Happy Father’s Day to our number one.
We love you. 🥰 😍

Throwback to our last day in Tokyo when we took Gracie to
She started off a bit overwhelmed, but after a couple of hours, she was riding the Carousel, hugging Minnie Mouse and loving life.

We’re going to miss the views of the “Choo Choo trains” from our window at the but it’s time to leave.
Honestly, if you’re looking for near flawless accommodation in Osaka then this hotel is where you want to be. It’s in Namba, so a very short walk to all the amazing food and vibrancy of the Dotonbori and surrounding shopping streets.
The hotel staff were so welcoming and accommodating, absolutely spoiling Grace with treats and smiles. Nothing was too hard or unsolvable.
Our only hiccup was Grace not being allowed in the pool as they restrict usage to kids 6 and up, which wasn’t clear to us at the time of booking. The pool was a major reason for us booking the hotel, so definitely a disappointment, but the staff did their utmost to make up for this.
It definitely was an interesting learning curve as many hotels in Japan have restrictions on kids using the hotel pools - something we didn’t know about! From now on, I’ll always call the hotel to confirm pool access prior to booking when travelling with kiddo in tow.

An autumn day with my girl. While Dad shops, we play in the leaves!

Happiest of birthdays to this guy.
My one and only, my personal chef and Dad-extraordinaire.
Matt, we love you more than we could ever express in an Instagram caption. Keep being you, forever. Which coincidentally is how long we will be loving you for. ❤️

As our very warm Autumn in Sydney cools down and we draw closer to winter, I’m dreaming of the whitewashed town of Ostuni in the Puglia region of Italy.
What I wouldn’t give to be strolling those bright white alleyways and taking in this view again.

This kid is definitely a fan of Easter. From first tastes of chocolate, to a love for bunnies, Grace’s second Easter was a whole lot of fun. Here’s hoping yours was too! 🐣❤️

Saw a few people using this trend as an alternative to New Year’s Resolutions and loved the idea.
Obviously my number one goal is to be the best mum to Gracie, but I’ve also realised it’s important to carve out time (where I can) for myself.
That might be as simple as getting to the gym, taking a walk or practicing some self care - like a face mask or a haircut!
Of course, I’m also excited to see what travel in 2024 brings. Having a little one definitely means more planning is involved, but our mammoth Euro Trip in 2023 proves that Gracie is a born traveller! 🩷

Here’s your sign to book a trip to Italy’s magical Puglia region.
The little hilltop village of Locorotondo might not get as much love as its nearby friends Alberobello and Ostuni, but, oh wow,does it warrant a visit. 🤩
One of my favourite things to do in Europe is wander through the laneways of the old towns and Locorotondo has the perfect maze of quaint, decorative alleys to get lost in.

Absolutely cannot get over the colours of Malta. The capital, Valetta, is so uniquely beautiful and the buildings are so well maintained with vibrant paints making each window and door stand out.

I truly still cannot get over the absolute paradise we experienced staying at in Sliema.
This hotel will always have a special place in my heart, because it is here on this balcony with the most wonderful view in the background that asked me to be his wife.
Malta was already a special place in our hearts, but now it’s even more precious.
Anyone looking for absolute luxury in a boutique hotel in Malta, you’d be wise to check out Land’s End. We loved it.

Marsaxlokk is this dreamy little fishing village in Malta, about 20 mins drive from the capital, Valetta.
We might be all smiles in this picture, but we’d had a nightmare of a bus trip just before this point where Grace screamed her head off - all part of the adventure of navigating travel with kiddos.
Luckily a beer and some food were all we needed to get her back to her cheery self.
Definitely add this quaint village to your bucket list - you won’t be disappointed.

There’s just something about pretty doors that gets me.
Lucky for me, Basel delivered big time.
These gorgeous displays were on full display in the old town of Basel.

We absolutely loved the super cute Polybahn in Zurich. This funicular railway takes you from the central square up to the university terrace. A ride takes next to no time at all; you're up the top admiring the sensational views in around 3 minutes. There's a ticket machine at the base of the funicular, so getting a ticket is easy - it's a great way to see the city from above and truly appreciate its beauty. .

Dreaming of being back in Puglia.
This region of Italy is packed with incredible towns, all with their own unique charms.
An absolute must see are the Trulli houses of Alberobello; strangely beautiful conical houses that put this town on the UNESCO world heritage list.

Matchy matchy.

Here’s your sign to visit Lecce, the gorgeous baroque city in Puglia. Often called the Florence of the south, this lovely city is full of history and even boasts a Roman Forum in the town’s centre that dates back to around the first century AD. This amphitheater remained undiscovered until the 1900s! . Just an hour’s train ride from Monopoli, Lecce is an easy city to visit on a day trip, but there’s also plenty to entice a longer stay! . #romanamphitheatre #lecce #ilovepuglia #visitpuglia #visitlecce #pugliadaytrips #explorepuglia #girlswhotravel #familytravels #southernitaly #historicaltravel

Five reasons to visit Monopoli in the Puglia region of Italy 🇮🇹: 1. The Adriatic seaside - a mix of rocky and sandy beaches perfect for sunbaking (in my case sunburning 🤦🏼‍♀️) or swimming 2. The seafood - Puglia is home to some of the freshest seafood going around and Monopoli definitely showcases this in their wonderful restaurants. 🦞 3. The white-washed old town. Need I say more? This dreamy white town is the stuff dreams are made of. 4. The town’s churches are fascinating, particularly the purgatory church of Chiesa di Santa Maria del Suffragio where mummified remains are on display. 5. The stunning Monopoli Harbour where fishing boats line the waters and you can grab a takeaway spritz for 5 euro and watch the world go by! . #visitmonopoli #ilovemonopoli #ilovepuglia #visitpuglia #pugliagram #puglialovers #australiantraveller #cntraveler @visitpugliaofficial #girlswhotravel #familytravels #monopoliharbour

Basel is a wonderful day trip idea from Zurich. This picturesque city features a beautiful square and cathedral, accompanied by stunning views of the Rhine river. . In the early autumn heat, the waters looked turquoise-green from up above at Münsterplatz. It’s here that you can truly get the best views. . I definitely loved my tiny taste of Basel and can’t wait to visit again to explore some more. . @visit.basel #visitbasel #swisscity #australiantravelblogger #sydneyinfluencer #eurotrip23 #baselautumn #baselswitzerland #ownthemap #girlswhotravel

I’m not sure what I expected coming to Zurich, but it sure wasn’t coming across one of the most picturesque old towns inn Europe. . In the light of the early-Autumn sun, the Limmat River appears aquamarine in colour and perfectly complements the pastel painted buildings on either side of the river bank. . Mid-September proved to be the perfect time to visit, the weather was still balmy (bordering on hot at times) and the clear blue skies made for fantastic photos. .

Sailing away on a sunny day exploring Sydney Harbour is one of the best ways to get to know the city. . And oh my gosh, doesn’t she look pretty as we sail away? 😍 . #sydneyinfluencer #sydneyblogger #ilovesydney #sydneylocal #sydneyharbourbridge #exploresydney #feelnsw #visitnsw #australiagram_nsw

A Good Friday afternoon in the sun with @lucy_orr and fish and chips. Sensational. ❤️ . #sydneylocal #sydneyinfluencer #sydneyblogger #maroubrabeach #mahonpool #australiantraveller #ilovesydney #feelnsw

Incredibly, I’ve lived less than 30 mins drive to La Perouse for over twelve months now and have never visited before. . The rock pools, aqua water and laid back feel of this little headland area make it a perfect picnic spot. . There’s plenty of short walks around the area which is encompassed by Kamay Botany Bay National Park and includes beautiful beaches like Congwong Beach . If you’re looking for a summer picnic spot, look no further than beautiful La Perouse! . #sydneylocal #laperousebeach #sydneyinfluencer #ilovesydney #sydneybeaches

Happy Monday 💙 . There’s nothing quite like the sound of the waves and a bit of fresh air to start the week. . I’ve been feeling increasingly despondent these last few days (hence the lack of posting). I guess you could say that lockdown is getting me down. . It just feels so hopeless at the moment and the road out of this will be long. . At least I have the beach. 💙 . How are you feeling beautiful people? I hope you’re going ok. 🌸 . #sydneyinfluencer #sydneytravelbloggers #sydneytravelblogger #sydneyblogger #brightonlesands #brightonlesandsbeach #beachwalks #sydneylockdown2021 #sydneylocal #sydneylife #sydneylockdown #sydneystrong #stayhomestaysafe #stayhome #getvaxxed #ilovesydney
