The Gold Coast is one of Australia’s most developed and commercial tourist locations. Once nothing more than sand fly invested swamp land, it is now highrise heaven, with a multitude of places tourist can stay. From Hippy to High Society. I am keen to interview a lady from the Gold Coast’s social set. Someone with all the trimmings of wealth. Infiltrating this scene may prove difficult for a scruffy struggling film maker, but I have a few leads and a bucket full of charm, so anything is possible. I managed to organise an interview with editor of the Gold Coast Magazine, Jenni Purdy. If anyone knows the gossip on the Gold Coast Social set, Jenni does. Accommodation : www.nomadsworld.com

Travel DVD about Australia www.overlander.tv Overlander.tv is a great way to find out about different locations by meeting a local person in a short free online travel video. Overlander.tv is a unique concept whereby you not only get to see some of the World’s top tourist destinations, but also ‘meet the locals’ and find out why they choose to live where they do. Part documentary, part travel series, Overlander.tv is more cerebral than celebrity, more about the faces than the places. The films are produced by Australian Independent Documentary Filmmaker Mark Shea- ‘The Overlander’ Filmmaker’s Premise For me, this project is about finding good around the world, good people, a common thread of humanity and hospitality, regardless of cultural differences.

Travel Video - Australia : Airlie Beach (pop. 3029) Airlie Beach, gateway to the Whitsunday islands has a reputation for being a great place to party, in between sailing trips to the islands. Another must stop location on the backpacker migration up north. Had a ball in Airlie, went out on a boat yesterday to snorkel the reef.
