Sandy Adventures on Fraser Island
We can only relax so much, so after a few days in Noosa we moved on and drove three hours north, to the small town of Hervey Bay. This town is the gateway to Fraser Island, the world’s largest sand island. We went on a one-day tour exploring the unique sights of this unique island.
A Retreat to Noosa
Over the year, we’ve taken numerous trips to places all around Australia. However, one big trip was still missing: a visit to Noosa and Fraser Island. We started with a few days in Noosa, which has it all: beaches, shopping, bars and restaurants, and a National Park.
24 Hours in the Outback
A visit to the Outback, the vast desert region in the center of Australia, is a must-do when living in Australia. We opted for a brief 24-hour visit to one of the most visited parts of the Outback: Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, home to the rock formations of Kata Tjuta and Uluru.
A Rough Weekend at Whitsundays
Our trip to the Whitsunday Islands was not without problems: it started when our flight got diverted to a different airport due to bad weather (again!). Next, once on the ground, this bad weather made our trip less pleasant than it should have been. And, finally, on our day of departure it was sunny with clear blue skies. Yet, despite our lack of luck, we were still able to see what we came for: Whitsunday Islands.
Top Foods from Indonesia
The Netherlands and Indonesia have had intertwined roots for centuries, dating back to the 1800s up until 1949, when independence was proclaimed and recognized. Unsurprisingly, during this time, many Indonesian dishes found their way to the Netherlands, and have been part of the Dutch cuisine ever since. Going to Bali, we were eager to try these familiar foods in their original setting.
