I hugged koalas and fed kangaroos at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on the Gold Coast.

The first stop of the six-day, five-night self-driving trip to the Gold Coast is the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. It is even more worthwhile to bring children with you. Not only can you hug koalas 🐨, but you can also feed kangaroos 🦘 It is a wonderful thing to get close to small animals... If your child is younger, they cannot hug the koala by themselves. They can only buy a photo with the koala. This one is not so good because I didn’t take a photo of myself [Facepalm] It is much cheaper to buy it online one day in advance than to buy it on site. It is also recommended to go early so you don’t have to wait too long to hug a koala.
