Kangaroos, killer surfing and the sun-scorched Outback might be the first things that come to mind when you think of Australia, but this big-boy of a country has a whole lot more than Crocodile Hunters and blonde beach-bunnies. The only country to have a whole continent to itself, Australia is a heady mix of international cultures, unique wildlife, thriving arts scenes, outdoors adventures and, yes, party beach culture. The white sails of Sydney mark Australia’s oldest, largest and most diverse city, fixated on looking good and having fun. With its maze of winding streets and charmingly distinct neighborhoods, sophisticated and worldly Melbourne is home Australia’s most dynamic cultural scene. Relax on white beaches, explore vast deserts, soak in the arts, and get to know the down-under.

But this past few days, Perth has been anything but sunny, very unusually. Cyclone Bianca is the culprit, and while it’s quite common during the summer season (that’s now, here!) for cyclones to hit... Read More
