Melbourne may be the most liveable city in the world, but every once in a while it’s good to get away. Thankfully the Yarra Valley is less than two hours’ drive from the CBD (even on a Friday at 5pm). One of Australia’s top wine regions, the Yarra Valley beckons with promises of wine, cheese, […]

If your weekend didn’t include wine, chocolate and cheese, did you even have a girls’ weekend? I’m going to say no. Thankfully, my recent glamping excursion in the Yarra Valley had all that and more.

48 hours: What to see, do and eat in Coral Bay
On the west coast of Australia, 11.5 hours north of Perth, sits a cute town called Coral Bay. It’s a tiny little tourist town set on the Ningaloo Reef. When I say “set on” the reef, I mean you can take a few steps off the shore and you’ll stub your toe on it. Ningaloo […]

After leaving hot, dry Exmouth, I was ready for a culinary adventure and booked a Swan […]
