Reporter Carolyne Jasinski was last heard of heading into the central Australian outback on a solo trip in a four-wheel drive, with a two-way radio and a personal locator beacon for safety.

We at Travel Writers Radio were a bit apprehensive about this off-road experience. As it turns out, so was she.

Carolyne saw few motorists en route but dozens of wild brumbies roaming free, and she she has lived to tell the tale as she explains to Graeme Kemlo.
