Brisbane is the capital city of the Australian state of Queensland, it's also the most populated. I'm writing this today as it's snowing in London... Strange feeling to think I was there at the same period of the year in 2020! January is one of their hottest months. I'll tell you why I love this... Continue Reading →
A lot can happen in a year... I can't believe we're almost Christmas already as it doesn't really feel like it. I never thought we would still be going through a worldwide pandemic by now but here we go! Anyway, the topic today is to go back to Christmas period last year when we were... Continue Reading →
This is the end of 2 weeks of daily travel throwbacks I promised to write about. Our big adventure happened between November 2019 and April 2020, but now I can finally say I have some closure. This experience ended like an unexpected breakup in a relationship, like I was forced to turn the page despite... Continue Reading →
Rather than taking the plane again to the next big city, we decided to drive all along the East coast of Australia, from Sydney to Cairns. You need 3 things for the perfect road trip: time, a good car and a good partner. Australia is a vast country and sometimes you drive for long hours... Continue Reading →
I wish I was able to use a title a bit more positive about Sydney... Like for example: "Sydney, the most popular city in Australia".

Since, Vienna (Austria) has stolen the spotlight but Melbourne is still a close second. If it wasn't that far away from Europe, it's definitely a city I... Continue Reading →
After Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Bali, we flew to Australia with the aim to visit several coastal cities from West (Perth) to North-East (Cairns). The country is so big that it's not really possible to travel from a big city to another without taking the plane (unless you have a lot of time!) so we... Continue Reading →
This is throwback time, I'm feeling nostalgic as exactly a year ago I was at the very beginning of this extraordinary journey. My boyfriend (now fiancé) and I were working in the same company and were both suffering from a bad company culture that impacted our work-life balance a lot. So one day we decided...

In January this year I've been lucky enough to see the Great Barrier Reef during my trip in Australia. I could have snorkelled there but I wasn't comfortable under water and I was worried about hurting the fragile coral. So I did a scenic flight instead and saw it from above. It was probably the...
