And by that I mean, it's okay because it isn't. It's okay that we don't know. It's only natural that we can't comprehend. It's confusing. It's painful. It's lonely. And it's okay. My most favourite thing that I've read so far amongst all the noise these days is this, "The answer to the question everyone … Continue reading Everything is Okay.
I almost missed it. I read the schedule wrong. I was looking at Monday’s classes instead of Sunday's. I was late to leave due to a complete emotional meltdown, and to cap it off, I forgot my tickets that I needed in order to get into the class. I nearly stuck with the sentiment of, … Continue reading Namaste
I finally watched it. The documentary, Minimalism, that is. A lot of it I’ve come familiar with because of the whole having quit my job, sold my possessions and moved to a 'foreign' country bit, but I have to say…even with the items I have here, and in thinking about the few boxes I’ve left … Continue reading Minimizing | But in a Good Way
Let's be clear: I've taken one surf lesson (for basically one hour) in my entire life, so when I say things like "yah, I surf now," ignore me, haha. THAT SAID, the one and some hour(s) I was out there proved challenging yet incredible, and there was a lot that resonated with me while I … Continue reading Surf + Turf | Lessons Learned
Well guys, I've made it. Another trip around the sun. Another set of amazing experiences to look back on, and an added roster of incredible people for whom I am so lucky to have had enter, and find their place in my life. I'm another year older, and another year wiser. This past year I … Continue reading Another Trip Around the Sun
I have an actual confession to make. There has been a massive, pervasive part of this journey so far that I have actively omitted from sharing. I have been posting, projecting and pretending that for the most part, everything is great. It’s beautiful, it’s warm, it’s sunny and “amazing.” And though all of those things … Continue reading Confessions of a Solo Traveller | Part 3
"In nature, nothing transforms without breaking first. Flowers can't bloom until they're deeply, wholly rooted. Seasons can't turn until the cold has come and killed off the remnants of the past. Butterflies don't spread their wings before being cocooned in isolation for weeks, stars don't become supernovas before facing their own implosion..." You know, sometimes … Continue reading Confessions of a Solo Traveller | Part 2
What I thought I knew about Margaret River was completely turned upside-down once I got here! Yes, there are vast and amazing vineyards and wineries producing fantastic, though smaller-batch-than-Barossa products, but the region itself is vast, and also showcases unbelievably beautiful beaches, world-class surf points and a culinary scene that is not to be overlooked. … Continue reading Margaret River | More than just Amazing Wines
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
I've been very fortunate in my life. I won't use the term "lucky" because there has been a lot of hard work from a lot of people (myself included) to get me to where I am today. But I definitely feel grateful for all that I have been able to see, achieve and experience to … Continue reading Course Correct
