It’s no secret that we are total foodies. So on our recent getaway to Byron Bay, I knew exactly where we would be heading for breakfast one morning! I’d been following Combi Byron on Instagram for ages and drooling over their smoothie bowls, raw cakes and healthy goodness every time they posted new photos. It was a long weekend, so super busy although I expect they are busy every day because their menu is so incredible! Combi has an organic menu, home-made nut milks and…
London has a world class cultural scene that features some of the world’s best museums. For those who work during the week or are always busy on weekends, you’ll be quite happy to hear that many of these museums stay open late at least one evening a week. The late night museum scene ranges from new exhibitions to bar openings, live music, performances, workshops and much more! A number of the museums require advance bookings, so start planning your late night London culture fix now!…
Dan and I have had a huge year, we moved across the world, got married, honeymooned in the Maldives and Sri Lanka and a month ago purchased our first home! It certainly wasn’t an easy process but thanks to our organisation we didn’t end up too stressed. We are loving being homeowners but there are also a lot of important administrative things we need to do in order to keep on top of everything! Sorting out your life admin can be tough but also super satisfying…
It’s been over 10 years since rules were introduced around taking liquids in your hand luggage when flying, but even the most frequent of flyers can get confused by the restrictions! When we lived in the UK we became pro’s at travelling with only carry on luggage as we lived close to Gatwick and we would fly with EasyJet, one of Europe’s best budget airlines. Whether you are going on a jam-packed city break, a spa weekend, or a luxurious long-haul holiday, downsizing your toiletries…
After travelling and living abroad for the better part of my twenties, I am really enjoying settling down and making a home back in Australia. Whilst we still have plenty of travel plans, both Dan and I find we are also craving some normality and a place to call home. Last year we saved a lot and purchased the beautiful furniture I’d always wanted and it’s so nice to come home from work and appreciate what you work so hard for. Obviously you need more…
In the latter part of last year I finally made the move back home to Australia after a few years gallivanting around the world and two years living in the UK. This time I bought Dan home with me. Luckily thanks to our awesome Aussie way of life, our seemingly endless summer, sunshine, surf and beaches it didn’t take much convincing to get him to move to the other side of the world. One of the things we were most looking forward to in Australia…
2016 was a magical year for us, we left the UK, moved to Australia and along the way managed to tick off 12 new countries! It was really hard to narrow all the incredible experiences we had down to just 10 but somehow we managed to and can’t wait to share them with you all! 2017 will be a different year of travel for us, we won’t be ticking off 12 new countries as we’re now living Down Under but look forward to visiting at…
The last weekend in October saw the Tastings on Hastings festival returned to Port Macquarie and saw our beautiful, coastal town filled with three action packed days that would delight any food lover! Tastings on Hastings is the regions premier food festival which showcases our regional farmers, artisans, food producers, wine growers, brewers, restaurants and cafes. It was a fantastic weekend that saw almost the entire community out and about, enjoying the sunshine, supporting local businesses and indulging in delicious cuisine!
Last Sunday was the Port Macquarie Beer & Cider Festival and the organisers literally couldn’t have ordered better weather for the day! Set against the gorgeous backdrop of the beautiful Hastings River, Westport Park was transformed into a family friendly festival with the aim to “celebrate all the good things in life; beer, cider, food, games and music” which it certainly did! With the sun shining we made it our mission to (between the three of us) try as many of the fifty different types of…
Rome, The Eternal City is one of the most majestic cities in the world and without a doubt one of my favourites! We visited Rome together in 2014 and both loved every moment exploring the ancient sites, strolling the cobblestoned streets and indulging in incredible Italian cuisine and fine wine! On our recent visit, Rome was without a doubt the busiest I have ever seen it in all my times to the city and so whilst we still ticked some of the sites off our…
