I began this journey called "Travel" 32 years ago. For as long as I can remember I have loved to see new places, meet new people and experience new cultures. I also feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with and become close friends ...

Ballooning Over the Yarra River Valley

Having been an Aussie Specialist for over 15 years, I have had the chance to experience the country on two occasions.


This country definitely needs to be on your bucket list if it isn't already. There is so much to see and do from snorkelling or diving the Great Barrier Reef, to hot air ballooning over the Yarra River Valley, to riding a camel to dinner in the Outback and numerous other adventures in between.


Weather you are looking for soft adventure or extreme adventure, there is something for everyone in every destination in the country.


I feel very fortunate to have been able to experience this country first hand and to have been able to interact with the locals throughout the country. A definite highlight was being able to meet all types of travelers when I was in the Outback and to hear their stories of their adventures while experiencing the area as well. 


While in Adelaide I had the opportunity to walk through Morialta Conservation Park. This free park had some of the most wildlife interaction that I have experienced while in the country. The koala were all over in the nearby trees as well as the cockatoo flitting from tree to tree was just amazing to sit back and watch. Of course, there is great hiking as well and you will even see waterfalls during the winter months.


I look forward to bringing my family on my next visit to this wonderful country!
