Regardless if you’re just visiting Brisbane or are a permanent resident, you should have a look at what’s on offer at Riverlife. With their offices at the base of the Kangaroo Point Cliffs in the heart of Brisbane, Riverlife provides an adventure experience without having to travel outside of the city.

Looking for a cultural experience

Meet Brisbane’s local Aboriginal Tribe, Riverlife Mirrabooka and experience the rich culture of Aboriginal life by watching or getting involved in activities such as:

• Traditional dancing and songs passed down to them from previous generations
• Playing traditional Aboriginal musical instruments, like the didgeridoo
• Share in the stories of Aboriginal life and the history of Australia
• Learn to throw a boomerang… properly
• Traditional aboriginal face painting
• Taste traditional foods of the Indigenous culture

The Yuggera Aboriginal Dancers have performed for audiences both in Australia and around the world, including the UK and Europe, once performing for Queen Elizabeth II.

Climb or drop

Experience the Kangaroo Point Cliffs for yourself with Rock Climbing sessions, either by night or day. The 20m high weathered cliff face is the perfect setting for a great outdoor adventure where the term rock climbing is literal, so you climb real rocks. From the top, you can take in breath-taking views of Brisbane city and the river. Climbs for all levels are available, from inexperienced right through to the most skilled climbers.

Prefer descent to ascent? Then try Abseiling instead. The extreme rush of abseiling down the glorious cliffs, will put a smile on the face of any lover of adventure. If it’s your first time, don’t panic! Qualified, experienced instructors will help you the whole time.

For water enthusiasts

If you are more interested by water activities, book in for a guided Kayak tour and enjoy the city from a different angle. Paddle your way up or down the river and see some of Brisbane’s most impressive features from the water. Kayaking is available both day and night, and Riverlife offer special packages such as Friday Night Paddle & Prawns and Saturday Night Paddle & Riverside BBQ. If you’ve done all this before and are a experienced paddler, then hire a kayak and take it out by yourself or with an experienced group of friends or family.

Given the number of years pushchairs have been around, the variety in designs and styles of pushchairs available in the market today is astounding. You can find them in every type, size, design, and colour and with a variety of features to suit babies of every age.

Buggies are the simplest type, which have a rugged design, are easy to carry around and store, and are also foldable by construction. However, their main drawback is that they cannot be used for very small infants, as the level of padding and comfort they provide is adequate only for toddlers, who are slightly more grown up.

A step up from the buggy is the forward facing pushchair. Some varieties offer even fully reclining seats, which can be used for infants. Their only drawback is the fact that they are fully exposed and could be slightly risky in some situations.

Some pushchairs are multi-functional, with a combination of pushchair and baby car seat, which are great when travelling. These eliminate the need to buy the two items separately. However, these again are not useful for very small children who tend to stay in the sleeping position more often.

If you want a pushchair you will use for a longer time, get the two-in-one type of designs. These chairs can be used as a bed-type pushchair for small infants and adjusted to become forward facing seats as your child grows older. Their disadvantage however is that they are slightly heavy and not so easy to manoeuvre.

All types of pushchairs are available for sale online and can be found using search keyword “pushchair pushchairs“.

Cyprus is and island that is well know for many centuries of great traditions, but to most of us simply know it as a great hotspot, which has made it a very popular destination with tourists, with over 2.4 million visiting the island each year. The island receives over 330 days of sunshine a year, which has given it the name The Island of the Sun. There is no shortage of travel companies offering Cyprus holidays and low cost airlines including Monarch offering routes to Paphos and Larnaca, it has never been easier to get there.

While attracting visitors from around the world, most of them tend to be Europeans. Affluent eastern Europeans and Russians have also joined the crowd in recent years. One of the main reasons why there is such a heavy presence of Brits in Cyprus is because of the positioning of the British Armed forces in the southern Greek part of the island. With quick and easy access to the Middle East, this is likely to be the case for some time to come. The impact of this on the surrounding area is that Cypriots have grown used to, and in turn, now cater for the Brits. English is widely spoke and understood among nearly all age groups to driving on the left side of the road. A major attraction for many Brit tourists is that the island offers all of the comforts and familiarities of home, but we also get to bask in the sun.

Much of olden Cyprus is giving away to culture that is more eclectic and less traditional. However, this side of Cyprus, that continues to attract millions of tourists year after year, is only one aspect of the island and is concentrated around the tourist hotspots of Paphos, Larnaca and Ayia Napa. As soon as you leave the packaged paradise and clubbers haven of these areas and hit the road the real country reveals itself.

If your fancy cooling off, and seeing something different take a trip up to the Troodos Mountains. In the heart of the mountains you will find the Kykkos monastery, a UNESCO world heritage site since 1998. Housing art and exhibits on ancient Greece, the monastery has the twin function of being a museum for visitors and a practising monastery lived in by worshiping monks. Kykkos even has its own winery where the monks bottle and sell their wine. A daytrip to the Troodos Mountains can be a welcome change from the beach and with overnight accommodation available in many of the authentic villages dotted about; you might want to spend a few days here sampling another side of Cyprus.
