Probably one of the most popular walking trails in Sydney, the Spit to Manly walk. This walk has some of the most stunning views imaginable: Crystal blue water, secluded bays and beaches, bushland and stunning cliff views. This walk is 10 kilometers long and is not super simple. The track, however, is so stunning that it will entice you to keep going. This walk has been on my bucket list since last summer. I attempted to do it, but I could not find that start of the walk, so I gave up. My friend the other day told me exactly where to go and what to do, so I did another attempt last weekend. If you follow me on Instagram, then you have already seen some of my pictures of this walk. I had such a good time, bringing me back to the time I lived in the mountains. I was so happy and I wish I had done it sooner. In today’s blog post I will show you some of the amazing sights that you will see during this walk.
Ahh Bondi Beach. If you are Australian or just someone who likes Australia, then you have definitely heard of this world famous beach. The suburb where the beach is located is only 7 kilometers from Sydney CBD and in summers gets run over by tourists and locals. The other day I did the Bondi to Coogee walk. But before I set off I wandered around for a bit. It had been a while since I had been to this famous beach, and I enjoyed it a lot more then I anticipated. This famous hipster suburb is home to some amazing shops, restaurants, walking tracks and swimming pools. So if you are planning to go to Sydney and want to know the ins and outs of Bondi then read on…

I think most bloggers know what I am talking about when saying that being a blogger is a lot more than just writing posts. Social media (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter etc), emails, planning content and so much more. There’s a lot more to blogging – than blogging – if ya know what I mean. For a while, I was struggling to get everything done on time. It is very important to update your blog as well updating your social media, you need a Pinterest strategy and a growth plan for your blog. So how do you get it all done? and stay consistent without letting this whole blog thing take over your life? For me, staying on top of my blogging to-do’s is about 2 main things: Managing distractions and maintaining focus (YouTube is my downfall, Hello Shane Dawson) Knowing what tasks to focus on (What is important and what can wait for a bit longer) In order to get less stressed and more organized, I made some check-lists. Every day I know what to do in order to stay on top of my blog and not get snowed under by the workload. In today’s blog post I will show what my checklists and how to use them.
Sydney is such an amazing city. It is everything you’d wish for: A husting and bustling CBD, a world-famous bridge and opera house, many many beaches and lush green parks where you can wander for hours on end. Today I am sharing with you 5 amazing activities that you can do in Sydney for free, yes you heard me right, FREE!
Perth, in Western Australia, is known to be a fairly sleepy and uninteresting city. The CBD is not the most hustling and bustling town center you will visit, but the surroundings around the city are some of the most breathtaking you will ever encounter. From the Pinnacles to White sand beaches that stretch as far as the eye can see or explore Rottnest with those adorable smiling Quokka’s. In this blog post, you will find what you must see, where you must stay, where to get a tan and where to entertain yourself during your city trip to Perth.
The first time I went to Canberra I was 5 and not really interested in anything besides the food, typical kid of course. Mom – We’re going to Canberra Me: do they have food there? Mom- yes Me: yay!! Let’s go to Canberra! Of course, the real reason she wanted to take me there was to immerse my young self in Australian culture and politics and to see the capital city of my dad’s homeland. To be completely honest, I don’t remember much except for getting sore feet (from all the walking) and I remember thinking we were in the jungle for some crazy weird reason? (btw it doesn’t look like the jungle at all) but kids imaginations and all that hoo-hah! So when my Mom and I decided to go on a road trip from Sydney down to the Mornington peninsula earlier this year, we decided that we would take the opportunity to stop in Canberra and spend a few days checking the capital out and MAN did it disappoint! Oh wait just kidding….. it was amazing! Hehehe! Tricked ya! Below I have listed a few of my personal must-see places of this incredible City, she’s no Washington but well at least you can see Roo’s here. Enjoy!
Last Saturday the weather was absolutely phenomenal. So I decided to go for a wander in Sydney’s Royal Botanic Garden. The garden is one of my favorite places in this city. Not only has it some of the most spectacular city views, it is also a quiet spot in a busy city. Just think about the wonderful lush color of the sweeping lawns, dark green canopies and thousands of beautiful flowers. The Botanic Gardens are not just a place to sit back, relax and enjoy the stunning views, there is always plenty to do and new things to discover, doesn’t matter if it’s summer or winter. In this post, I will show you some of the best places to go and ‘take you along my trip’ in the gardens.
A lot of people think about starting a blog but don’t know if it is actually something they want to pursue. They either feel like they have nothing to blog about, that their life is not interesting enough, that no one is interested in their hobbies or they are just plain scared of what other people will think of them. In this blog post, I will tell you why these insecurities are rubbish and why you should just do it. I will tell you my story and what blogging has done personally for me.
My parents recently traveled to Curaçao in the Caribbean in June 2018. Every day they kept sending me the most amazing pictures and that they were having the best time. I was SO not jealous and definitely did not wish I was there every single day – sigh. So, in today’s blog post, I will show you some of the best things to see and do while on this amazing island, in this mini island guide.
For months I had seen girls talk about eyelash serums that help you grow your eyelashes. I have seen several teen moms, and even Kim Kardashian promote eyelash serums. I always thought that it sounded too good to be true. So I never bought the product myself. A few weeks back it was my birthday(HOORAY) and I got a surprise parcel all the way from the Netherlands from my amazing sister. This parcel was filled with amazing numerous gifts, including an eyelash serum. So, of course, I HAD to try it out. In this blog post, I will tell you what happened when I used this serum and why I stopped using it after a few weeks. Read on for my review.
The Netherlands is an underrated travel destination for most people. It offers so much more than what people think. Most tourist will only go to Amsterdam and then think that they have seen the Netherlands(haha shesh). This is of course not the case. Think of destinations like Kinderdijk, Gouda, Utrecht, and Keukenhoff. While I have written an extensive guide to Amsterdam, I have yet to write anything about the rest of The Netherlands (or Holland). So here is it. Some amazing other destinations that you should see in the Netherlands besides the countries main ‘attraction’ Amsterdam.
A few weeks back I asked my Twitter followers which city I should do my next city guide on. With an overwhelming majority, they choose London. I have only been to London once myself, so I have asked one friend to assist me with this travel guide. She has been several times (She has been trying to count how many times, but let’s say 10+) and absolutely loves the city. She has been to all the hot spots and knows some lovely secret spots as well. So here it is. What you must see, where you must stay and, most importantly, where you must eat and drink on a holiday in London.
For the last few months, I have been using a complete organic skincare routine. I started using it after it got recommended to be my a friend. I had not seen her for a few months and when we met up for a coffee, her skin was glowing(as in Edward from twilight glow haha). She was raving about this – all organic skincare and I had to try it out after hearing her rave review about the products and seeing how amazing her skin looked. In today’s post, I will give you my honest review of the go-to skincare range.
Melbourne is known for its coffee drinking culture, its amazing arts, sports events and its great shopping opportunities. If you want to do at a true Melbournian city trip, then you must visit the iconic laneways, covered in colorful gravity, sip coffee at hidden coffee shops and spend evenings in art galleries(dreamy). The city is sophisticated, gritty and known for its 4 seasons in 1 day(be aware) and is a definite must-see when you are in Australia. In this blog post, you will find what you must see, where you must stay, where to get a tan and where to entertain yourself during your trip to Melbourne.

Rottnest Island, just off the coast of Perth, Western Australia, is one of the most amazing islands I have ever been too in my life! With it’s raw and rough beauty and home to unique animals that only live on this island, a day trip(at least) is an absolute must for visiting this part of the world. It has been one of the most popular ‘holiday at home’ destinations for Western Australians. With its many charms and attractions, this islands attract a whole variety of people and therefore it is immensely popular. Whether you stay for one day or five, Rottnest will enchant, inspire and recharge your batteries for weeks to come. And when you are on that ferry on your way home, you will have wished you booked some more nights on this spectacular island. In the post underneath, I will show you where to go, what to see and how to make sure you can get the elusive selfie with the worlds happiest animal ( YES IT IS THAT CUTE!)
This past weekend I wandered over to Luna Park at Milsons Point, Sydney. The park is an amusement attraction and was established in 1935, amazingly it still contains traditional midway games and rides while of course still offering your 21st-century amusements as well. The older charm that this park offers, the more the modern generation can catch a glimpse of the past.
