Amazing photos! How long have you been to Australia and what was your highlights there? I want to go there next year and a lot of people told me, that the West Coast should be way more beautiful than the East Coast, do you agree with that? :)

I am Australian so I have spent most of my life there. The west coast and east coast are both beautiful. The west coast is more harsh and remote and perhaps fits with people stereotypes of Australia a little more as the 'Outback' comes right up to the coast. The east coast is amazing however and has lush coastal mountains covered in rain-forest with the reef and amazing coastline etc. You are talking about a whole continent so its hard to generalize. I would not say one coast is more beautiful than another. The South Coast is amazing also.
Alright, thank you for your detailled answer! I' ll probably need a few month when I'm going to travel Australia, because I want to see both East and West Coast and Tasmania as well :D
Sounds like 6 months ;-)
I thought about 3 month ;)
East and West Coasts plus Tassie is a lot to see in 3 months but that said its a reasonable amount of time so you can see a fair bit. It all depends how much of the respective coasts you want to see and if you plan to fly between them or drive across the south of the country (and take the ferry to tassie) to connect all three. With a large country like Australia its always a balance between how much driving you want to do to tick off the bigger bucket list items vs exploring the smaller places off the highways where the real beauty often lies.
That is true for most countries. I think you can spent two years in the USA and still haven't seen half of it..
I think Australia has also an incredible amount of wonderful places to discover.. Damn I need more time and money :D
Yes. I think we could all do with some more time and money ! Australia is a similar size to lower 48 states of the US so its a good analogy.
That is true, it is a whole continent after all..
