Really, more time than a long weekend is required to savour all Montpellier has to offer, from the cobbled streets, to culture, to architecture and history, so although we only scratched the surface, we would like to share our experience. Like many locations in...
TRAVEL
A long weekend in Noosa
For many years Noosa was a favourite destination for our family, whether it be for a week in school holidays or just a long weekend. It is just over an hour’s flight from Sydney. We were drawn by the exceptional natural beauty, the relaxed yet sophisticated style and...
A guide to Bosnia and Herzegovina
Sometimes it is the removal of something that may have been taken for granted that makes us appreciate it more. In this case, we are referring to the loss of freedom to travel. Whether this be to visit loved ones, to take much needed respite from the ever increasing...

The Ultimate Luxury Escape: AARUNYA RESORT
When we arrived in Kandy after the incredibly beautiful (yet incredibly long) train ride from Ella, we had no idea what a treat we were in for. We already had high hopes for Aarunya resort from seeing the photos on their website and scrolling through their...
3 days on the Great Ocean Road
Having had this highly acclaimed trip on our bucket list for some time, we can truthfully say that our expectations were exceeded. We drove through ever changing landscape from the expansive ocean to dense forest and grazing pastures, stopping to see iconic sights...
Top 5 healthy cafes in Melbourne

California, or as it is becoming known, #KALEfornia is an absolute haven for acai-loving, green juice drinking, kale chip eating individuals, such as myself. This was very clear after a short stroll down Union street and Chestnut street in San Fransisco where every...
48 hours in Santa Monica
With only a very short time to spend in Los Angeles, we decided we were best to focus our time on really getting to know the area we were staying, Santa Monica, rather than trying to see everything... I had no idea LA was quite so big, and everywhere we put in maps...

Where to get your Açaï fix in London
Finding a good acai bowl in London can prove a tad difficult. I would guess it has a little something to do with the climate and the fact that normal people would have porridge or something hot for breakfast… But not me, I am always on the hunt for my daily acai fix....
Tulum Travels
With our limited time in Mexico, we had chosen Tulum (pronounced Teloom), as our first stop and headed there straight from the airport - it is about an hour and 30 minutes drive. The trip itself was underwhelming, not very scenic until we approached Tulum and...
Paperbark Camp
Slowing down to be in harmony with nature is not easy in modern society. We are immersed in constant stimuli with our busy city lives… Even when we sleep, there will often be a steady hum of traffic; low levels of external light often seep into our bedrooms and we are...
