The Commonwealth of Australia is a land rich in a variety of landscapes and water formations. Travelers visiting the country can expect to find rainforests, mountain ranges, desserts, and lots of large, open spaces. Being such as megadiverse country, up to 30 percent of the population are immigrants with different cultures and traditions. Not only do visitors enjoy the many attractions here, but they also have the chance to learn and experience various cultures, usually through food and social events. Some of Australia’s most iconic attractions are the Great Barrier Reef, Sydney Opera House, and Harbour Bridge. They can also join river cruises or stay in fishing lodges. Apart from these experiences, Australia is one of the best places to go if you want to experience living in small homes.
