There are some places in this beautiful country, where you have to pinch yourself that they are actually real! I mean, look at those colours.

Have you been to Karijini National Kakadu National Park? in Western Australia?

The rugged red rocks from Karijini National Park ❤️

As you stand amongst the ancient geological formations of you feel awestruck at the red layered cliffs that line the spectacular gorges eroded by nature over billions of years. 😍

How stunning is ??? I had the pleasure of visiting here last week, whilst on the beautiful City of Gold Coast.

When you think of this part of , art galleries certainly don't come to mind. However, it really is a wonderful place to explore, and the kid's room is next level. We had lunch at the rooftop bar with spectacular views.

So, if you fancy doing something a bit different, besides hitting the beach, check out HOTA. (Home Of The Arts) on the Gold Coast!

Spending a few days in the for work... Sat in a bar people watching from the roof terrace on the beach ⛱️

Checked into my hotel earlier and was offered a free glass of champagne 🍾 while I waited... thought I'd give it a try as it's been years since I had any, thinking my taste buds may have evolved... nope! It still tastes like vomit!! I tried... I really did 🤣

It's been a tough so far 🤩

We had a great mini break and loved spending time together.making memories together 😍 !

Near the top of my "must-see" was visiting Ben Boyd's Tower. Located in the Beowa National Park, it marks the start of the Light to Light walk which is 36 km 🤔 I highly doubt we'd have finished the walk, but we at least wanted to walk part of the way. So this gave us the perfect excuse to be lazy 🤣😁

Is Eden on your south coast bucket list?

It’s been a while since I’ve loaded a new post on my blog, due to my full-time job as a bury travel agent. However, these past 2 weeks I’ve been forced to slow down and do nothing – literally, as I have pulled my back out. It’s the worst pain I’ve ever experienced, and I feel completely useless.

So, to keep me occupied I’ve been writing some new travel posts, and live on my blog right now, is about my trip to the spectacular visit to York Minster, one of England’s best cathedrals. Head on over to my blog now and check it out. Don’t forget to leave me a comment. LINK IN BIO.

My family and I recently went for a walk to North Heads in Batemans Bay. We had to walk up a bit of a hill, on a pretty warm day, and when we got to the top, we were treated to these incredible views of the south coast.

You’ll need a car to get out here, and probably a 4-wheel drive wouldn’t hurt either as you’ll have to drive along a dirt road for about 20 minutes before you arrive at the car park. Totally worth it!

Have you done this walk before?

Last week I spent the night in Canberra for work, and I stayed at Novotel Edition Canberra. It’s a great hotel on Northbound Avenue in the heart of Canberra. They have this awesome mural in the lobby area, which is so fun to pose in front of.

Live on the blog this week, I’m sharing my trip to on Australia’s Gold Coast. It really is such a fun place to visit, with plenty of thrill-seeking rides, shows, and entertainment while you’re here.

Regardless of your age, there’s lots to see and do, which means it’s fun for everyone.
Think you can’t have fun unless you go on the rides? Think again! I didn’t go on a single rollercoaster the whole day and still managed to have a ball. Wanna find out more? Head to the link in my Bio now to read all about it.

You could think this is the Caribbean, but no, it’s the beautiful Emily Miller Beach in Batemans Bay. Located in Murramurrang National Park, just a 20-minute drive from town, my daughter Aria and I with some friends tackled the Wasp Head Walk along the headlands, following the track down to the beach, which took us around 20-30 minutes from the car park.

When you arrive, you’ll be rewarded with views like this, with a stunning beach, and some wicked caves to explore!

While in Brisbane earlier this year, my family and I headed to the Disney Exhibition at the fabulous Museum of Queensland in the cbd. It was great to see some of my favourite movies behind the scenes, and getting to look at some of the original sketches, stretching right back to Steamboat Micky to the more recent Encanto.

If the travelling temporary exhibition comes to a city near you, it’s well worth checking out.
