I stumbled across Lake Navarino on Instagram some time ago. I love finding new places to explore and that is why I have an Instagram obsession. So when some friends asked me if I wanted to spend a weekend at Lake Navarino Holiday Park I didn’t hesitate to say yes. That and the fact it has been almost 3 months since we have been camping. Hard to believe I know!Read More »

What to expect on a Contiki Tour
This post has affiliated links.

My first time travelling solo was on a Contiki tour through Europe. I wanted to get a taste of Europe before I starting working as an Au Pair in England. Contiki is a group tour targeted at 18-35’s. Rumours were flying that Contiki is all about people getting drunk and performing crazy antics.
I made myself a promise, I was not going to party all night and sleep all day on the bus. I didn’t want to miss the scenery as we drove across Europe, I wanted to soak it all in. But was this a promise I could keep?Read More »

This month I have decided to change things up and share ten of my favourite Instagram photos from the past month.
5 Awesome things to do in Mt Barker, WA

Mount Barker is a place I have been visiting for 40 years. A place where my Grandfather farmed and generations before and after him still farm the land. It feels like home.
When you mention Mt Barker to Perth folk they usually say that is where the chickens live! Sorry to disappoint but you will not find free range chickens roaming the street or popping into the pub like the TV ad.
However if you are looking for an authentic country stay with spectacular scenery and delicious wine, then this is the place for you.Read More »

I am doing Plastic Free July

After watching a documentary on the ABC called War on Waste it made me think about how we live our lives. How we have become a throw away society. My family needs to change its behaviours so we can protect our environment for my children and future generations.Read More »

Ten on Ten: Green
On the 10th of each month I share 10 photos taken in one day. I have never been one to follow the rules (unless I am cooking then I always stick to the recipe) so I am snapping pics over several days.
I had been thinking about getting a DSLR camera for a while as I enjoy taking photos. Usually I hand to the camera over to my partner Dixie as he has an eye for photography. Finally I decided to splurge and spend the money. I purchased a Nikon D3400 but my new toy was soon hijacked by Dixie on our recent camping trip!
