“She has achieved something that hardly anyone dares to attempt: She travelled around Australia- on a scooter! 59-year-old German Sylke Muzyk spent a year alone, without any support vehicle, just with a tent, sleeping bag — and a great sense of adventure. 15,000 kilometers are now behind her: from the start in Perth via Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, up to Queensland, through the North and finally back to the West Coast. Today she is back where it all began: in Perth.
