Happy in Ha’apai

We spent the first evening on Uoleva swaying in our hammock, happy to have finally found the deserted tropical island we had daydreamed about for months. After a rainy week in Neiafu, we headed south via the local ferry to the Ha’apai – a group of 51 low coral and 2 volcanic islands. We were […]

Small town living

I wonder what it would have been like to grow up in a small town like Lancelin. There is not a whole lot to do in Lano, but the local kids always find creative ways to entertain themselves. While I have always loved living in a big city, I also very much enjoyed living in […]

Aussie RT Day 29-32 – Margaret River

Margaret River (aka Marge) is located about 3 hours south of Perth and is best known to be an excellent wine making region, home to 90 wineries. Stacy’s friend Lara (also a Cali girl) lives in Marge and was kind enough to let us stay with her and her boyfriend Will. It was so nice […]

Aussie RT Day 18-20: Cape Range National Park

We were starting to get the feeling that perhaps Joel wasn’t enjoying traveling with two girls. Whenever he spotted another guy, he would immediately ditch us to hang with a bloke. We kept running into a group of four he had met in Darwin that were on our same route. We weren’t too surprised when […]

Aussie RT Day 10-13: Croc terrorizes Broome!

The Gibb River Road ended in the town of Derby which wasn’t much to see so we continued west to Broome. We were both surprised we made it all the way through the Gibb without any mishaps or flat tires! The only explanation – we are bad ass four wheel driving chicas and Hercules is […]

Journey to Tallow Beach in Byron Bay

I made a video of little journey to the beach in Byron Bay.

Tallow Beach stretches from the South side of Cape Byron all the way down to Broken Head. This tranquil beach offers a quiet escape from bustling the bustling Main Beach located closest to downtown Byron Bay.

Local stuff…

I worked a lot last week but did find some time to have some fun! I didn’t get to play at the beach as much as would have liked but Lauren and I had a fun day lounging on the rocks at the lady’s bath. We went for a swim in the ocean pool and […]

Life’s a beach!

Lauren and I have been living at our new house at Coogee Beach for the past two weeks. We both absolutely love living at the beach and Coogee is beautiful and so much fun! We live on the road that runs in front of the beach and are just a few minutes walk to the […]
