Someday I'll get there...♥

AUSTRALIA! That's where I would go if I had all the money in the world. I've been wanting to go to Australia for as long as I can remember. There are so many places that I want to go, so many beaches and paradises that are on my bucket list, but there's just something about Australia that I can't get out of my head. Plus Australia has great beaches too, so there.. two birds one stone ;)


I honestly don't even know why I want to go to Australia so badly, I don't have any family history there, I'm not into history so I don't really care what happened there either, I just feel this need to be in Australia at some point in my life. It's the biggest most unexplained desire I have. I also don't think I will be satisfied with just a vacation there. I want to live there for some portion of my life. Once upon a time ago, me and my brother were planning on moving out there for a year and just working and going exploring when we had the chance. I still think someday I will do that, with or without him. Australia is also one of the easiest country to get a visa for. Working visa or not, it's very relaxed getting into the country so that won't be a problem I don't think. I just want to experience everything that Australia has to offer, and I feel like you can't do that properly if you're just there for vacation. Maybe if you could vacation there for like months at a time, but you may as well work while you're there.

Great Barrier 

One big thing that I know is pulling me towards Australia is the Great Barrier Reef. Its the biggest in the world and it's supposedly beautiful. I want to go scuba diving there. I know that some tour companies have packages that include scuba diving, but I'd probably go as often as I could afford it if I lived there. Divethereef.com has a whole bunch of reef trips and classes that you can take so you can go scuba diving in the reef and there not horribly priced. They also have lodging options if need be.

 Another reason is because of Finding Nemo! I want to be able to say that I went to P Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way in Sydney :)

I also really want to see kangaroo's and all the other wild life that Australia has to offer. Australia has so many zoo's and I would love to go and see all of them. I love animals and Australia definitely has some animals that I have never seen before.  Kangaroo's are also just about the cutest little things on earth!

Australia's Rainforest's are another big reason why I want to go. They have six different rainforest's in different parts of the country. They have a dry rainforest, cool climate, monsoon, tropical and subtropical. Obviously I've never been to a rainforest, but I think there is something so calming and beautiful about them that I want to visit them all :)

Gondwana Rainforest, New South Wales

Daintree Rainforest, Queensland

And last but not least.. surfing. I have always wanted to learn how to surf. It's been on my bucket list for so long and Australia has a great reputation for surfing. They have an entire website dedicated to Australian surfing. www.surfingaustralia.com has classes, summer camps, surf programs and groups. It's everything you would ever need!

Contos Beach, Western Australia

I'm sure there are many other things I would love to see and do in Australia but these are the big things that I always imagine when someone says Australia. For now all I have are the pictures from on-line, but someday I'll have my own. Someday I'll get there ♥
