- Summary:
-
Modern life is hectic and most people feel wired into technology at every aspect of life. The antidote is Mission Beach, Queensland, Australia. A rare respite from modern life where simple pleasures are the priority. Learn from this collection of poems and stores about the magic Mission Beach, Queensland, Australia weaves to all that visit or live there. Local artists' work illustrates the book. Mission Beach has a diversity of residents, international and interstate visitors. Many come back over the decades, sometimes with three generations of family. Others spend years finding a way to permanently move to Mission Beach and enjoy a calmer, rewarding and fulfilled life. Sure, the endless summer weather most of the year is a drawcard, along with the pristine palm and coconut tree lined beach, the many islands not far from shore to explore and living alongside bountiful birdlife and widlife like the mighty cassowary. It is much more than the physical bounty. It is also about a genuine friendly community and the opporunity to replenish within, physically, mentally and spiritually. This book may just inspire you to seek out the magic for yourself.
