Australian Travel

For all my Australian travels, you’ve come to the right place.

It’s not hard to have a great day out in Australia, especially as my home town of Sydney is quite central to the entire east coast and not more than 2 hours flight away from most of Australia’s major cities.

Sydney also happens to be located close to some amazing places that can be reached by car in a few short hours such as the beautiful Hunter Valley or the Blue Mountains.

Rest assured you’ll find more here than just Sydney, anywhere in Australia I have ventured is featured in the posts below.

As always remember how much I appreciate your comments, they give me inspiration for future trips and in particular, future posts.
