My Journey

Travelling a laptop lifestyle – Switzerland, France and The Netherlands (Western Europe)

Next three destinations is the discovery of Western Europe as we continue to travel into the middle of the continent! More bus time, more planes and not a lot of sleep – but that is what it is all about right?

Lauterbrunnen 

The Swiss Alps, wow, incredible, amazing, beautiful – these are some of the words I said a lot during our two nights. The mountains were vast and tall and the snow caps made…

Travelling a laptop lifestyle – Italy

The country of pizza, pasta and wine, what more can you ask of Italy really? A few things about Italy when you are visiting the major cities, it is crazy busy and things do not really move fast – so be prepared!

Over the week in Italy, we toured around experiencing Venice, Rome and Florence. A lot of history and a lot to learn when visiting all these cities, but the highlight? Of course the food!

Travelling a laptop lifestyle – Austria, Poland, Hungary and Slovenia (Eastern Europe)

Nothing says good morning like a wake-up call at 5am for an early morning flight. It would be fine usually if I didn’t go out to 2am and wasn’t still in my clothes from the night before, but hey, that is travel! 

Vienna 

Next stop was the beautiful Vienna – the most liveable city in the world (beaten by my home Melbourne this year). I do understand why, at least they have a train from the…

Travelling a laptop lifestyle – Sail Croatia

Sail Croatia, all I can say is WOW and there you go, that is the end of the blog. 

No, only kidding, but if you are thinking of going to Croatia, do it. 

Just living the best life

We landed in Split after a 14-hour flight to Dubai and an 8-hour flight to Rome. Add an 8 hours stopover in Rome (which we stayed around the airport that whole time) and then you land in Split.

Mindfulness – 10 ways to be a mindful while travelling

    When we travel, whether it is on a road trip down the coast or a 16-hour flight halfway across the world, sometimes we forget to be mindful.

There is something beautiful in everything!

The term “mindful” can mean whatever you think it means. For me, it means taking in the experiences, immersing myself in the destination but also developing personally along the way.

Take everything in!

So how…

How to spend 3 days in Hobart

    Okay, so how do you make the most of a long weekend? Go to Hobart. Next question, how do you make the most of three days in Hobart?

This place turned me into a Tassie devil

Well, recently I went to Hobart for a three day getaway with my housemate Abbey (Abigail) for the generous Queen’s B’day and here’s how I did it (with cheap flights and accommodation).

Mindfulness – adapting to the change in weather!

    Whatever season is your favourite, it is often hard to adapt between the two. If you are coming into summer right now, in my opinion, lucky you!!

As for the southern hemisphere (well mainly Australia and New Zealand), yay for us as we come into winter – and no I don’t actually mean that.

However, we don’t all love summer and we don’t all love winter. Whether you are a hot or cold weather…

Travelling Victoria – Bright and surrounds

    Wow, beautiful Bright. It didn’t take me long to realise why everyone loves this place.

If you’re heading to Bright on a long weekend, or like I was, Easter long weekend, expect traffic and loads of it. What was meant to take 3 and a half hours nearly took 5 – probs my fault for the cheeky KFC stop which took 30 minutes waiting for food.

Love those autumn trees!

Anyway, not the point, it was…
