I was really excited to head back to the Northern Territory, this time to explore a new region and parts of the Top End which I hadn’t yet made it to. The Northern Territory is truly is one of my favourite places in Australia and the world; the natural beauty, culture and that night sky are all second to none.

Today in the Courier Mail with thanks to Linda Silmalis. helloworld x Insider Journeys. “While Laos is often foolishly skipped by travellers, those who do venture here often come for one of two reasons – to learn more of its wartime past or to spend time with its elephants.”

“I wonder if the things that remind me of you, remind you of me.”  I recently went on a whirlwind (and I really mean whirlwind) adventure to Colombia with Kathmandu. What can I tell you about it? My itch for South America has only just been scratched and I’m left wanting more. We hit the ground running and began filming at the airport in Medellín city. I’ve never hidden that I am not much of a city girl, but I think the cute streets, botanical gardens and salsa-dancing nightlife in Medellín are attractions I’ll go back for. 

“Can we take a ride? Get out of this place, while we still have time.” My heart feels heavy today. Reminiscing on this afternoon drive and always an adventure with you. Still, learning to let go. 

Recently I had the unbelievable opportunity to visit “The Land of a Million Elephants,” LAOS with Helloworld and Insider Journeys. I’m going to break this post up into two parts because I’ve travelled to SE Asia multiple times and I hadn’t yet made it to Laos, always adding it to the “I’ll-do-it-next-time-list” and I’ve, as to be expected, fallen head over heals in love with the incredibly, beautiful and untouched country. 

A little write up as part of a “Micro Adventure Series” with We Are Explorers – Thank you for including my work and a small story behind each image.

Saturday afternoon just gone I was sitting on the beach for hours with one of my best friends, we were discussing the impermanent nature of life and how ‘when we were younger’ (that sentence itself makes me feel old, but what is age?) we used to have countdowns looking forward to certain events or certain holidays.

“I wanted to create something tangible and to give back to a country that gave me so much…” 

Recently I was invited to Hervey Bay to stay at the Oceans Resort and Spa Hervey Bay, an Ascend Hotel Collection member who’s passion is to connect their visitors with the local. My Grandparents have lived in Hervey Bay for the last 22 years, so I was really excited to get a chance to head back up to this amazing, little part of Queensland. 

One day / 10 photos. One an hour from sunrise to sunset. Bourail to Nouméa, New Caledonia. 

I wanted to do this post a little different to the way I normally do, because we did a lot of seriously amazing things in Dubai and I’ll let the photographs do the talking, but I just wanted to share the personal highlights for me. So, my top things to do in Dubai:  Adventure, adventure, adventure! Dubai is one of the biggest playgrounds in the world. Take a day trip to the Hatta Hajjar Mountains. Just go and go high! The layers of the mountains and alien like landscape is unreal. 

Wollongong is one destination in Australia I’ve always wanted to visit, so when I booked this job earlier in the year I was really excited about it. It would be a working-reunion of sorts with some of my favourite travel buddies and personal mentors. Plus, my friend and ridiculously talented Photographer Will Patino has been showcasing the best of Wollongong for years now and I couldn’t wait to get down there and see it for myself.  

Because she says everything I can’t (and so well) here. x With you, always.

Any time with you is time well spent. From the floors of the airport to this beautiful destination, with all the highs and lows in-between. Worth every minute. 

From ‘Into The Wild’ in Borneo earlier this year with Geckos Adventures! Intrepid Travel Group has a few films in ‘Adventure in Motion’ short film competition.

Last week I went to Townsville for the first time with Tourism Townsville.  To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect, but I had the greatest time! We ventured from sunset to sunrise on the beautiful Magnetic Island, to Townsville city and Castle Hill, to running around the sugarcane fields and having so much fun in the outback. 

Recently I went to Türkiye with Flight Centre Australia and Busabout Europe.  Part II of a photo series of a highly recommended trip – and probably my favourite part of the Busabout trip!! Exploring Pamukkale > Saklikent Gorge > Fethiye > The Aegean Sea.

Recently I went to Türkiye with Flight Centre Australia and Busabout Europe. Part I of a photo series of a highly recommended trip – Exploring Istanbul > Gallipoli > Troy > Pergamum > Ephesus. One of the best open air museums in the world // I completely fell in love with Turkey. You can read more in an interview here on the Flight Centre Blog.

Earlier this year I collaborated with Broadsheet Sydney & Melbourne for their Winter newspaper – The Dark Heart of Australia: Tasmania. The full photo blog post here and as seen on the Broadsheet site. Nothing like receiving the newspaper and seeing my work in tangible form, along side some of of my photography peers and personal inspirations.
