This spring, I was lucky enough to visit Queensland, Australia again. I went on a 20-day road trip through some of the prettiest spots in the country.

I will show you many photos and I will give you my honest opinion about whether it is worth the early morning wake up call. Let’s explore the kangaroos of Cape Hillsborough National Park!

Sydney is by far the most amazing city I have ever lived in. Whenever I have time I love to go out and explore new things each time. Incredible coastal walks, hidden little beaches, UNESCO WORLD heritage sites and some of the most amazing sunsets you will ever encounter. Six days in Sydney is definitely not enough to see everything this amazing metropolis has to offer – but it’s a great start. A lot of travellers start out in Sydney and then travel up the coast, so they have limited time to see everything. I have therefore written this all-comprehensive Sydney 6 days itinerary (Including one day to the Blue Mountains and Jervis Bay National Park) to give you the best Sydney has got to offer. I will go over all of your best options for things to do, places to visit, and lots of helpful Sydney travel tips.
