McLaren Vale, is honestly my favourite wine region in South Australia. I absolutely adore visiting this area and taking in the sun and authentic Australian wine. Though it sometimes takes a backseat to the albeit more commercialized Australian wine region of the Adelaide Hill’s Barossa Valley, this wine region combines everything I love: wine, beaches and food! McLaren Vale is a must do for anyone visiting South Australia and Adelaide. Whether you only have time to head down for an afternoon, ... Read the Post

Alice Springs and Uluru: Journey to Australia’s Red Center
I woke up my last morning in Darwin to my head throbbing and the thought that I needed to make a noon bus (the only one) to Alice Springs and then to Uluru. The bus would take me through the small towns towards the desolate center of Australia, and it would take twenty-three hours! As I looked online to book a ticket with greyhound I made the last-minute decision to catch the one flight a day to Alice Springs because the prices were on par. Qantas is always fun to fly with too! They serve you ... Read the Post
Journey to Australia’s Red Centre Part 1: Darwin and Kakadu
It seem as though it's been a lifetime since I left Australia, and though I had an earlier version of this post on an earlier version of this blog, I can't help but want to share it again.
