Byron Bay: A Four Day Getaway

31st May 2018

Byron Bay: A Four Day Getaway

As the cold begins to creep in here in Melbourne, the draw of escaping somewhere tropical gets all the more enticing. Back in April, Olivia and I finally decided it was time to travel North and chase the sun. Byron Bay had been on my bucket list long before I arrived in Australia, so I couldn't wait to dust off my Birkenstocks and get myself to the ...

Reverence Hotel, Footscray

3rd September 2017

Reverence Hotel, Footscray

Although my exploration of the Western suburbs of Melbourne has been somewhat limited - I don't think I can count staring out of the window on my commute to the city for work - I am slowly discovering more and more hidden gems. The latest is Reverence Hotel in Footscray; a venue known for their live music and Mexican food, with a menu that can ...

Sister of Soul, St Kilda

28th April 2017

Sister of Soul, St Kilda

I've already professed my love for one vegan hotspot in St Kilda, but after a trip to Melbourne a few weeks ago to visit a friend down from Sydney, I've got a new place to add to my love-list; Sister of Soul.  Their menu is entirely vegetarian, but it has an amazing selection of vegan dishes available. They even make their own house ...

Edgar’s Mission

19th April 2017

Edgar’s Mission

If we could live happy and healthy lives without harming others, why wouldn't we? Back in February, Olivia and I took a road trip out to Lancefield, Victoria, to visit Edgar's Mission; a non-profit farm sanctuary for rescued animals, with a mission for kindness. We were taken on a guided tour around just a small part of the vast 153 ...

Sunrise Over Bondi Beach

9th April 2017

Sunrise Over Bondi Beach

Now that winter is well and truly setting in out here in rural Victoria - and I'm woefully unprepared with my lack of warm layers - I can't help but spend my time daydreaming about the long, hazy beach days back in Sydney. We visited quite a few beaches in our four months there, from Manly to Coogee, Cronulla and of course, ...

Sydney: Favourite Spots to Eat + Drink

Sydney: Favourite Spots to Eat + Drink

Having spent four months living in Sydney, it's safe to say I did my fair share of eating and drinking. We arrived with good intentions, cooking beans and rice in our hostel kitchen, but there is temptation everywhere. Frugal eating lasted about a week. After that, my bank balance took a considerable beating, but I was at ...

Let’s Catch Up…

17th February 2017

Let’s Catch Up…

It's been 8 months... How did that happen? Well, for the sake of easy reading, let's keep this catch up brief. There's some big changes and a lot to tell. Since I last blogged way back in June, I packed my bag and moved my life from the UK over to Australia in September, with a lovely little stop in Bali on the way. We lived and worked in ...
