Australia is without a doubt one of the most beautiful countries I have been too. From roughed coastlines to unique and deadly wildlife and some of the most pristine national parks I have ever seen. In October of last year, I went on an incredible road trip from Brisbane to Cairns in one of my favourite holidays to date. I saw kangaroos on the beach during sunrise, I was whales jumping out of a pristine ocean, I saw the most stars ever in my life and I snorkelled at the Great Barrier Reef from a rainforest. In this blog post, I will show you the route we took from Brisbane to Cairns in our road trip itinerary! Where I have been, what I have seen and what I have loved. If you are planning to do a similar trip, then read on. And if you love Australia and all its beauty…. Then also read on.
