Yes, it's a phenomenal place to swim and surf...if you can even get a carpark in Noosa!! Very expensive now too, the people that either live or holiday in Noosa are very well-off. I live in Brisbane and will maybe do a day trip to surf in Tea Tree Bay if I feel brave enough to face the crowds. It feels busier than Byron Bay at times.

Many of the mountains and towns around Australia are indigenous words!

I have just binged all your Australian vlogs. I am a Melburnian (you had coffee at a place I worked at) that has since moved to Canberra to go back to University to study (quieter here as you mentioned in your Canberra vlog). I am loving your vids and I am glad your are enjoying our country. I am very proud to be called an Aussie but if you want to see how fierce our interstate rivarly is just watch the Rugby match on tonight, I was born in NSW... if you watch it you will see what I mean... Tia I am glad that you are getting into open spaces that allows your body and mind to calm down, that is also one of the reasons I moved to Canberra as I know the feeling. Take care guys and I will keenly anticipate your next vid...

One of the things I’ve been most impressed with throughout this series, is your pronunciation and your willingness to get the pronunciation correct. And when you’ve been corrected you take that on board, admit your mistakes, and don’t make them again. Keep on enjoying the journey.

Really enjoying your travels! Just a quick word re the harsher sun in Australia: The elliptical orbit of the Earth and our axial tilt combine to place the Southern Hemisphere closer to the sun during its summer months than the Northern Hemisphere. Coupled with our clearer atmospheric conditions, this means that Australians are exposed to up to 15% more UV than Europeans. There is of course a thinner ozone layer above Antarctica but it has less to do with that & more to do with our position in the Southern Hemisphere.✌🏼

@stephengentle2815

It's true - although people in the Northern Hemisphere are going to have to become more sun-smart, since pollution controls are starting to make some effect. International agreements to limit sulphur content in shipping fuel over the last few years being a big one - the sulphur dioxide pollution that sulphur created did shield some UV, and removing it has probably already brought the Northern Hemisphere a couple of percentage points closer (in the amount UV that gets to the ground) to us down South.

It's super refreshing to hear Tia talk about her anxiety. It takes a lot of courage to talk about it openly and to put yourself in situations that aggravate the anxiety. Good job Tia! and good job Cheveyo for being so supportive

That calm vibe of Brisbane is why I love it so much. Cities generally stress me out, but Brissy has always been an exception to that. If you ever do venture back, that 'brewery' you spotted under the Story Bridge has some of the City's best restaurants.

Honestly I LOVE BRISBANE I have been to 5 capitals in Australia and Brisbane is probably my favourite it's gorgeous and fun it's absolutely a vibe

Tia ... you anxiety in relation to big cities and crowds is well understood; brave of you to be so open about it. Once you hit the real Outback you will revel in its solitude and grandeur - the redness of the dirt, the blueness of the sky a night sky with more stars than you could ever imagine. Cities are a necessity that I tolerate but it is the Outback that feeds my soul.

Thanks for visiting! It's a great place, I've lived here for years, Brisbane is basically in the sweet spot in Australia for weather, laid-back lifestyle, enough amenities and cultural events, relatively affordable housing, while still having decent job opportunities. The main thing that I think that needs a lot of improvement is better public transport, especially rail (ideally some underground metro rail Ines), but there is a lot of advocacy pushing public and active transport, and at least some projects are in construction at the moment.

I don't usually watch travel vlogs but you're such a lovely couple who see everything with positivity even when things may be different to what you're used to back in the states. Keep up the good work! ❤

This has been an extra special vlog because you shared such personal feelings. I have something similar and I am always grateful that I was born in Australia where I can get away from people relatively easily.

Oh I love you guys, so cute and lovely to watch, love your Aussie accents too “mate” 😂. It’s great to hear your thoughts on Australia and how you are always so positive. Thoroughly enjoying watching your travels. Looking forward to watching you see the rest of our country

Hey guys, great v/log..I think it was very brave and moving for Tia to share her vulnerable side..Happy travels

I am loving that you both find positive things about each city and state that you go to. There has always been an interstate rivalry here, but there should be more interstate appreciation happening. I hope this channel helps others maybe think about visiting other cities in Aus.

So glad you've enjoyed Brisbane, and welcome. You guys are awesome.

Tia thank you for being so vulnerable! One of the many of reason why I LOVE watching you guys is because I relate to you so much, as an anxious girly myself. There have been so many instances where I relate to you (fear of crossing the street, social anxiety etc) and seeing you surpass your fears is truly empowering. The proudest moment was seeing you get on a motorbike in Vietnam and rocking it! Hope to get there one day

If you are going to Darwin, I have a tip for you. Every Thursday evening there is a sunset market at Mindil beach which is a must see. The food stalls are terrific. The tip is regarding the famous Darwin sunsets. Tourists having heard about the famous Darwin sunsets will watch the sun set into the sea and as soon as they see it set they turn around and leave as they have seen the sunset. NO! The actual show starts AFTER the sun has set. For the next 45 minutes to an hour you will see a beautiful sky with constantly changing colours that is even more spectacular if there have been recent bushfires as the smoke particles refract the sunlight. We lived in Darwin for 30 years and our Mindil market routine used to be to take a picnic table and camping chairs with a nice bottle of wine, buy food from the food trucks and enjoy the changing colours of the sky after sunset over dinner.

I hear you Tia. I left Melbourne 6 years ago to live in Albury NSW. I can breathe! Much more relaxed lifestyle 😊

Your videos have such a beautiful, chilled vibe, and you always manage to find positive parts of each place you visit. Your kindness and inclusiveness is just lovely to watch. You have a great relationship and are 100% honorary Aussies for life :) Love the pineapples strapped in!

YAY welcome to Queensland. Did you see any beaches on the Gold Coast on the way through? Thank you for showing your vulnerable side guys, you’re not alone

I always watch anxiously in anticipation of our getting a “Tia for scale” moment. ❤️

15:14 funny you should make a comparison to Vietnam; the Australian army’s Jungle Warfare centre was in Canungra, which is in the mountains behind the Gold Coast. That’s where our soldiers going to Vietnam were trained before they shipped out.

You guys are the pure form of enjoyment , not all about the bright lights and frenetic pace of our cities.But to share the moment while just sitting on the rocks in the mountains , that is for me at least , Real ..... Great work to you both.Our two newest AUSSIES. Cheers 🍻

17:27 Mental Health issues are a feature, not a fault. We are all wired differently, and none of us come with an operator's manual. It takes time to figure out how you work, keep going. You are out in the world doing things that make you uncomfortable - that's a victory in itself. Well done.

Awwwe, sweetheart, thank you for expressing how you feel in crowded surroundings It's something many people experience and as a First Nations women, Im so pleased you found a sense of relief on that summit. Getting away from the hussel and bussel is in our blood and vitally important. So be in the moment hun. Only just discovered this channel but just loving your down to earth nature and appreciation for the simple things ❤

Once again you two made my day by bringing me along with you. This time you're in my home town of Brisbane where I spent the first 40 years of life and where all of mine and my husband's family still live. We're now in South Australia where you were when KZread popped up your video and I've been watching ever since. Tia, I love that you can express how you're feeling, acknowledge it, and keep on living and experiencing the life you and Cheveyo have created for yourselves. As long as the anxiety doesn't stop you, let it be what it is and keep on finding all of the magical moments in between.

Hope you had a nice time in Brissy. It really is a lovely relaxed city with a fantastic outdoor vibe. Did you hike Mt Coot-tha to check out the view?. The weather in winter is just perfection. Nothing better than enjoying a great coffee outside on a sunny winters day. I was hoping you would check out the architecture of the gorgeous “queenslander homes”. Also surprised when people by pass Stradbroke island or Moreton Island. It’s just stunning and a world heritage listed marine park. Ps understand the anxiety. I visited New York in 2016 and it was so hard to get out there everyday with so many people. I felt like I was having a panic attack every time I left my hotel room.

Cheveyo is guilty of over-doing his attempted aussie accent....... but it's pretty funny! 😂 I did however enjoy how Tia slipped out "brekky" as if it was just totally natural!

You two are doing and saying things so well, that I was surprised and laughed when you put on sunscreen! -To be fair, I’ve not used the spray on stuff. Keep it up though. And hats. I’m hoping Tia finds a broader brim. Oh, important!! - When you two leave the city and go bush….find a dark place on a clear sky (maybe no moon) and look up at the sky. ✨✨

I was a flight attendant for Qantas flying international and had to leave after 8 years because I got a fear of flying 7 years in. The planes were safe, I trusted my pilots and fellow staff members but my anxiety hit. After leaving Qantas I worked in many places where flying was needed to get to my office in the US, UK and Europe and I even went back to Jetstar 20 years later, so it is something that we live with but push past so to make sure we don't miss out on life. Emotions and mind talk are real and I love your travels. BTW I am now living in Brisbane and feel content with my city. Safe travels

Struth, it must be great to get away from the city roundabouts when you are out in the bush. ❤❤❤❤

It's heart warming listening to you both, I think perhaps you have both found your mojo. 💝 Strapping in the pineapples cassic !

If you come to the Gold Coast. Best beaches, are Duranbah, Burleigh, Snapper Rocks, Nobbys beach, Currumbin. Carrara markets is on the Gold Coast and is Australia’s largest outdoor market cap. Wednesday, Friday and Saturday is Miami Marketta, you will love it. Really awesome bagel place called O Bagel in Broadbeach. Wildlife sanctuary in Currumbin you can feed the Rainbow Lorikeets (parrots), Burleigh lookout. Tallebudgera creek walk has platforms to walk all through the marsh/mud plains through the river.

Most, if not all, Australians understand what you mean about our* land's vastness. There is something so freeing about feeling so small in front of something so expansive. It is liberating when you realise how insignificant we are in comparison to nature's sublime scape. It makes complete sense that Tia can catch her breath and find her peace when away from the frenetic energy of others that makes us so self-aware and self-conscious in front of them. Don't worry, Tia, we get you, and we are happy that you're able to find happiness in our landscape. *technically, our first nation people's.

You two are the absolute sweetest people. What a delight watching you travel around.

The Sun thing, the hole in the ozone layer is over Antarctica, Earth's orbit is slightly ovoid and during Australia's summer the planet is approx. 3% closer to the Sun, so always remember to screen up and slap on a wide brim hat. Loved the pineapples in the back seat, someone below suggested a postcard, good idea, there are several theme parks there maybe you could strap them (pineapples) into a roller coaster? Put faces (yours?) on the pineapples. Yeah Oz is great for being able to get away from human life and surround yourself with natures life, it really does chill you out. Quote: "A deep fried envelope filled with ham and cheese." and poof! the magic's gone 😄 Hope the next leg is fun, looking forward to it.

Forgot to say if you haven’t already ventured too far north you should def visit the Gold Coast as it is Australia’s answer to Miami! Would be interested to hear what you think

@@OnePackWanderers the Australian immigration program is opening up big time after the covid shutdown. There is admittedly a lot of opposition (house prices and rents being forced up etc etc) but Australia's economy thrives on having migrant inflows. Migrating to Australia is not as hard as one might think - especially as a "skilled migrant" if you have skills/qualifications that are in short supply.

High UV levels, low cloud cover and air pollution, and a high proportion of people of European descent drives the skin cancer problem here. My generation - seniors - never wore hats or sunscreen as kids and teens, so we figure high in the statistics. Most skin cancers are basal cell or squamous cell - I've had both - but deadly melanoma levels are high and most of us have annual skin cancer checks. I expect Australia's skin cancer levels will drop thanks to skin cancer awareness campaigns that began in the 1970s, schools requiring kids to wear sun hats outdoors, OH&S demanding outdoor workers to adopt sun protection measures and a changing ethnic mix in the country.

You guys are great, my fiancé and I just got back from a trip in Europe and as Australians it's lovely to see our country through your lens. We need to explore our own backyard more!

I know it goes against the whole concept of spray on stuff but if you spray that sunscreen in your hands first it's much easier to apply.

Glad you are having a good time, and getting to relax in nature. Don't worry Tia, everyone has issues they have to deal with. Cities can be quite stressful. :-) Not sure where you are now, or if you are heading to Cairns or going inland before then. if you do go to Cairns, the esplanade water area is nice and free. But the waterfalls around the atherton tablelands are great to get away from the crowds. (weekdays) you can swim at some of the waterfalls.

03:07: yes one of the common styles we have is Italianate architecture, but don't worry about any of the technical stuff, they're just names and we have different vibes for them based on our own local spins. Brissy is good for its vernacular styles like queenslanders, though they were derived from South East Asian adaptations. Also global-phenomenon Bluey is set here 😉 And yes, places that don't put cars above humans are just, well, better for people. Though when you do want to escape, having good urban design that is compact (dense so it isn't the most sprawly in the world as our cities are) with easy access to green spaces is key, while there will always be those pristine natural spaces in between. Tasmania will be great for nature 🍀

Now you’re heading my way. Good time of the year to be coming north. Weather is great. So glad you’re enjoying the open spaces. Keep safe.
