While our fellow sun worshippers contentedly basked on Tallow Beach and body surfed the erratic waves, we searched for a lesser known work of Mother Nature. A mere fifteen-minute stroll from our cabin in Suffolk Beachfront Holiday Park, brought us to Ti Tree Lake. Tea Tree Lake, as some would spell it, is no ordinary…

Snapshot Saturday: Postcard #6 Cape Byron Lighthouse, New South Wales
The First Hundred: Stoked and Suffolk-ated
Australia, the 22nd country and fourth continent I’ve set foot on (pardon the vaunting of numbers, but it’s a bucket list thing). It’s also the first stop that we chose for our round-the-world trip. I reckon a three-month stay is too long if you wander around just a handful of cities, but too short if…
Snapshot Saturday: Postcard #5 Tallow Beach, New South Wales
It’s day 95 of our our round-the-world trip, and we’ve finally settled in our abode for six weeks.

Its location is not exactly…
501 Must-Visit Cities Book: And the winner is…

Earlier today at Tallow Beach (New South Wales, Australia), just a few meters from an artist’s house we’re…
Snapshot Saturday: Postcard #4 Blue Mountains, New South Wales
It’s day 81 of our our round-the-world trip (already?!), and this morning we’ll finally leave Sydney. We’ve had enough of the cold (plus Shervin’s visa for America is taking forever) and just a few days ago we decided to head north. To Byron awesome Bay! We’ll be in transit for the next two days and…
Snapshot Saturday: Blue Birthday
Eagle Hawk Lookout, Blue Mountains, NSW Australia. Behind me, the famous Three Sisters rock formation (left) and Jamison Valley. I was devouring every dish from the buffet spread, and appeared elated to the small group of merry people on our round table. I was about twenty pounds above my normal weight yet my massiveness was…
