Kauai, Hawaii - A perfect weeklong “layover” with friends filled with beaches, hiking, and even a last minute country concert.

Home of The Crocodile Hunter, The Great Barrier Reef, kangaroos and koalas, and much much more, Australia is an interesting place to say the least. I for one really want to experience the culture like a true Aussie by living there for a full year. Even if it takes 12 months, maybe I’ll even learn to like Vegemite. Anything could happen.
