Secrets on the Lake - A Little Bit of Heaven in QLD

One of my favourite experiences in Oz was a night in one of the wooden cabins at Secrets on the Lake, a beautiful, family built and run getaway. The cabins are individually styled with different names and a quirky, natural ‘theme’ to match. We stayed in the ‘Lizard’s Lair’ which had a...

Oh I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside!

Get away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Sydney with a trip across the harbour to the area of Manly. We really enjoyed this relaxed side of the city, with it’s pedestrianised shopping street, cafes, fish and chip shops and, of course beaches. Manly is surrounded by water being...

Camping at Cotton Tree

Trying to save a few dollars we decided it’d be a good idea to take our tent to Australia. Unfortunately we never seemed to make it to any camp sites, instead staying at hostels and with a friend. The 2 nights we did manage to pitch our tent, was in a site in scenic Cotton Tree. This...

It's A Bit Fishy....

Get up close and personal with sharks – but with the safety of a pane of glass between you - at the Sydney Aquarium. To be honest I’m not a big fish fan as most sea life scares me, but my boyfriend really wanted to visit so I put on a brave face and tried not to look too disturbed by the...

The Pink House - Nice Colour but not a Great Stay

With such a choice of hostels in Sydney, it can be a bit hit and miss picking one and sadly our stay in The Pink House in Kings Cross was more of a miss… I chose it because it was pink (I know, I know!) but was instantly alarmed when I needed to change the booking date and only got a...

Cheap and Chic Shopping in Brisbane

I love shopping and I love cheap shopping even more, so for a discounted bargain, I also loved my visit to one of the DFO factory malls. A local friend took me to the Brisbane mall which is near the airport and houses mainly fashion outlets. All your high street favourites are here, from...

Save a Few $$ with a Day Tripper Ticket

If you plan to be travelling about in Sydney a fair bit during the course of a day get yourself a Day Tripper travel card. For $16 these give you unlimited travel on the city’s trains, busses and ferries and are well worth it if you plan to do a spot of spread-out sightseeing. Whilst not...

Better than Bondi

If, like me, you’re one of the many visitors to Bondi Beach who felt a little let down by the over-populated sand and lack of atmosphere, restore your faith in this wonderful part of the world by strolling along the Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk. This scenic path meanders along several km of...

Crafty Cotton Tree Market

Whilst not exactly something to rival the Porte de Clignancourt in Paris, the Sunday morning ‘flea’ market in Maroochydore still made for a pleasant, if somewhat misleading, wander. I must admit I was let down by the sign that I saw on Saturday night claiming ‘Flea Market here Sunday...

Pontoon Bar - Darling Harbour Views at an OK Price

Good looks, good views, cold beer and decent food don’t often come with a bargain price tag in major cities, so we were pleasantly surprised to discover the $10 and under food menu at Pontoon on Cockle Bay Wharf. A chic and airy bar in this prestigious part of the city would cost a fortune...
