Q. Where can you see kangaroos on a beach? Sleep under the water in the middle of the world's most colourful reef? Stalk 50kg birds in an ancient forest, rent your own private isalnd, kayak one of only two everglades in the world, or learn how to spear fish with a First Nation guide?
 
A. Queensland - home to a rich diversity of wildlife, beautful beaches, perfect weather and a vibrant and delicious food and wine scene.



 
So is this Australian State really the best place in the world to vacation?
Our guest, Shelley Winkel, reckons it's so and ExtraVirgin Food & Travel Podcast host (and proud Queensland resident) Natascha Mirosch is inclined to agree.
