Mission Beach, two hours south of Cairns, is the paradise you thought you’d lost – an epic stretch of palm-fringed coastline, beachfront cottages, a handful of great cafes and restaurants, rainforest walks, mesmerizing sunrises and the chance to spot a cassowary. Pure […]
There may be some of life’s troubles and forms of malaise that aren’t able to be remedied, or at the very least eased, by an Australian beach holiday, but I can’t think of many. When my consistently kind and thoughtful sisters let […]
South Africa has so much to offer. It’s a shame not to visit another side of this spectacular country whilst you are here. We decided to extend our African holiday with a break in Stellenbosch in the Cape Winelands region. Stellenbosch is […]
It was March 2020 when our trip to Botswana was abruptly cancelled due to the march of COVID across the world. Thankfully we have always booked with And Beyond travel and they kindly kept our credit going through the dark years. When […]
I had never heard of Langkawi Island. But this was to be the site of my husband’s recent work trip and luckily I could go too. This was our first overseas trip since 2019 and I was grateful that we would not […]
Sometimes a holiday is so sublimely, uniquely and searingly transformative, restorative and uplifting that one’s life is unequivocally and forever richer for it; in the days, months and even years after the well-deserved time of much-needed repose and adventure has taken place. […]
Do you do magic My niece Bianca stayed with me recently and apart from teaching me the benefits of vegan eating she also introduced me to a little secret and I am about to let it slip. It all began when we […]
I always love the preamble to a walk or trek. Even the unsaid things hold something magical to me. The build up of excitement at breakfast, the loading of carbs, wondering what the weather will bring despite the forecast and whether I’ve […]
I’d like to make a not-so-secret confession. I was never going to be disappointed by a holiday to North Stradbroke Island (or “Straddie” as it is affectionately known by the locals and return visitors alike). Situated in the picture-perfect environs of the […]
Recently we travelled to Warwick for a family wedding and discovered a friendly and attractive city filled with great cafes and historical country pubs, rose filled streets and a rich history. To local indigenous people Warwick is known as Gooragooby. It’s […]

After our first night in Winton, we were picked up by our affable tour guide Jaimie at 7:45 am in a purpose-built vehicle that navigated the rough terrain without any problems or discomfort. Our journey took us through the red soil […]
Many travellers can relate to the cancellation of trips and tours; ours to Europe in early 2020, to Tasmania in mid-2020, and to Sydney to see La Traviata in early 2021, so my husband Geoff and I made the bold decision to see […]
Most of us are talking about travelling within Australia given our OS travel restrictions and there is an abundance of glorious options that are inexpensive. I recently arrived back in Queensland after a trip to Sydney to attend a writers group […]

Tasmania is full of endless historical towns but hidden gems can be missed if you don’t do your research. When ‘mainlanders’ plan to travel to Tasmania they often focus on the midlands and southern areas centered around Launceston and Hobart. Little […]

As I am writing this today, I would be, sans COVID-19 pandemic, arriving in Brisbane from a wonderful trip to Rome, Malta, Milan, Berlin and Frankfurt. I would relish experiences new and old. I would be jet lagged, faced with the […]
