Truth be told, my excitement level about the Tokyo Truth be told, my excitement level about the Tokyo Olympics isn’t that high. What I am excited about, however, is that it’s the perfect excuse to start dreaming about which parts of the country will be top of my list when we can travel there again. From mountains and islands to our favourite cities, Japan is packed with memorable destinations and hotels - and if you’d like to peruse my personal hit list, check out the link in my bio.
Say hi to Sam Neill - actor, winemaker and all-rou Say hi to Sam Neill - actor, winemaker and all-round legend. He also knows a fair bit about food and in today’s @travellerau, he shares some of his favourite spots right across the country. From casual pubs to amazing cakes and fine diners, there’s something here for every taste. (Link in bio.)
There’s a tug in my stomach when I look at this There’s a tug in my stomach when I look at this pic, a physical reminder of how much I miss Paris. I fell in love with the city in my teens (my first Paris experience, a decade earlier, was a literal washout - we spent three days in a tent while it rained incessantly), and have been back countless times over the years. It’s not just Paris, of course - there’s so much to explore in the rest of the country too. In today’s @financialreview, I list the six things I’m missing most about the country that, pre-COVID, was the most-visited country in the world. And yes, its elegant bridges score a mention.📷 Leonard Cotte at Unsplash
Some of the first indigenous tours I ever experien Some of the first indigenous tours I ever experienced were in the Kimberley, where so many inspiring guides - like Bundy, pictured here - share their love of country with visitors. These days you can find indigenous tours right across the country - in addition to being a wonderful way to immerse yourself in our indigenous cultures, it’s great to be able to support these energetic entrepreneurs. If you’re looking to learn more, Loving Country: A Guide To Sacred Australia, is a good place to start. In today’s @financialreview I talk to authors Bruce Pascoe and Vicky Shukuroglou about some under-rated destinations that offer insights into indigenous history - Mount Isa, anyone?📷 Tourism Western Australia
Anyone else having difficulty keeping up with all Anyone else having difficulty keeping up with all the new openings around Sydney? I haven’t yet had a chance to check out @_luckykwong or @haco_sydney yet, but at least I’ve ticked off @grana.sydney. Can’t speak highly enough about this place, housed in a heritage building complete with sandstone wall, serving up Italian treats including outstanding pasta. There’s a seafood restaurant hidden upstairs, a bar downstairs, a dessert bar to come… and they even serve breakfast. I’ll be back.
We all know about New Zealand’s gorgeous luxury We all know about New Zealand’s gorgeous luxury lodges, but now there’s a new way for cashed-up travellers to explore the country. Co-owner Craig Armstrong invested NZ$20 million to build the super yacht Rua Moana, employing 100 people on the build team and another 20 people on the design team. Setting all new standards for sustainability and design, it’s the new way to explore destinations such as the Bay of Islands, the Hauraki Gulf and the Coromandel Peninsula. You can read all about it in today’s @financialreview.
