Mudgee (mud-jee) is a hidden gem located northwest of Sydney. The name derives from the Wiradjuri word ‘Moothi’ meaning “Nest in the Hills” and as our graphic designer Tanya recently found out, this small town is a refuge for those trying to escape the madness of the big city. Here’s a snapshot of Tanya’s stay in Mudgee.
