Flying Down Under is a compilation of travel experiences and reports from the writer about multiple trips to Australia. The main theme is the search for the 'feel of Australia'. The writer not only wrote her own impressions down, but also interviewed Dutch immigrants and spoke to several actors from The Flying Doctors, among which Robert Grubb. She also followed the real RFDS on the job. The stories are entertaining and informative at the same time. Flying Down Under is the perfect way to travel to the country of 'No Worries' without leaving your comfy chair.
