✨SMALL TOWN SPOTLIGHT Toodyay is one of those places that you can fall in love with very easily. With a mix of history, nature and gorgeous accommodation options plus did I mention #toodyay is only 1hr from Perth… Choose to stay in town at the victoriahoteltoodyay or the beautiful glamping ⛺️ heavenlywaters.com.au (one of the best outdoor baths 🛁 see image 1) or a tiny home option with heyscape cabins. You are spoilt for choice with a wide range of accommodation options around Toodyay. Toodyay has an interesting history which is on display around town at Connors Mill and also the museum including details of the famous bushranger Moondyne Joe. During spring time visit Pelham Reserve to see stunning displays of wildflowers or stop at toodyaybakery for their famous pies and other delicious bakery items 🥧, one of the best country bakeries in Western Australia. Just out of Toodyay is one of Western Australia’s oldest wineries coorinja_winery. You must try their delicious wines (I especially love their fortifieds 🍷) If you want a bit of quirky fun then visit the Toodyay Christmas Shop. christmas360toodyay for year round festive joy🎄 So why not take yourself on a day trip to Toodyay or spend the weekend in sometime. The cooler months are a perfect time to visit especially as the Avon River starts to flow and you can wander along its banks. Each August the avondescent runs through Toodyay with hundreds of competitors kayaking or boating their way down the #avonriver towards Perth. #toodyay #avonvalley #perthweekends #perthtodo #WATheDreamState #DriveTheDream #westernaustraliatourism #westisbest

✨SMALL TOWN SPOTLIGHT This week our Small Town Spotlight is Nungarin, a Wheatbelt town just over 3hrs east of Perth with a population of approx 230. Nungarin was the largest inland military storage facility during WWII. It now is home to one of the best military and army museums in Australia. Nungarin like many Wheatbelt communities has a vast and beautiful landscape with many granite outcrops and salt lakes. 20km north of town you will find Eaglestone Rock and Lake Brown. A great spot to explore and camp the night (there are no facilities!) You can also find Danberrin and Talgomine Rocks nearby also. Returning back to Nungarin stop and enjoy a beer or great pub meal at the historic Nungarin Hotel or why not stay the night upstairs in one of their rooms and wake ready for the monthly Sunday markets held on the first Sunday of each month. Nungarin is also home to Mangowine Homestead, a historic national trust property. You can even camp here for the night at their on site caravan park.

🦋 I strongly believe my grandparents gifting me an old readersdigest world globe when I was six year old was the catalyst for my life long love of travel and outdoor adventures. I was infatuated with the globe, constantly spinning it to see where it would stop and dreaming of the places I would visit when I was older. That dreaming turned into a love of travel and adventure and wanting to explore every corner of our #amazingworld Now many years later (40yrs to be precise!!😜) I am working towards making that love and passion into my dream job and lifestyle being a #travelcontentcreator and sharing that with you and inspiring you to #explore this amazing planet we call home. If your seeing this and your an aspiring content creator also I would love to connect with you and share this journey together… Love Carol xx P.s I still have that globe 🌎 and yes I still spin it and dream!🫶🏻 #WorldTravels #ExploreAustralia #litchfieldnationalpark #NorthernTerritory #Australia #butterflyeffect

Perfect Girls Weekend in Perth

Recently the area has had an upgrade, with redevelopment along the river foreshore and a new Mends St Arcade shopping area. Within a two minute walk of the Quest South Perth Foreshore is the South Perth ferry with a seven minute trip across the river to the Perth City, Elizabeth Quay and the Convention & Exhibition Centre. Like the ‘Bottlebrush’ which has locally made Old Young’s No.1, Giniversity aromatised wine, Australian Bottlebrush with native wattle seed and lemon myrtle. As our weekend drew to an end, I thought of the history I had with this amazing group or girls who I have called my friends for such a long time.

Three Days Exploring Sapporo

The train followed the ocean the whole way to Otaru where we watched the crazy japanese surfers and the waves crashing against the snowy shore. Otaru was beautiful, with snow falling on us constantly all day as we walked the streets exploring the fish stalls and souviner shops. Although sad to get back on the train after our wonderful day in Otaru, we were excited as our family friends were arriving that night. Next time you head to northern Japan for their famous j-pow and ski slopes, take a few days to explore Sapporo before you go.

Does All Inclusive REALLY mean All Inclusive...

As a family of five if there is LESS things for ME to have to worry about when I’m on holiday the BETTER it is for everyone in our family. The resorts that only cover your food or the ones that cover your food and some drinks but only at certain restaurants or bars. But our all time favourite All Inclusive resorts would be the Club Med Resorts With Club Med it includes all your activities in the upfront costs.

Peace & Quiet at Mt Romance Farm

Mt Romance Farm is situated half way between Denmark and Walpole in the Great Southern Region of Western Australia. Denmark Dinosaur World is 10 minutes drive from Mt Romance Farm and another great place to visit with the kids . The Denmark Dinosaur World is open 9:30-4:30 daily and costs $45 for a family (2 adults plus 3 children). We opened the bottle of local wine that we had picked up at the Bow Bridge Store and the enjoyed the peace and tranquility of Mt Romance Farm.
