Something a little different

Alice_L, Mar 2026

Highly recommended to people who are interested in leaning aboriginal culture of nations living close to the Gold Coast. The dreams passed down generations by generations share the wisdom and knowledge from the ancient time to today. We also experienced the body painting culture on our arms, which patterns represent different meaning for different nations. If you are interested in something a little different, visit here!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

We’re delighted that you enjoyed learning about the rich Aboriginal culture, stories and knowledge of the Gold Coast region, as well as participating in the ochre experience. It was a pleasure welcoming you to Jellurgal, and we truly appreciate you sharing your experience with others. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!
