the family works with their children’s natural rhythms. A morning worksheet, followed by time to run, swim, and explore, then returning to learning when energy has been expended and focus is restored. Integrating Learning with Travel One of the biggest questions families have about travel schooling is practical: how do you actually blend education with exploration? Kirianna shared how they make learning relevant by connecting it to real-world experiences. When Alba had a geography worksheet about Cairns, she could draw on her experience of actually snorkelling there. In Japan, the children learn about currencies and money by using train cards and shopping at markets. They visit monuments like Tokyo’s Sky Tree and connect those experiences to their Euka lessons. “A lot of the times we will go on an excursion and somehow, without even realising it, it kind of falls into our Euka learning,” Kirianna noted. This approach answers the question children naturally ask—”Why do I need to know this?”—immediately and tangibly. “Riley needs the flexibility to play and then come back. We see a lot more improvement from his behaviour when he’s able to do that.”— Kirianna, The Slow Road Offline Learning Strategies What happens when you’re crossing the Nullarbor or somewhere without internet? Preparation is key. “Everything that we have for a term is boxed up and put into packaging, so that we’re ready in case we don’t need to use our devices or have internet,” Kirianna explained. The family prints all worksheets ahead of time and accumulates hands-on materials and creative supplies—purchased from Japan’s excellent dollar shops—that allow learning to continue anywhere. Riley, who learns best through hands-on activities, particularly benefits from this approach. “If he can do with Play-Doh and create something as he’s learning, it sits better for him.” The children have containers with all their worksheets organised by subject, so they know exactly where everything is. “A lot of the times they don’t even know that they’re learning something because they’re being creative,” Kirianna noted. Living in a Small Space Life in a vintage Combi with three children requires creativity and intentionality. Yet Kirianna sees the constraints of small-space living as opportunities rather than limitations. “I’m really lucky because the children have all grown up in a small space,” she explained. The family has established clear boundaries: the caravan is for sleeping, while eating, playing, and learning happen outside. “Their playground is always out playing on the beach or at the front of the caravan.” This approach means outdoor learning becomes natural. Morning walks help children expend energy before quiet activities. Rainy days become opportunities for reading, colouring, and conversation. “Let’s get out for a morning walk. Let’s get out and let our energy burst. So that when we are cooped up, we can kind of have some quiet time.” Travel Highlights and Cultural Experiences The family has travelled extensively, including time in Hawaii, throughout Australia, and multiple trips to Japan. Each destination offers unique learning opportunities that simply can’t be replicated in a traditional classroom. In Japan, the children navigate train systems with their own travel cards, learning mathematics through real transactions. They explore cultural landmarks and bring those experiences back to their curriculum work. “When they are sitting down to research or fill out their worksheets or learn something new given by Euka, they can kind of picture it and it makes sense to them.” Support from Euka and Future Plans While travel schooling offers incredible flexibility, having solid educational support matters. Kirianna uses Euka to provide structure and ensure her children’s learning aligns with curriculum expectations. The platform’s flexibility—allowing resources to be downloaded and printed—makes it particularly suited to their lifestyle. “Every time that we have needed any assistance or support, it’s been very quick,” Kirianna shared. She particularly appreciated the guidance available when first getting organised, including YouTube tutorials on how to set up filing systems. “I’ve never been without a folder. I’ve always been able to ask questions and seek help.”The family has also written a book, The Slow Road Van Life, which shares their travel tips, recipes (Kirianna is a fire cook), destination recommendations, and insights into how they manage homeschooling on the road. It’s available at bookstores throughout New Zealand and Australia, as well as on Amazon. Key Insights for Families Kirianna’s experience highlights several truths that resonate with families exploring alternative education approaches: Learning through play is essential, especially for younger children and active learners. Children don’t need to sit still to absorb information—sometimes the opposite is true. Flexibility leads to better engagement. When children can learn at their own pace and in their own way, they often exceed expectations. “If I was to just sit him there for two hours of English then maths, I wouldn’t get the best out of him.” Real-life experiences enhance learning. Connecting curriculum to tangible experiences helps children understand why what they’re learning matters—and makes it stick.You need less space than you think. With intentionality and organisation, education can happen anywhere—including a vintage Combi. “Riley needs the flexibility to play and then come back. We see a lot more improvement from his behaviour when he’s able to do that.”— Kirianna, The Slow Road Your Family, Your Journey You don’t need a vintage Combi or plans to travel the world to embrace the lessons from Kirianna’s story. The core message is simple: learning is just a part of life. When we integrate education with our family’s unique circumstances—whatever those may be—children thrive. Whether you’re travelling the world or doing your homeschooling at home, Euka is there to empower you and your family on your unique journey. If you’re curious about how homeschooling could work for your family, we’re here to help you explore the possibilities.

The Nullarbor barred bandicoot (Perameles papillon) was identified as a new species in 2018, despite being extinct for nearly a century. Until recently, all scientists had of the bandicoots were a handful of museum specimens and one black and white glass slide. Now two photographs of the species have been discovered at the University of Melbourne, revealing details about how the animals looked when they were alive. 

As far as well-known Australian UFO cases go, a 1988 report of an encounter in a desolate area known as the Nullarbor by the Knowles family, a mother and her three adult sons, is on a lot of lists, including Wikipedia. According to the article headlined “UFO Encounter on Nullarbor Plain Reported” in the January 21, 1988, Canberra Times, the family told police in Ceduna that they were chased by a UFO after watching it chase a truck and a car going in the opposite direction. They reported that it picked up their car, shook it violently, and then put it back down facing the other way with such force that one of the tires was blown. Sergeant Fred Longley of the Ceduna Police is quoted as saying “We have to take it seriously, there's no reason why we shouldn't. There were too many witnesses, the car was damaged and was covered in ash from the object and they were clearly shaken up.” While there has been much speculation as to what might have happened (and some doubt as to the validity of the story) there was another instance in Australia in 1971, that not only involved a UFO reportedly picking up a car, but seemingly carrying it for long distances. Read more →Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/podcast-ufo--5922140/support.

The Cleveland Mack Munchers have been iconic amongst the trucking community for many years with Frank Lenzi at the helm for over 45 years. His recent passing led to the closing of the company which was met with tributes flowing for the well respected icon. A number of enthusiasts purchased examples of the old Cleveland fleet including Jarred Sacca, a heavy haulage operator from Mackay in Queensland. Jarred pulled as many strings as he could to get this podcast together with two ex-Cleveland employees, Lance and Arthur, to share some extremely funny memories of their times peddling the Mack Munchers across the Nullarbor.
