I’ve been exploring Australia for over a decade, ever since I first landed in Sydney. From walking tours in Western Australia to outback adventures in the Northern Territory and rafting down the wild Franklin and Gordon Rivers in Tasmania — I’ve experienced some of the most incredible landscapes this country has to offer.
