A lot of common sense things, but some tips that maybe I wouldn't have thought of as well. My favorite thing about it though - what a great sense of humor Sorrel has. Yes, sarcastic at times...so even more up my alley :-)

Fun book to read and it has inspired me to travel around Australia! It is maybe a little outdated but most of the information is still relevant.
