Maybe we can’t travel the world at the moment. But at least we can travel in our heads by reading great travel books like Lonely Planet’s latest release called “Epic Surf Breaks of the World”. It’s irrelevant as to whether you’re a surfer or not, because this beautifully illustrated book will have you enthralled from…
I’ve discovered that some places are worthy of a second visit. This is what brought me back to the seaside town of Bargara on the Southern Great Barrier Reef on the Coral Coast. However this time around, instead of just a day trip, we spent a whole week here seeing the best of Bargara. Where…
