Authorities and experts are urging travellers in Australia to follow critical safety and survival measures when venturing into remote areas. It follows the case of a young German backpacker who was recently found after surviving in the vast West Australian outback for 11 nights. 26-year-old Carolina Wilga, who hit her head after losing control of her van, wandered away from the vehicle and battled freezing temperatures and scarce resources before being rescued last week.
