My reasons to stay in Melbourne are to use it as a base for exploring surrounding regions such as Grampians National Park, explore wineries in the Yarra Valley and visit Dandenong ranges ,lazing on beaches on the Mornington Peninsula and drive the magnificent Great Ocean Road . I spend my nightlif…

Ok, so sitting at home with Katie and Lisa today, looking through their dozens and dozens of photos from their trip to India the first time, and we agreed that maybe there won't be long enough for me to do everything in 3 and a half weeks.  So the plan is to go in to work tomorrow and ask my i…

Bungle bungle or Purnululu National Park the most impressive parc I never see!!! More in the North you can ride camels on the beach.

We have arrived in New Zealand and although we are feeling like zombies from the flight and losing a day in time (how? I mean, just how?), we are loving Auckland. It is gorgeous, sunny and really different to home and the people are so friendly. We have also enjoyed fish and chips, yep thats right,…

Lori is one of my best friends. I met her last year in London. We are the same arrived, had arrived in London on the same day, and had all the same desires and aspirations for our time in the UK and EU. With Ruby, the 3 of us became best mates and spent so much time together. Whether it was downing…

 OK, so first arrived to Auckland and after one night went down all the way to Invercargill and to Stewart Island in order to start at the bottom south of N.Z and find my way up north. It's a fun walk, takes about 10-11 days with a big bonus: you can expect getting into knee deep mud! fun! an…

This morning Ali found two lambs that had been completely mauled. One didn't have a head, and the other was badly gutted. It seems Mr Fox had been on the prowl again that night. I forgot to mention that during the week we also cleaned out the cabin and the houseboat a few times. Brimin Lodge has …

We left my home heavy hearted, as all my family really wanted us to stay on longer, well we had originally planned to stay over Christmas, and I would have loved to share this experience with Giao. However then we did not know our luck of becoming parents yet. Of course it changed things; all of m…
