My first taste of overseas, like many Australians, was at Bali. Bali is (was) a wonderful colourful island, but there is a lifetime of other travel opportunities in this country’s 1000s of islands. From the great Buddhist monument of Borobodur, Hindu temples, mountain climbing, wildlife, beaches, more beaches, varied and spicy food, diving, fascinating tribes and cultures.
