LEE MYLNE — Travel writer Lee Mylne confesses that she travelled more before she discovered she could make a living from it than she probably does now, when there are deadlines to be met. ~  Lee writes for magazines and newspapers around Australia, and is the author of several books including "Frommer's Australia from $50" and "Frommer's Complete Guide to Australia". Born in NZ, she has been based in Queensland for the past 16 years and is in her second term as President of the Australian Society of Travel Writers.  ~  Whether it's a weekend away in south-east Queensland, a short break across the Tasman, or a journey to some of the world's most exotic locations, Lee promises something to whet your appetite for travel on her pages.
