Brisbane -
A nice place to live, and…
On the way into Brisbane from the airport you pass a billboard that boasts that Brisbane is Australia’s ‘most liveable city’, which is great for the residents, but what about the visitor? Many travellers see Brisbane as the place you have to go to before hopping north to the Sunshine Coast or south to the Gold Coast. Yes, it is only an hour or so from either ‘Coast’, and a few days in BrisVegas, as the locals call it, can be rewarding.
