Top 5 places you have visited or want to visit.
Idk i have any specific order for this - so consider it "top 5 general". Also theyre all Australia, bc as much as theres places i think would be cool to visit overseas, i think theres a lot of places in Australia that are super underrated, and I want to visit them first. (Also I've literally never left the country, so...)
Want to: The Kimberley
Tumblr media
I've been to WA, but only to the bottom part, and I'd love to see more of it. Plus, my parents have photos from like the 90s and some of the places they went were GORGEOUS and I'd love to visit some day.
2. Been to: Narriearra Caryapundy Swamp National Park
Tumblr media
VERY cool place. May hold the record for the prettiest sunrises I've seen in the last little while. I'm sad i didnt get to explore more around the wider area. Worlds cutest budgies (and insanely sized flocks of them at that). 10/10 would go again.
3. Want to: Tasmania (general)
Tumblr media
I've been to Tasmania exactly once (it made me technically have been to every state) but it was for a university trip, and we only got three exploration days. So I've been to Port Arthur, Maria Island, and Hobart. All very cool, but I'd love to see more of it, especially the western side. Also to revisit a bakery that i got literally the best vanilla slice i've ever tasted from.
4. Been to: The (various) Keppel Islands
Tumblr media
Theyre just SO pretty. Theyre also the traditional lands of the Woppaburra people and have some VERY cool archaeology and culture (including carved shell fish hooks). Also somewhere i saw a dugong once, so bonus points for that. (Still mad they keep trying to redevelop Great Keppel Island. pls. it doesnt need a resort).
5. Want to: Norfolk Island
Tumblr media
TECHNICALLY part of Australia, but also like... a long trip. I feel like I might like to visit Norfolk Island at least once in my life. Especially after having had to do research on it for an archaeology assessment once. Its kinda fascinating

Landscape Language
Capitulum (noun) – inflorescence with a tight cluster of unstalked flowers
Plants in the daisy family, Asteraceae, have inflorescences, or flower structures, called the capitulum (plural capitula). The flower is formed of many unstalked blooms surrounded by bracts to give the appearance of a single bloom. The capitulum is also known more simply as the “head”. The Asteraceae family was previously named Compositae, because of their composite flowers. There are many examples of this type of flower found in the park – what are your favorites?

Tongariro Alpine Crossing, New Zealand: The rugged, unusual landscape attracts adventurers of every kind. Often called the best one-day walk in New Zealand, the Tongariro Alpine Crossing is a strenuous 17 kilometre hike past Mount Ngauruhoe and over Mount Tongariro. The lunar-like landscape features active volcanic areas, emerald crater lakes and panoramic views. The area was used extensively in the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
