My first visit to Australia was as a backpacker on a working holiday visa in the early 1990s. I travelled and worked all over the country – factory worker in Sydney, travel agent in Melbourne, removalist in Adelaide, a banana farm worker in the NT and finally a barman in Cairns.I emigrated to Australia in 2002 and in my first travel job here I was immediately put in charge of domestic enquiries as none of my Australian colleagues could match my knowledge of Australia!My favourite Australian Destination: Broome and the Kimberley of course but I am also very keen on the east coast of Tassie. Best place to stay In Australia: Hayman Island Resort. Best Australian travel experience: Travelling by small ship from Cairns to Darwin.
