Welcome to Australia, that vast, naturally rich land at the end of the world, shaped by deserts, mountains and, above all, oceans. During this trip to Australia, imagine walking through the primary tropical forests of Tasmania, surrounded by immense trees emitting a fresh and fruity smell. Have a drink at sunset on a rooftop in Melbourne, or in the middle of a vineyard in the gentle Yarra Valley. Watch the koalas sleepily overhead as you make your way to one of the world’s most beautiful beaches. And finally, relax in the middle of the Outback in your room, a stone’s throw from Uluru, far from the noise, leaving room for dreams and escapism…
