I share family travel, camping, road trips and destination inspiration to help you explore Australia and beyond with confidence.
Adventures on The Murray River
Victorians seem to be extremely passionate about the Murray River, they always talk about the area so fondly. Since I met Dixie he is always reminiscing and telling me stories about the river, his mates house boat and ski racing. I am sure some of these tales grow taller!
I had to check out the good old Murray River for myself so we headed to Echuca which is the closest town from Melbourne located on the banks of the Murray. It is Australia’s longest river, it spans over three states, Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia. In the 1800’s it was the busiest inland port with paddle steamers ferrying supplies along the river. These paddle steamers are now one of the main attractions in Echuca so naturally we took a ferry ride down the river.Read More »
Three of my top snorkelling spots
Water is something I have always loved, I don’t know if it was because I grew up in the bush hundreds of kilometres from the beach. I craved family holidays spending weeks at the seaside just wasting the days away, I think this is when my love of the ocean grew.Read More »
Tips on camping while pregnant
I have been camping several times while I was pregnant, the last time I went I was 33 weeks when we stayed at Sandy Cape. So many women said to me there is no way they would go. Was I doing the right thing? I must admit I was nervous about going, what if something goes wrong? what if I go into labour early? what if we can’t get to a hospital in time? There were so many what if’s going through my mind.Read More »
Little Gum Nuts
Little Gum Nuts is a nature inspired education program that is held at Yanchep National Park. Recently we attended a play and learn session which was just brilliant.
First of all we were greeted by the teacher Lee-Anne, she is wonderful with the children and so calm. She allows them to explore, experiment and be hands on while educating them at the same time.Read More »
Giveaway – Grobag
When I am camping with a baby I worry about keeping them warm at night until I discovered Grobags. With a portacot you are unable to tuck blankets under the base of the cot so I was forever worried they would come uncovered during the night. Lets face it some times when you are camping it can get a little cold at night!Read More »

Working in the Travel Industry
The travel industry is diverse and made up of many different sectors including travel agents, tour guides, cruising and the list goes on. I have ten years of experience working in travel and most of this time was working at a wholesaler. A majority of people don’t know about travel wholesalers, basically they are the middle man between the travel agent and the travel supplier.Read More »

Munglinup Beach is a place that took us by surprise with its crystal clear water and white sand. We had no expectations when we went there as we knew nothing about the place.Read More »
