The Australian Tourism Board Japan Director Derek Baines will start a series of writing about Australian love on TABIPPO.NET.
The first is about its fundamental charm that continues to fascinate people all over the world and can be a lovable “second home” for Japanese people.

Australia, the second home in the world 
Photo by Tourism Australia Due to the influence of the new Corona, it has been impossible to travel abroad freely for more than a year and a half. Some of you may have had to postpone your adventure even though you were planning to travel abroad for the first time in your life.
For those who have never traveled abroad, the interesting experiences and superb views introduced on TABIPPO.NET may feel like a dream world. Unfortunately, even if family members, friends, or influencers on social media explain their memories and impressions of their overseas trips, they will be truly deeply moved unless they see and experience them with their own eyes. Difficult thing.
Also, what aspects of overseas travel do you feel nostalgic for those who frequently traveled abroad before Corona? It may differ depending on how each defines “home” or “house”.
For the Australian author (Derek Baines), the Home is a safe place to feel the affection of those around you and a place where you can truly relax. It’s a place where exciting happenings sometimes occur, but it’s a stage that expresses 100% of your life, and it’s also an environment that you can really say.
And my observation is that the home may not always be where you actually live. If you’ve been to Australia, you may find out more about the definition of this home, and you’ll see what “your home” and “Australia” have in common.

The place called home by people is at the same time There can be more than one place.
Traveling back and forth between your first and second homes is one of the most enjoyable ways to spend your time in the world. There is a sense of security that you can say “I’m home” on both the way back and forth, and you will be satisfied with both. For me, every time I land at Haneda Airport in Japan from my hometown of Australia, I feel like I’m back home.
If you’ve actually stayed in Australia and have been exposed to the warmth of the area, you may feel like a second home in Australia. And for those who haven’t traveled abroad, not just in Australia, Australia has the potential to become a familiar and second-home-friendly place.
Australia’s Environmental Protection

In fact, Australia is loved as a second home by many people not only in Japan but all over the world. One of the reasons for this is Australia’s environmental protection efforts, which have been attracting attention these days. With many emphasizing the importance of the SDGs, we have been preparing for travelers coming after the end of the new Corona for the past year and a half.

For example, Crystalbrook in seven locations in Queensland and New South Wales, where the use of disposable plastics was partially banned from September 1, 2021. In consideration of SDGs, the collection has been working to reduce the use of pet bottles and amenity bottles since the hotel opened in 2018.
Also, the cafe pods in the coffee makers in the guest rooms are recyclable, and the leftover food in the restaurant is composted. 80% of the ingredients consumed in the hotel are produced within 3 hours by car. In addition, the room key is made of wood instead of plastic, the hanger is made of carbon paper, and if you put the hotel app on your mobile phone, your mobile phone becomes a room key. Such ingenuity and effort should be pursued at any home.
Aboriginal SDGs way of life

Speaking of environmental protection, Australian indigenous peoples have a long history of more than 60,000 years and are based on environmental protection. I’m continuing my life. For them, the SDGs are not a new trend these days, but a very common concept, so to speak, they have been sticking to the cutting-edge way of life from ancient times.
Exploring the arts, spirituality, culture, history and dance of the Aboriginal people, who are indigenous to Australia, will be a shocking experience for people living in modern society in the city on a daily basis. .. In Australia, you can still experience activities based on the world’s oldest living culture in existence in various places.
For example, on Minje River Island (North Stradbroke Island), 25 minutes by ferry from Cleveland, Brisbane, Queensland, or 10 minutes by helicopter from the airport, with an indigenous guide. A traditional fishing experience is possible.
You can catch more than 5 kinds of fish such as red galley and whiting. On the beach, you can learn the history of the island from your guide and bake it with traditional lemon myrtle and wator seed herbs. You can also eat the most delicious barbecue fish. Moreover, while thinking about the ideal fishing industry these days.
Corona Severe Australia

Like the rest of the world, Australia was affected by the new Corona. However, new infections have been successfully controlled relatively quickly, and the travel industry has been able to introduce effective corona countermeasures at an early stage.
The Australian Federal Government, State Governments and Travel Industry Associations have been implementing comprehensive measures to prevent new coronavirus infections since 2020. Because PCR tests are free and easy to take anywhere, we have already completed more than 34 million PCR tests on Australia’s population of approximately 25 million. Vaccination programs are also underway, with 80% of the target population expected to complete two vaccinations by the end of 2021.
60% of the more than 12,000 powerful and beautiful flowers found throughout the state are endemic plants that exist only in Western Australia. Unfortunately, we can’t welcome international travelers this year, but next year I definitely want you to visit Western Australia’s Wildflower Sustainable Wonderland.
Western Australia alone boasts seven times the area of Japan, and is a healing place with abundant nature, so it may be suitable to call it a second home. In particular, there are many elements that are ideal for the after-corona era.
When it becomes possible to travel abroad, I would like to recommend Australia especially for those who have never traveled abroad to find a second home. By the end of your journey, you will be reborn. Furthermore, the feeling of having two homes may finally be understood. Then, like many people who have visited Australia, you will definitely want to leave the two homes intact.
In your second home, Australia, we are waiting for families from Japan.
