Vanessa Tate is giving up the bright lights of Auckland, NZ for the dirt roads of Cape Tribulation, Australia for the chance at running her own tourist resort. She knows the climate in the tropics will be a huge improvement to the cold Kiwi winters but her fear of snakes, spiders and wildlife of all kind may be too much for this city girl to handle. Luckily, long-time friend and colleague, Dave will be sharing a home with her and helping her settle into her new life in the jungle. And with the help of real estate agent extraordinaire, Mark Whitham, these two adventure seekers are sure to find their dream home amid the world's oldest living rainforest.
