What a precious stop! I learned along the way that Albany is the oldest town in Western Australia, settled even before Perth. There is a lot of European influence here in the cities of Albany and Denmark, and seeing as that’s basically the golden standard for me (I love Europe and it’s varying cultures, foods, … Continue reading Albany + Denmark | A Simple Slice of Heaven

Esperance | Beacher’s Paradise
So you know how they say West is Best? Seemingly that rings true for both Canada, and Australia. The beaches and the coastline here are simply unparalleled. Every single stop we make it seemingly just gets better and better. And right when you think it can't possibly get any more beautiful - it does. Staying … Continue reading Esperance | Beacher’s Paradise
South Australia to Western Australia | Itinerary
Well, this is where the going gets good. Having to pull away from my beloved Barossa Valley (I'm still working on the wine + cheese I bought there, and I've since also added some specialty honey and home-grown olives to my loot from Denmark - but I'll get to that later).

Barossa Valley | Wine + Cheese, Please

The one thing that really … Continue reading The Great Ocean Road to South Australia| Itinerary
Melbourne | Don’t Miss List
I'll try to do one of these lists per city! Really it's just a compilation of my fave stops along the way, so take it for what it is (I'm not actually out here doing serious R&D on the where to's or dont's) but hopefully this can act as a solid guide and you can … Continue reading Melbourne | Don’t Miss List
Melbourne | Things I’ve Learned So Far
Well, I've made it! I've managed to endure a 100 degree temperature swing moving from -40 and into +40 weather, and I have to say despite a mild sunburn and a few reactions to the heat I'm liking it on this end of the spectrum! I've been in Melbourne ('Mel-bin' to sound like a local) … Continue reading Melbourne | Things I’ve Learned So Far
