Ever wondered what it's like working in an Australian underground mine – and living in a van at the same time? In this video, I share my personal FIFO (Fly-In-Fly-Out) experience as a van dweller working in the mining industry. I talk about how I got the job, what I did as a nipper and later as a dump truck operator, and how I managed the intense heat, 12-hour shifts, and underground life. I also explain why living in a van made perfect sense for this lifestyle and why I’d do it all over again. Whether you're curious about FIFO life, considering working in the mines, or just love vanlife stories from Australia, this one's for you. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments – and don’t forget to like and subscribe if you enjoy this kind of content!
