Diving the Great Barrier Reef has been cemented into my bucket list for years. I love everything about the ocean. It calms me down, it excites me, it fascinates me. You’ve probably heard scientists say that we know more about…

Are you planning a getaway to the quirky city of Melbourne for the first time?  There’s so much to do and see here that I can promise you, it won’t be your last visit. It’s famous for its street art,…

Nothing, and I mean nothing has saved my bacon more than my phone has when travelling. I have no sense of direction, I’m one of those horrible people who can’t speak another language (despite promising myself year on year that…

Tuk-tuks, street food, markets, temples… welcome to Southeast Asia in all its bustling, hustling glory! During the past few years I’ve spent about 6 months over 2 different trips travelling around Southeast Asia and I love it! Before my first…

What’s the biggest backpacking challenge? Finding your way through an overland border crossing? Getting directions when you don’t speak the language? Searching for a hostel that’s cheap but not horrendously cheap? Nope, none of these. It’s figuring out what the…

Some people fall into the eat to live category, but I am 100% the live to eat type. My biggest expense in Australia is definitely food. I LOVE to eat and I really love to eat out. The only problem…

Toowoomba really does have a LOT going on. There are the many gardens and parks, tonnes of street art, stunning nature and a whole lot of food. Even though I visited for the very first time recently, there’s a huge…

Planning an amazing road trip around Australia and looking to try and stick to a budget at the same time? WikiCamps is a super handy and customisable app that allows you to find campsites all over Australia. Without it, It’s safe to say,…

Turning my Honda CR-V into a camper during my time in Australia was the best thing ever. Not only was I able to live out my cliche Australian road tripping fantasies and get the ultimate taste of freedom that only…

Just a short drive from Brisbane you can find yourself in a whole different world. High rises and busy roads are replaced with sudden peaks springing up from the ground, birds singing away and plenty of winding walkways to clear…

Up until a few days before I visited the Central Coast, I’m ashamed to say I’d never heard of it. But now, I’m making it my little mission to put this beautiful spot on the map. It’s somewhere that I…

I don’t think there’s anyone out there who doesn’t have some kind of ‘bucket list’. Whether that includes visiting certain places, doing some crazy things or even doing something that scares you! For me, seeing in the New Year in…

Phnom Penh is a fantastic place to spend a few days. It’s often just a whistle-stop tour or one that gets overlooked as people aim for Siem Reap with the iconic Angkor Wat temples, but it’s a bustling Capital City with…

Bangkok is one of those cities that has absolutely everything going on. If you want culture it’s there, If you want a bit of 21st century sleekness it’s there and if you need a city escape to some greenery it’s…

When Tom and I stopped in Brisbane for a few months we made a list of everything we wanted to do while we were there. Some of them we managed to tick off earlier on such as visiting the weekend…

Less than an hour’s boat ride from Bali, you reach the much quieter islands of Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan. These small islands are definitely growing in terms of tourism but they offer an escape from the well established Bali. Things…

I’m going to start this post by telling you that I am not a hiker. Sure, I like going for walks along nice smooth beaches and walking through cities with flat pavements, but hiking just requires so much more effort.…

If you’ve ever listened to the radio in South Australia then you would have heard their jingle that goes ‘discover the secrets of South Australia’s Limestone Coast’- and you know what, it’s so true. The east coast of Australia between…
