It all started with a crazy idea, then the thought 'why not?' and the inevitable outcome "lets do it!''. Crazy Journey is a trip of a lifetime, four great mates, together on the ultimate adventure- to drive from Sydney to Ireland - and for a good cause, to create awareness about Youth Mental Illness.

The Journey is being undertaken by 4 young guys, 2 from Dublin (Dave, Fintan) and 2 from Sydney (Chuck, Rhys). 2 and a half years ago, in a lecture at The University of Sydney Dave Foran had a crazy idea to drive home from Australia to Ireland at the end of his degree. After years of planning this crazy idea became reality and has developed into ''Crazyjourney''! The four guys had friends who had suffered from Mental Illness so it was decided that this epic adventure would be an ideal opportunity to raise awareness and funds for such a worthy cause.

On the 3rd December 2007, the 4 lads (all under 25) left from the steps of the Opera House in Sydney in a Hummer H2 to travel over 45,0000 km for roughly 6 months through 44 countries and across 4 continents to drive to Ireland. We are actively seeking sponsors to support the event and 100% of all proceeds will be donated directly to Aware, Irelands leading youth depression support organisation. In addition we are ambassadors for SANE Australia our other chosen charity in Australia (see sponsors page for details).

Our main sponsor AussieBum has organised to fit out our Hummer with cameras so we can produce a weekly video diary. Work is also in the pipeline on a Book titled '4 Lads and a Crazy Idea', as well as a 90 minute short film.
