Australia
Multicultural cities, natural beauty and
a laid-back lifestyle
Australia’s cosmopolitan cities and vibrant regional hubs are the lifeblood of the country, and its major urban areas are international melting pots.
A vast multicultural society shows through in galleries of Indigenous art, and diverse dining with all manner of Asian cuisines, while Modern Australian food is a creative showcase of fresh local produce.
With miles of sandy beaches, spectacular rainforests, burnt-red canyons and Aboriginal sites, it is no wonder Australians are a nation of explorers.

Magnetic Island
Day-trippers cross the Coral Sea from nearby Townsville to hit the pristine beaches and colourful reefs of this miniature paradise, but life on Magnetic Island proceeds undisturbed, deeply settled into its own distinctive rhythm.

Sydney
Although it is known for major tourist draws like the Harbour Bridge, Opera House and Sydney Harbour, it is a distinctively relaxed way of life that defines the everyday in Sydney.
