Well done!

Australia is such an inspiring place!

Have you seen what Harper’s Bazaar, Esquire, Queensland, Sydney and many more have teamed up to present?

Very Stylish!

Really enjoyed this episode – I know Australia is an amazing destination as I live in Sydney and Teach Travel and Tourism to our future industry employees.
Also currently listening to episode279. of ‘This Week in Travel’ that features Chris talking about his Galapagos adventure with Quasar Expedition Cruises. Amazing – if Australia would let me out to travel – that would be my next trip. What a destination – but of course Australia is great too with amazing natural beauty, scenery, wildlife and of the course the world famous beaches – especially in QLD!!
