A Sunday Outing in Brisbane

I’ve been living in Brisbane for most of the past decade, but I’ve always lived more in the outer suburbs, so heading into the city for the day really still has that feeling of a proper day trip out. It’s kind of an old school thing, but for us it is exciting to get dressed [...]

Queenstown and the Remarkables at Night

Today's travel photo is a night shot of the city of Queenstown with the Remarkables mountain range in the distance in New Zealand. I actually took this photo from the holiday park we were staying in with our campervan after spending the afternoon and evening in town. Queenstown is a beautiful spot at any time [...]

The Road to Mount Cook in New Zealand

It has been 11 years since I last visited New Zealand, so a return trip was well over due. It would also be Veronika's first time in the country, so I was keen to show her why I love New Zealand so much. We only had 8 days for this trip, so I decided to [...]

Lake Pukaki in New Zealand

Today's travel photo is of Lake Pukaki, looking north towards a cloud covered Mount Cook on the South Island of New Zealand. You may think that I have photoshopped the hell out of that lake, but I actually haven't. Lake Pukaki really is that beautiful colour, having being fed from the melt water from the [...]

48 Hours in Melbourne

Melbourne is a city that I took way too long to go and visit. I'm Australian born and bred and have lived here all of my life, but in my 32 years I had never gone to Australia's second largest (and some would argue, most popular) city. This year, I finally changed that, and I [...]

Church of the Good Shepherd in Lake Tekapo, New Zealand

Today's travel photo is of the Church of the Good Shepherd in Lake Tekapo, New Zealand. This is the first photo I have posted from my recent trip to New Zealand's South Island. This tiny church on the shores of Lake Tekapo is a popular site and has to be the most famous church in [...]

Downtown Melbourne in Photos

I've been to Melbourne several times. Most of those times were in transit at the airport but I also drove through it on my way across Australia a couple of years ago, however I've never had the time to stop and have a look around, so I've always considered Melbourne to be a city that I [...]

Flinders Street Station in Melbourne, Australia

Today's travel photo is of Flinders Street Station in Melbourne, Australia. I only had a short time in Melbourne but it was long enough for me to find out that I really liked the city. Melbourne has some beautiful old historic buildings, but the most iconic would have to be Flinders Street Station. I took [...]
