Welcome to the Winter edition of our online magazine, MBGC
The temperature has dipped, just enough to layer up, and winter has quietly made itself at home—as much as it can on the Gold Coast!
In this edition of MBGC, we celebrate the season with stories that make a crisp winter drive feel like a getaway and spotlight the local moments worth slowing down for.
For Driver, we meet Sanctuary Cove Golf and Country Club CEO Paul Sanders on the green with the all-new Mercedes-Benz G 580.
For Space, we take a look inside Simonds Homes’ Hinterland 58, a home that doesn’t just house an art collection but enhances it. And for Dispatch, we journey to the pearl of the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka, a destination that promises adventure, beauty and unforgettable wildlife moments.
