Today's travel photo is of a Southern Humpback Whale breaching the water on the Gold Coast, Australia. I snapped this shot during my recent whale watching cruise with Sea World on the Gold Coast. I was happy just to have spotted some whales, but when they started putting on a show for us, I was [...]
Sydney is the most well known city in Australia for a reason - it's just a wonderful place to visit! I've been to Sydney a few times now and it is one of those places that I never seem to get sick of. There is always something to do and it never fails to impress. [...]
I consider myself lucky for the fact that I live in one of the greatest travel destinations in the world - Australia. It has to be one of the most diverse countries to visit, and over the years I have seen quite a lot of it. Even though I have crossed the country and travelled [...]
Imagine yourself on an island, standing in warm crystal clear water, your feet sinking into the almost perfect white sand, the warm sun beating down on you from cloudless skies, and almost no one else around.

Today's travel photo is of the summit of Mount Cordeaux in Main Range National Park, Australia.

Today's travel photo is of an old house and water tank at sunset in the small town of Yunta in outback South Australia. We stopped here for the night during the long drive from Perth to Brisbane last year, camping out next to the railway line in the town's recreation area which allows over night [...]
I just love a city that has lots of green space and a big area set aside for parkland, right in the middle of the city. Perhaps the reason for this is that I grew up in one of these cities - Perth in Western Australia. I have lots of childhood memories of picnics and [...]
Today's travel photo is of a vineyard at Jacobs Creek Winery in the Barossa Valley, South Australia. I really wish we could have spent more time in the Barossa Valley; not only is it Australia's premier wine region, it is also an absolutely beautiful place to visit. As we were short on time and we [...]
Today's travel photo is of the view from Eucla in Western Australia at sunset. Eucla is about as far east as you can go in Western Australia, located only 12 kilometres from the border with South Australia. In fact, it isn't even on the same timezone as Perth. When driving along the Eyre Highway before [...]
