Podcast conversation with Drew Kluska.
Have your cheeks ever hurt from smiling too much? That’s what happened to me on the show with Drew today. I love his creativity, vibe, and passion for his home country of Australia.
Australia is an absolute must for people who are active, a bit adventurous, and who love good food and wine, wildlife encounters, overwater and underwater activities, beautiful hotels in incredible settings, and meeting fascinating people who want to share their passions. I first went to Australia for my college graduation present and fell in love with the country. Now I can’t wait to take my kids.
