Australia
Continent #5! Big, clean, safe, empty - that's how I think about Australia. Similar in size to the continental US, there are 305 million fewer people (though that is balanced by 25 million more kangaroos). Incredible beaches that stretch for miles with no one on them, except for Bondi Beach on Christmas Day, the busiest beach I've ever seen! And after 20 minutes navigating through Sydney on Day 1, I had the driving on the left side of the road thing totally down by Day 2. I'm ready for more AU roadtrips! Definitely a country setup to cruise and explore. I'll be back!
