It’s my first trip to Darwin.
Arrived just in time for the annual
Darwin Festival. The city has been
transformed into a magical tropical
wonderland. With a big emphasis
on the arts & traditional indigenous
culture. Darwin is a high energy,
young, and multicultural city.
Well worth the visit. Perhaps on the
way to Kakadu, and even Uluru.

Great post! Thank you for sharing all of this!
(Last year I was on the ‘New humans of Australia’ FB page and there was this great story about a Syrian refugee who has started a restaurant in Darwin, and was getting rave reviews…well actually, he and his family had a food van at the time and were hoping to start a restaurant…anyway, I don’t remember the name, but if you happen to stumble onto this place…their story was so inspiring.)
