Dr. John A. King shows off his bush camp upgrades: an outdoor ensuite with a composting toilet that ages waste three months before the garden, a converted bus with a gym and yoga studio, and solutions for off-grid living. Brown snakes and scorpions roam at night.

Here is the new ensuite. Well, there's a view from the ensuite which is exceptional. So here's the shower, which is beauty, absolutely great. There's the loo, and we recycle all of the. Night soil, put it in that bucket, give it about 3 weeks, and then we put it on the garden, 'cause it makes great compost. Well, 3 weeks, you put it on there, you won't put it, you leave about 3 months, put it aside for about 3 months, and then you go that way. That's probably the best way to do it. So yeah, there it is. I'll show you the bus as well. Nunggala has done a tremendous job with it. Here's a view from the clothesline. Flatbed trailer is the gym, yoga studio, breakfast area. Nunggala in the bus, morning coffee area. And let me show you what she's done to the bus. It's been incredible. Did you want to talk them through your spacious accommodation? No, I've got a sticky burr on my foot. You have a sticky burr? Okay. So, entryway. So we've got bags to get out every day. We've got a whole power station for charging all our bits and pieces. Kitchen stuff there. Cooler slash fridge slash milk for coffee. 2 fans over the bed, clothes storage tubs, one awesome wife. How's that for an afternoon view? Bloody beautiful, innit? When I was talking about ensuite, it's, uh, over there. So, you know, it's not quite an Ensuite, ensuite. It's more like a get up in the middle of the night and put your flip-flops on so you don't get hit by brown snakes, scorpions, or bit by ants. Trek through the dark, go down there, have a pee, have a shower, come back to bed. That sort of ensuite. And I'm telling you, it's beautiful. There is nothing like a shower in the middle of a hot, sweaty night. Fantastic. Get you some, friends. Live. It's awesome.
