Quite a while ago now I was tagged in a travel blogger series by The Little Backpacker (read her interview here) that was doing the rounds called ‘5 Cities I Would Return To’, and obviously, me being me, I started a post for it, and then promptly forgot all about it until just now. So … More 5 Cities I Would Return To
So I’m back in Sydney. Wow. How fast did those 3 months go?! It’s insane how quickly it went – honestly it feels like just yesterday we were getting off the train in Taree and arriving at the farm, very excited and a little bit nervous about all the things we’d be doing. And what … More Photo Of The Week: From Farm Life To City Life
So I know I’m a few days late with this and we’re already 4 days into March but here’s my monthly spending summary for February 2014. Also can we just take a minute to focus on the fact that we are now into the third month of 2014…the THIRD?! how has that come around so … More Monthly Spending Summary: February ’14

By the look of their logo I’m guessing they’re trying to reference a humpback(packing) whale, but even so, I don’t really get it, although seeing as they are located in the … More Hostel Review: Hump Backpackers, Sydney, Australia
I’m going to assume that you, my lovely readers, all know that I flew halfway around the world at Christmas to spend a couple of weeks with my family on a luxurious holiday in Mauritius, so I won’t go on and on about how much of an awesome time I had. But, well, I did. … More A Road Trip To Byron Bay & Then What?!
This week summer has finally begun in Sydney! Tuesday was a glorious sunny day, so we headed off to the Botanical Gardens for a picnic of sorts. When I say picnic I mean we had a picnic blanket, drinks, and no food, so I’m not quite sure if that actually counts as a picnic, but … More Photo Of The Week: A Perfect Picnic
I’ve been living in Sydney for a little over 2 months and to be honest it’s been a bit of a whirlwind. I can’t quite believe it’s almost December already! We came here fresh from camp, full of excitement for another summer and a year of new friends, new jobs and new experiences. And that’s … More A Life Update: Jobs, Fun And Living In Sydney
This week I took a trip with some friends to Bondi Beach to stroll along the coastal path that runs all the way between Bondi and Coogee beaches, about a 3 and a half hour walk (or 8.8km). Nicknamed ‘Sydney’s Best Coastal Walk‘ for a reason, this is a great way to spend a morning, … More Photo Of The Week: Sculpture By The Sea
