Julie McAuley came North from Victoria with her husband Peter for a job interview in the early 80s. They never left. 

Together they have worked hard to build a property of their own, starting from scratch and mustering during school holidays for the helpers. Julie reminisces about the huge change moving so far from home was.

Whether it's the water, the people, the town - who knows - but there is definitely something that gets in your blood when you head to North West Queensland.
