Whilst it is "normal" to travel long distances in Oz I think the downside of doing so is you miss the details that you might otherwise find if you took your time.
When we visit relatives it's 350km one way.
I've been driving to Canberra on a regular basis, that's 742km one way.
I would dearly like to stop and explore some of the places along the way but there's little time for that (besides safety breaks) because it bites into time spent at the destination.
From a radio perspective and since we're at the arse end of the world (Who said that?) I suppose you could say that a southern hemisphere DXCC is more difficult to achieve than a northern hemisphere DXCC.
