Freed journalist Peter Greste has said it feels "incredible" to be home after being in an Egyptian jail for 400 days.

He told a press conference in Australia: "I've dreamt about this so many times and the reality is nowhere near what I imagined it to be, it's so, so much better.

"I really want to thank everyone who has been involved with this campaign - from the many hundreds of thousands of ordinary people who joined the campaign to the diplomats and politicians.

"To everyone who has been involved along the way I want to say an incredible, heartfelt thank you."
