7 Reasons to Travel to Australia
I often get asked to make more travel videos about Australia, which is hard for me since it’s pretty much on the other end of the earth from where I live. But in this video, I’ll be joined via the magic of the internet by Ben from Melbourne Australia, to tell you why you should go to Australia!
1 - Kangaroos
Kangaroos are amazing… and the only place you can see them in the wild is in Australia.They can reach speeds of 60kph, clearing more than 8m with a single hop! Australia estimates that 34 million Kangaroos live in Australia.
2 - Weather
Australia has 4 seasons. Northern Australia is tropical. Southern
Australia temperate. Middle of Australia is desert
3 - Beaches
Ben's favorite Australian beach is Manly, he spoke about this on his podcast.
Great access to ocean surf beach as well as a protected flat beach
Flat beach is perfect for families and it’s where the Manly to Syndey ferry docks
Ferry ride is picturesque takes you from Circular Quay to Manly
Passes by the Opera House and Harbour Bridge on its way to Manly.
Half an hour or so later you’re there.
There’s also plenty of shops to peruse and places to eat and drink. Manly wins hands down.
Some other famous Australian beaches are;
Bondi beach (Sydney, known for seeing fit and sexy people flex their muscles)
Bells beach (VIC, home of Bells Beach Pro surfing comp)
Cape Woolamai (famous surf beach in Phillip Island, VIC)
Noosa Heads (Awesome beach north of Brisbane on the Sunshine Coast, easy drive)
Port Douglas beach far north Queensland (can get murky depending on the season and also watch out for Irukandji jellyfish that can kill you, usually found in waters around November to May)
Cottesloe beach (Perth, great Perth beach, love it also didn’t love being called out of the water because surf life saver spotted two sharks)
Glenelg main beach (Adelaide, brilliant suburban beach, South Australia)
Port Willunga beach (nice beach near Mclaren Vale, has amazing fish and chip shop at top of hill called Star of Greece, great to go to after you’ve done some wineries and it’s the middle of summer)
Any beach in far north Western Australia. It’s hard to get to and nearly untouched. Ningaloo Reef, which is 700,000 hectares and is a World Heritage Site is apparently even better than Great Barrier Reef, obviously more untouched and less damaged than the G.B.R.
4 - Public Pools on the Beach
There are a few pools by the beach that are cool. One that I can think of is in Bondi beach, which is a real pool that has sea water splashed into it as each wave comes by. Another pool I can think of is in NSW and is called The Blue Pool located in Bermagui. It can be dangerous as waves crash over the rocks and into the man-made/natural rock pool. There is signs advising people to be careful in stormy weather.
5 - Koalas
They are so cute! They live in Eucalyptus trees and they sleep like 20 hours a day!
6 - Asian Food
Melbourne we have a whole street dedicated to Vietnamese food, so yes, the Asian food in Australia is really good. Remember we’re on a few hours away from Asia. We (Australian’s) also get lumped into Asia when spoken about internationally (sometimes)
7 - Desert
Australia has a lot of it! Take a roadtrip through the Outback… no… not the Steakhouse.

Sapphire Coast: Mumbulla Falls, Tathra, Bermagui
Mumbulla Falls - Wajurda Point - Moon Bay (secret beach) - Bermagui Blue Pool - Camel Rock
Explore the far south coast with my dog Memoo and I.
The Sapphire Coast sits discreetly near the border of New South Wales and Victoria, encompassing Australia's Wilderness Coast where lush forests, pristine rivers and incredible beaches intersect.
These almost deserted shores can be hiked and camped on and the bush-fringed beaches are the perfect starting points for snorkelling, surfing and boating trips. The area is one of Australia’s best sites to spot whales, dolphins and seals. The Sapphire Coast also boasts awesome mountain biking trails and extensive river and marine networks to kayak in, making it an adventure hot spot for your Aussie road trip.

Things to do in Hyams Beach, Jervis Bay & Eden: Melbourne to Sydney Drive
Discover the whitest sand beach in the world: Hyams Beach in Jervis Bay. The Sapphire Coast in New South Wales is an absolutely mind-blowing road trip if you're making your way from Melbourne to Sydney via the coastal route.
Did you miss Part 1 of our guide covering the best places to stop in Victoria? Watch it here:
After we said 'Sayonara' to Victoria and crossed into New South Wales, our first stop was the beautiful township of Eden, roughly a 4-hour drive from Lakes Entrance in Gippsland. From there, it's super easy to explore the vast and scenic Ben Boyd Park and the town's gorgeous beaches and coastlines.
2 days later, I've made up my mind about where I'm going to retire. Plans sorted. We then drove another 2 hours to Bermagui, which was a perfect halfway point to stretch our legs, whip out a picnic and run amuck at the stunning Blue Pool Bermagui. You absolutely have to stop here to admire and enjoy this incredible little spot and, if the weather permits, go for a dip inside.
The real stunner was Hyams Beach located in the bottom half of Jervis Bay in New South Wales. If you want to dig your feet into some of the finest and whitest sand beach in the world, then a few nights here (or even a week) is absolutely necessary. Only a 2-hour day trip from Sydney, Jervis Bay Australia is the perfect getaway from the city to get back in touch with nature. It certainly is one of the most breathtaking Sydney beaches, or probably, in all of Australia. Prove me wrong.
If Jervis Bay isn't on your Melbourne to Sydney itinerary, then you need to rejig that entire plan - right now.

Ulladulla is a coastal town in New South Wales, Australia in the City of Shoalhaven local government area.[2][3] It is on the Princes Highway about 230 kilometres (140 mi) south of Sydney, half way between Batemans Bay to the south and Nowra to the north. Ulladulla has close links with the nearby historic settlement of Milton and many services are shared between these towns.
The name Ulladulla is an Aboriginal word meaning safe harbour, which was corrupted to Holy Dollar at one time. Alternative spellings as Woolladoorh or Ngulla-dulla have been recorded.[2] The first white Settler was Rev Thomas Kendall in 1828 who started cedar cutting at Narrawallee Creek near Milton.
The Ulladulla area is a seven-kilometre stretch of continuous urban residential development from the southern edge of Ulladulla, through the town of Mollymook, to Narrawallee in the north, terminating at the Narrawallee estuary. At the 2016 census, the population of the Ulladulla-Milton area, including some rural areas, was 15,278,[1] having grown from 14,149 at the 2011 census, an increase of 8 percent over the preceding five years.[4] At the 2016 census, the population of the Ulladulla-Milton built up area was 13,054[5] and the population of the suburb of Ulladulla was 6,615.[6]
Ulladulla is surrounded by the adjoining towns of Milton and Burrill Lake as well as Mollymook and Narrawallee. The extended area from Burrill Lake to Milton is referred to as the Milton–Ulladulla area.
Close landmarks include Pigeon House Mountain and The Castle, both named due to the unique shapes of the mountain. Pigeon House was sighted by Captain James Cook upon his journey along the eastern shores of Australia. Pigeon House has recently been renamed Didhol out of respect to the elders of the Yuin nation, the Aboriginal elders past and present who originated from the area Ulladulla was built upon. The traditional name of the peak, Didhol, means woman's breast, from the mountain's clear resemblance to the shape of a woman's breast.shopping,

Traveling Australia's East Coast in a Campervan
Episode 3: Traveling Australia's East Coast in a Campervan
(ONE OF MY FIRST EVER VLOGS - The video quality, editing, and my ability to talk on camera has really improved since this hahaha but hey, we all start somewhere right?)
In this episode I will show you 12 of the 20 destinations we traveled during our 3 week Australian East Coast trip & important tips you can use when you make the trip too.
Warning: In this video, I
1. Have a snuffalumpagus cold.
2. Say “awesome, “amazing, uh, and “I gotta tell you” A LOT
3. I’m not sure I know what I’m doing
4. I just want to inspire other people to leave their comfort zones and travel.
If you are planning on visiting Australia I highly recommend renting a camper van for 2-4 weeks to explore these destinations...
My Australia East Coast Destination List:
-- From South to North --
Merimbula *
Bermagui
Pebbly Beach
Pretty Beach *
Jervis Bay ------- A must see
Terrigal *
New Castle
Port Macquerie **
Nambucca Heads ------- A must see
Coff’s Harbour
Yamba
Lennox Head/Byron Bay ** ------- A must see
Gold Coast: Burleigh Heads, Mermaid Beach, & Surfer’s Paradise *** ------- A must see

* = Number of nights we spent there
Beaches/cities without * = we visited for a few hours
Jucy van comes with all bedding needs, cooking ware and utensils, fridge, and gas for the stove - for the price it was a great option. We will be using Jucy again in New Zealand!
Campervan accommodations include:
- National parks: stay for very low prices or even free
- Free parking areas: we found a few beach towns that allowed you to park and sleep legally. -- Google Terrigal
- Caravan parks: most range from $20-$50 a night and include showers and laundry. Be aware that these can add up quickly if you are trying to go the cheap route.
- Random neighborhoods: illegal in most areas but you can risk it if you're feeling froggy.
If you have any questions at all please leave me a comment - I would love to help! Thanks for tuning in.

About the Vlog & Us:
Welcome to my Travel Vlog! (aka my side hobby)
This channel was created to inspire others to travel and really, to MOVE abroad. In these episodes I will show you the beautiful places around the world we explore + the answers to why and how we made it happen.
I am a rapid media producer (videographer/social media strategist) and my partner is a personal trainer. We left the United States to travel/live abroad for the next 3 years...
I graduated business school December 2015, worked to save money, and left the U.S. 1 year later.
Inspired by other travelers, with only 6 months of planning, I made the decision to leave my home country & explore the world. I quit my job, left my comfort zone behind, and entered a totally new world....
As of February, 2017 I have put more focus on my social media marketing business and helping business owners tell their story online. I film and edit videos regularly, but now to help other people win (which I'm really excited about!)
I am a huge advocate for personal development and am always eager to acquire new skills, learn about different cultures, and make new friends along the journey.
Living abroad isn't for everyone but I think it's much less complicated and more possible than some may think. Subscribe to stay in the loop!
