It has become ever more apparent to me that I become rather grouchy when I’m beginning to feel settled, and want to jet off to the next location and explore more of Australia. In the break between Christmas and New Years (Hogmanay, if you’re from Scotland), we decided to borrow our friend's car (thank you Lachy) and drive out west.. along the great ocean road.

The flat Christmas party
The flat Christmas dinner had been planned for a couple of weeks, we all had our cooking roles and we all had our own traditions we were going to bring to the table. As our flat currently consists of 2 Kiwis, 1 English, 1 Scot and 1 Scot/Aussie we had a variety of traditions which we all wanted to include. But there is one very important thing that Australian Christmas does not include, Pigs in blankets.
Victoria Secret CANCELLED – has PC gone too far?
Does Victoria secret really have to jump on the inclusive bandwagon? Should plus size brands be including petite sized women? As I feel that is the argument the world is having.
The most easterly point of Australia and all the Hippys
Byron bay was definitely one of my favourite places we visited on this trip, (so much so I forgot to take a lot of pictures!!!) it was a super hippy, surfer town. Lots of wacky colours (do the Aussies spell colours with a u?) vintage shops, and crazy dudes but it was so nice. It is also home to Chris Hemsworth’s family mansion (we considered searching for it but it seemed to be amongst the rainforest and quite secluded - very, very sad times).
Dolphin spotting in Noosa
I honestly believe Iain and I have been extremely lucky in our wildlife spotting, proof is in my last post Kangaroos and a Sunrise - Cape Hillsborough (promise of Kanga pics) and then in the post before that The Whitsundays - Australia travels continued.
Kangaroos and a Sunrise – Cape Hillsborough (promise of Kanga pics)
If you’ve been following my trip down the east coast of Australia you will maybe have realised there is a lack of Kangaroo. I honestly thought kangaroos were going to be everywhere (probably very naive of me).
