Byron Bay, Australia Travel Video Guide

July 22nd, 2011 25 comments

Travel Videos – Australia : Byron Bay (pop. 6130) It seems every backpacker must make the pilgrimage to Byron Bay. Once the centre for peace, love and alternative lifestyles, now home of a growing number of baby boomer ‘seachangers’ from capital cities down south. With this new mix, Byron is evolving, (and the real estate prices are going through the roof). Arrived in Byron Sunday night. Byron attracts creative types and also has a huge collection of practitioners of alternative health therapies. To try and capture this I am interviewing John Dahlsen an artist. John makes a daily trip to the beach where he collects plastic waste washed up the night before. From this waste he creates art pieces. I found his art to be like a double edged sword, I was both astounded by the beauty of his art, and repelled by the thought it was all collected from our beaches.

          Oprah Winfrey’s decision to bring her talk show to Australia later this year is a major coup for tourism, the Federal Government says. To celebrate her 25th and final season on air, Winfrey revealed overnight she would be flying 300 audience members to Australia for an eight-day, seven-night trip – Oprah’s Ultimate Australian Adventure – in December. “We’re going to Australia, we’re going to Australia!” Winfrey told the audience who clapped, cried and hugged.
