🚗 Road Trip Gem: Albury, Where NSW & VIC Shake Hands

This border town made us fall in love with Aussie small-town life—friendly locals, zero stress, and unexpected wine wins! Here’s why it’s a must-stop on your M31 drive: 🍷 Why Albury? ✨ Everyone says "G’day"—no homelessness, just pure country kindness. ✨ $7 local dry white from Woolies? Shockingly good! ✨ Dinner for 4 ($277 AUD): Gourmet flavors without big-city prices. 🛣️ M31 vs. A1 Highway M31 (Inland Route): Golden grasslands, lone gum trees, and hypnotic open roads—easier driving with cinematic vistas. A1 (Coastal): Save it for a month-long slow-travel adventure (beaches > wheat fields). 🌄 Albury’s Magic Sunset pub chats > nightclubs Waking up to cockatoos, not traffic Realizing: "Wait… do I wanna move here?" #AlburyLove #M31RoadTrip #AustralianDream #SlowTravelAU #WineFinds 🍇
