Cape Tribulation Valley Guide
Cape Tribulation Valley – where the imagination goes and delivers a serene stroll through the Daintree Rainforest, with cassowaries ambling past boardwalks and the Coral Sea glistening in the distance beyond a sea of trees. And yes – some days it’s exactly like that. But on my first attempt to get into the valley, during

Hill Inlet Guide
Hill Inlet has a certain “wow factor” to it, but let me tell you, having spent years wandering around Australia’s beaches, deserts, backstreets and, ok, maybe the odd dodgy campsite loo – Hill Inlet truly lives up to all the hype. I’m Oleksandr Honcharenko, and the first time I stood above that stunning swirl of
Lamington National Park Guide
Lamington National Park – the kind of place where a little curiosity goes a long way toward keeping things interesting. Look up, and suddenly the whole sky’s disappeared into the canopy above; look down, and there’ll be a trapdoor spider hole where you were planning to sit – great spot to have a seat. This

Witches Falls
Witches Falls is one of those places that I, Oleksandr Honcharenko, keep going back to – and to be honest, I’m not really sure I want to revisit it – because this part of Tamborine Mountain seems to have a knack for handing me new surprises every time I saunter through Tamborine National Park. Next
Hampton Estate Wines
Visiting Hampton Estate Wines has become one of those things I just can’t help but do over and over again – and as Oleksandr Honcharenko, I’ve been lucky enough to rack up a fair few of those over the years of meandering around Australia’s back roads. Perched up high on Tamborine Mountain in the Gold

Surfers Paradise in Gold Coast
Most travellers have a clear picture of Surfers Paradise in their minds – neon lights, surf breaks, and a seemingly endless stretch of sandy coastline – and they’re spot on. When I, Oleksandr Honcharenko, first stumbled upon Surfers Paradise Beach and wandered into Cavill Mall, it felt like I’d stepped straight into a postcard –

Tamborine Mountain Guide
Tamborine Mountain Travel is one of those phrases that instantly conjure cool mountain air drifting through eucalypt forests, cafés along Gallery Walk, and glow worms hiding in basalt overhangs. As Oleksandr Honcharenko, I’ve wandered enough of Mt Tamborine — from North Tamborine to Alpine Terrace and down to Cedar Creek Falls Road — to know

Tamborine Botanic Gardens
The Tamborine Botanic Gardens – I stumbled upon them on a quiet Sunday morning, high up on Tamborine Mountain. Mornings like this – the mist had settled in over the ridgeline, and every branch was whispering its own little secret to the wind – get your imagination going in no time. And as I, Oleksandr

Gallery Walk Guide
Wandering along Gallery Walk on Tamborine Mountain – it’s a bit like stumbling upon a treasure map that’s been left out in the open. As Oleksandr Honcharenko, I’ve spent more time ambling along Long Road than I can count – dodging magpies on spring mornings is no rare feat – yet every time I still
