Adelaide's hidden treasures
If you’re looking for interesting, accessible things to do as the weather warms up in Adelaide, here’s a few ‘hidden treasures’ worth a look.
Books you have to read before you die!
Reading is a great way to escape the real world, immerse yourself in a magical fantasy, feed the brain, and also a great thing to do when you need to take time away from social media and technology.
