It’s been an extremely challenging period for our friends in the travel and tourism industry, so it’s been great to do our small part to help raise their spirits with our annual Readers’ Choice Awards. We were particularly thrilled to see Melbourne recognised as the Best Capital City Destination in Australia for families. If anyone needed cheering up, surely it’s those who live and work in the Victorian capital. We can’t wait to return to this vibrant metropolis and catch up with friends down there. Big congrats to all the worthy winners of these awards!
Road trips, motorhome holidays, holiday parks and camping are certainly the most popular family getaways right now – so we’ve given them all some love this issue. But we’ve also thrown in some aspirational stories about Thailand, Sri Lanka and the Greek Islands, the latter of which regular contributor Flip Byrnes took the opportunity to visit, after finding herself stranded in Europe during the pandemic.
