Snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef
I finally have travel things to report on after so long ‘living’ in one place, even if it is Australia. I don’t think I ever made things clear, but since mid-February, I’ve been working at a country pub in Central Queensland. Specifically, Anakie. 44kms west of Emerald, and belonging to a group of three towns [...]
East Coast Australia by Instagram
So. I might be one of the worst travel bloggers out there. I kind of just left you all hanging. Not that I’ve been up to much these last few months…. The important information that I did forget to announce was that I was traveling the East Coast of Australia for two weeks! Oops. Well [...]
My Favourite Brisbane Experiences
Now, I know Brisbane doesn’t have the best reputation. You’ll hear “it doesn’t have charm!” “It doesn’t have nightlife!” “There’s nothing to see!” I won’t dispute these claims. It doesn’t have the beaches of Perth, the history of Sydney’s The Rocks or the restaurants and cafes of Melbourne. But after living there for two months, [...]
*Guest Post* Planning a round the world trip: What to remember (and what to forget)
This is a Guest Post. Anyone who tells you planning a round the world trip is easy – is lying. Or, they are a super awesome organizer. In which case – I’m a little jealous. I’ve just finished organizing my round the world trip (which I leave for in two weeks!) and I’m so ready [...]
Based in Bangkok for a Southeast Asia Jaunt
I’ll admit it’s been over a year since I was last in Southeast Asia. It breaks my heart to say it. I fell in love with Asia, and Thailand was one of my favourite countries in the region. Thailand is a natural starting point, and flights to Bangkok are some of the cheapest and easiest [...]

There’s a new blog trend going around the Canadian travel blogger circuit called “This is my Canada”. Audrey from That Backpacker tagged me and I”m sure you are all waiting with baited breath to hear about my favourite things in the Great White North. I’m also legitimately from the far(ther) North (as in Prince George – [...]
Lucky you! It’s another Instagram post! As if you hadn’t seen enough Instagram photos from Sydney, Brisbane, Fiji, the farm…..These ones chronicle my time in Byron Bay. There was some fantastic weather, an ex-tropical cyclone, a very sweaty walk to the lighthouse/Cape (gingers and heat/humidity aren’t the best of friends), and the discovery of the [...]
One of the things I miss most about Western Australia is the amazing sunset. Being on the East Coast now, I don’t get to see so many stunning ends to the day. I lucked out in Byron Bay a few nights ago, and a walk down the beach ending in a surprising stunner of a [...]
I’ve been living in Brisbane on and off for the past two months, since I got back from Fiji. It’s been an interesting time. Quite dull at some points, amazing fun at others. But here’s some photos from out and around Brisbane. I’ll post more on the city at some point, but my blogging tendencies [...]
If you’ve ever been to Nadi, you might be familiar with the ‘backpacker row’. Situated on Wasawasa Road between the airport and Nadi proper, it has the whole range of accommodation: the decent Smugglers, the family-owned, and the horrifying Bamboo (the last one makes me seriously question online rating systems). But if you head up [...]
