Australia OZ, everyone’s dream destination right??? Whenever I speak to any fellow kitesurfers back home about their perfect destination, Australia is the place they are most keen to try out. For some reason all Brits think its heaven but I definitely can’t see why… It’s sunny yes, windy a lot for kitesurfing, yes, clear blue warm water, yes, that too. There is a more relaxed way of life, they still drive on the left side of the road just like home and you probably have some sort of family out there because you know they’re all decedents of British criminals; so all in all the two countries have a lot in common right? Only joking! But basically the way I would sum this place up is to take all the good things about Britain and make them better by replacing anything shit like rain for example and replace it with something better like sunshine! But on a serious note it’s great there. You’re gonna need a car as there are so many spots to travel to and even more places to see and the country really is big! Back on what might be seen to be on a half serious note, drinking beer there is expected rather than an option, it’s like a National pastime, so be prepared to join in and give it your best shot!
