Canberra - Post Report Question and Answers
What have been the highlights of your time in this country? Best trips or experiences?
Quality of life in Canberra itself is excellent, with one caveat for shops closing at 6pm. There's almost too much to do. The beach is great. The mountains are great. - May 2023
Perth and Western Australia were amazing (Margaret River!), we loved Brisbane and Noosaville, Melbourne is exciting and fun, Sydney is wonderful, the beaches are great, skiing was pretty good (though REALLY expensive). We were unsure about doing Uluru and the Red Center, but we had an amazing time and would highly recommend it - just do it in July (winter) as the flies are terrible. Tasmania was one of our favorite trips as well. It's all great! (just don't forget Australia is a big country - it takes a while to get places!) - Aug 2020

Travel to places like the Great Barrier Reef and Tasmania. - May 2011

Trips to the Beach! Its a 2.5-hour ride to the Pacific ocean from Canberra, but the road can be quite frightening through the mountains. - Apr 2010
