Welcome to my personal Australia travel web site. My mission for this site is to provide useful information about travel to "the land down under". Including, pictures, videos, stories, tourist information, links that are helpful, and travel tips. Also, to further exchange ideas, information, and relationships about the United States and Australia. If you like to travel to Australia, or have never been and just want to learn more about Australia, my site will be useful to you.

Over the years since 1989, I have been to Australia 10 times. The most recent trip was completed in July, 2010. (Above: That's me in front of the Sydney Opera House in June, 2010. Also above, new pictures I shot of the Opera House and Ayers Rock.) Click here for the 2010 trip pictures.

I have decided to put my knowledge to good use and to share it with others on this web site. A little help goes a long way. Please sign my guestbook.

If you plan to take a plane flight, you will want to checkout an excellent article from International Travel News magazine. Click the PDF link further down this page.
