100 things you can ONLY do in australia

 

 

 

 

 

 

In this, the third instalment of our “100 Things” series, we set ourselves the greatest challenge yet. A double challenge, really. First, we set out to present for you 100 amazing things you can only do in Australia – be it marvelling at a geological oddity, interacting with a critically endangered species or any one of a number of one-of-a-kind experiences. That’s not as easy as it sounds. But through the research process we found that Australia holds a remarkable number of world records for the biggest, widest, tallest, densest, fattest, shortest, fastest, slowest, most and rarest what-have-yous . . . gather all these together and you’ve got the beginnings of a truly valuable document designed to inspire people to see their own country and appreciate just how lucky we have it in Australia.

The second challenge was to ensure that this 100 could stand on its own two feet. Therefore, we were determined to exclude anything we’d covered in previous instalments – the 100 Things To Do in Australia Before You Die and the 100 Great Things To Do In Australia You’ve Never Heard Of – unless we could profile it with a genuinely new twist.

Yep, before we’d even started we’d declared 200 truly amazing and fantastic experiences to be off limits. The search for our new 100 had just become a lot harder. But we figured there was more value for readers this way. And now you can consider this issue – in conjunction with the two previous ones – as a comprehensive, three-tiered travel bible that may never be topped. At least, that is, until next year.

But one last thing before you write in to tell us all the things we overlooked this time around (which, by the way, we enthusiastically invite): remember – this list is in no particular order. We’re not suggesting, for example, that No. 04 (catching a wave on the world’s biggest surfboard) is better than No. 55 (witnessing the world’s largest gathering of Utes). Each entry carries just as much weight as any other. And nowhere in the world but Australia can you see, do or treasure these 100 amazing things.

Hopefully that alone will be enough to make you want to start right away. So, as always . . . see you out there,

3번째 선정목록은 호주에서먼 할수 있는 100가지 것들이다.

가장 빠르고 가장 느리고 가장 높고 가장 조밀하고 가장 넓고 가장 두껍고...등등

이전에 선정한 목록과 겹치지 않게 했으며 나열순서는 중요도나 다른 것과 아무 상관없이 무순이라고 한다.

 

그런데 내용을 하나하나 살펴보니 낚인게 한두건이 아니다. 더 크고 더 높은건 중국이나 미국에 있다는 등...

그레서 제목을 다시 봤다. Only do in Australia ?  호주에선 이것만 하라 ?

그럼 내가 Do in only Australia 로 착각한거구만.
