No matter where you travel on your vacations, every destination brings fresh experiences. New languages, new cultures, new sights and it's a whole magical feeling. If Queensland happens to be your next vacation, know these new facts before you go. Check this out!
If you are travelling to Queensland under the impression that it's just a small state, no- it's a mistake! Queensland is huge and is super diverse with everything. Choose one of the Middlemount service apartments the likes of Oaks Middlemount Suites and travel all around Brisbane and the Gold Coast and you'll just realize that the fact it has a whopping size is not false at all. As you can see, a holiday spent in Queensland is going to be full of fun and excitement.
Travellers are obsessed with selfies and that's a fact! But, selfies taken in Queensland will be ultra-interesting because they are often photo bombed by various animals. You get to adore the beauty of nature and wildlife everywhere in Queensland and it's quite normal to birds and other creatures (even turtles and koalas) to come and smile with you for a selfie.
Wait- it's not about the beautiful faces (but of course, Queenslanders are pretty too), but about their beautiful hearts. The way how locals welcome strangers and deal with them is very interesting, and it makes someone get more attached to this new destination as well. Queenslanders always smile genuinely and will help anyone who is in need.
Although Queensland is eventful with many adventures to take, do not miss this out. Queensland sunsets! Sit down somewhere (be it on a beach any place with a clear sky) and wait till the sun decides to say bye to the world, welcoming the moon. Take a beer or a glass of wine to be with you to enjoy this moment and you'll realize that nothing beats this adventure no matter what.
Don't be surprised even if you hear some odd words when you are in Queensland. 'What a stinker of a day!' will mean 'oh my god- it's a hot day!' and 'we are up the creek!' will mean that someone is in trouble. You won't understand the meanings of these words first, but with time, you'll get used to it. Strewth!!! (What a surprise!!)
This piece of information is for the nature-lovers out there! Did you know that Queensland is home to the oldest rainforest in the world? Yes, it's the Daintree Rainforest and it's a perfect space for hikes and other adventures. Spot the colourful birds inviting you to enjoy an amazing experience and let your camera capture these moments in their purest forms. Yes, it's a wonder to behold!
