Review of Hiking in Australia

Just a funny concept from the get-go... a guided group of travel writers go hiking in the Australian outback!?! It references the reality of this likely common but absurd frame. It really captures how hiking is about thinking... or rather "time away." Exploring how travel says more about who we are as Westerners than about the local culture or place we are visiting. I love the grasping/searching for something feel of this piece, it puts me inside the experience. Great piece.
