The bad news about this week is that I am still waiting to hear if I have been selected for the Kerala Express. I have been told by friends to keep waiting as last year the blogger team was confirmed quite late. I think I will visit India anyway so luckily it hasn’t changed my …
THE WEEKLY
First things first I want to thank everyone who voted for me in the Kerala Blogger’s Express Competition. I ended in 11th place and should hopefully hear shortly about my involvement in the two-week trip to the southern region of India. Over 800 people made the effort to vote for me, which blew me away …
Thanks for coming past to check out what has been going on in my life this week. Leave a comment so I can check out your Instagram, Blog or just so I can say thanks to you! This week I was hanging out at the beach, taking photos of Koalas with my friend’s amazing camera …
I went on family trips up and down the coasts of South Australia as a kid, but as I grew older the city life and metropolitan beaches took precedence. Looking back now I have serious regrets for not continuing to explore the amazing coastline and rural areas of my beautiful state. I can’t turn back …
Christmas was quickly left behind as my attention shifted from catching up with family and friends to enjoying a few of the beautiful beaches in Adelaide. Despite the incredible heat of 40 degrees on Christmas Day, the weather had been up and down since then. However, Henley beach provided a stunning sunset with a family meal on the …
I spent my first week back in Australia enjoying the Brisbane with my Grandmother. It was a great stopover on my way back to Adelaide, which is at the bottom of Australia. I caught up on a lot of editing and began working on a photo book, which I hope to release early in 2017. …
My final week in Southeast Asia was spent in a relatively unknown town called Vang Vieng. In the Northeast of Laos, Vang Vieng sits on the Nam Song River and has a reputation for parties, drugs and free alcohol. Well it definitely had all of that and more but I chose to explore the limestone …
Luang Prabang proved to be an eclectic mix of traditional french architecture, a strong buddhist monk culture and the tourism industry. For a whole week I tried piecing the Luang Prabang puzzle together, attempting to capture it’s essence and what makes the place tick. On my last night I was still at a loss and …
The week began with an arduous bus journey from Cambodia to Laos, which spanned almost three days. THE THREE DAY BUS JOURNEY Normally I would stop off along the way but I was meeting a friend in Luang Prabang on December 3rd. During the trip I rode in 12 different vehicles such as motorbikes, jeepneys, …
I’m all alone again! Jorden flew back to Australia today and I am headed up to Laos on a 18 hour van ride. Not looking forward to it but it is 3x cheaper than flying. This week in Siem Reap we got out and saw the temples at Angkor Wat complex. It is the largest …
This week I have spent my time far away from my natural habitat. Not only have I not seen a beach but not even a waterfall. Huge withdrawals right now! However, I have been wandering through markets, villages and neighborhoods observing what the daily life looks like for some Cambodians in Phnom Penh and Siem …
Boracay is well known for parties and adventure activities such as jet-skiing, paragliding, reverse-bungee and more. It is also a lot more expensive than most places in the Philippines. It is pretty much the Bali of the Philippines. Great fun but Boracay on a budget is like fighting constant temptation. Jorden and I were both …
