Caz and Craig have been traveling and living around the world since 1997.
The fire crackles and pops beside me. Soon we will be cooking our evening meal over it and warming ourselves on an Autumn evening under the stars. The afternoon air is warm and invites me to sit under the canopy of a red gum. The breeze, although refreshing, is not enough to shoo the flies away. Their pestering is not enough to have me wishing I was anywhere else but
On my trip to Western Australia I got to experience several of Perth’s Restaurants, which was great as food is one of my favourite things about travel. Here is my list of three Perth Restaurants to try… Greenhouse Greenhouse, located on St George’s Terrace, is one of Perth’s hot destinations. The first thing you appreciate is that it’s a very interesting building architectually, and the concept is about operating better
The Hunter Valley is one of Australia’s most famous and popular wine growing regions. It is only a two hour drive north of Sydney, which makes it a very attractive destination for any traveller. There’s beauty in the valley and surrounding Broke Mountains, there’s fine dining, world class wines, gourmet chocolate, adventures like hot air ballooning, and relaxing spa treatments and massages. Believe it or not, there is also something
This post is sponsored by Nuffnang Kangaroo Island My parents don’t stop talking about it. They visited Australia’s third largest offshore island in South Australia two years ago. They say it is one of the most beautiful places they have visited in this land of ours that is full of natural wonders. It’s a place to get away from the hustle and bustle; a sanctuary for wildlife and a haven
I’m sure everyone can rattle off their favourite Italian dish: lasagne, pasta, gelato, and coffee to write home about. If you have ever had the opportunity to visit Italy, I am sure you can recall the time you first bit into that “authentic” Italian dish, and your mouth melted. Mine was in Bari, on the East coast of Italy. We were staying there only because it was the place where
Darlinghurst, Sydney never used to be the trendy and expensive area that it is now. It used to be full of illegal shenanigans: bootlegging, laneway gambling, buzzing brothels, drugs, and bloody razor gang fights. Two notorious razor gang leaders from back in the twenties were Tilly Devine and Kate Leigh. Not your typical ruthless leaders, but they fit the role beautifully, frequently instructing their members to slash those who got
Margaret River is many things, and there is something there for everyone… Being a lover of wine, beer, and food I was extremely excited that a visit to the world famous Margaret River Region in Australia’s South West was on the itinerary. One of the reasons I love to travel so much is to experience the food, the wine, and the atmosphere of a place. Life’s simple pleasures. But the
It was hard to believe that we were paddling on one of the world’s busiest harbours. All that could be heard was the gentle splashing of the water as the oars sliced through it from one side of the kayak to the other. Megan and I, friends only since yesterday, already had fallen into a silent rhythm softly interrupting the stillness of the air around us. “The water is like
This is a guest post by Kellie O’Brien from Three Li’l Princesses From renowned chef Tetsuya Wakuda creating mouth-watering dishes using Tasmanian Atlantic salmon, to Neil Perry featuring wagyu beef from the state’s grass-fed cattle in his restaurants, there’s one pretty obvious reason to visit Tasmania. In the North West, we can easily spend a day meandering along the highway taking in all manner of good food. You may just
It was only during my recent stay in Sydney with fellow travel bloggers, Abigail, Megan, and Gary that I realized a rather unsettling fact. Tourists to Sydney don’t know or understand the dangers that come with this stunning harbour of ours. I realized it was my responsibility to WARN those wanting to travel to Australia. Sydney Harbour is full of sharks. YES. And bull sharks at that. One of the
