The university of Cambridge; prestigious, proper and so pretty. When I think of the likes of Cambridge I can’t help but refer back to what Gilmore Girls has taught me about Yale and Harvard. Different countries, but same thing right? Obviously I therefore knew a lot about elite universities… well not really. Our day started catching the train from the beautiful Kings Cross Station. If … Continue reading A Day in Cambridge
2:00am, in the morning, that’s the time my Nordic Adventure started. Not so bright but, but oh so early. You would hope Norway is worth it for anyone to be up at this hour, and it definitely was! I walked past many wobbling home from a big Saturday night out and boarded the train then bus to get to the airport for my 5:50 departure. … Continue reading Nordic Adventure

Do you want to go to the sea side? The answer is always yes! Brighton is the British equivalent of a seaside getaway. Very different to an Aussie beach experience, but lovely all the same. There was a group of us that caught the train an hour out of London to Brighton one grey Saturday on the Easter weekend. It’s an affordable trip at just … Continue reading A trip to Brighton
Annnndd… We’re off! I’ve well and truly touched down in London Baby! So many places to see and the London list just keeps growing. Well first off the list was Camden Town. I’ve been told that Camden was Amy Winehouse’s hood… Not that that was much of a draw card for me. She’s kind of a big deal around those parts and there is a … Continue reading A day in Camden Town, Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill
Art galleries. My preference is the modern ones. No deep and meaningful reason why. They are just usually more fun to be honest. I think there is a lot you can learn if you allow yourself, but I also think that you can take art too seriously. My advice: explore what stands out to you and leave the rest for another day. Here is what … Continue reading The Tate Modern
Packing, it can tickle some with excitement and strike fear into others. Whether your a last minute packer, or two months in advance, it can be tricky to make sure you have everything you need for your trip. I knew this pack would be a difficult one with many things to consider. First thing is the length of time. This trip is almost 7 months … Continue reading How to pack like a snail

Burleigh Sunrise Don’t go … Continue reading Gold Coast Local
My name is Dom. I am a teacher, a creator, a traveller and an ‘ideas woman’ (Castle reference- if you’re not familiar… watch it). My family used to joke that my sister had ‘restless leg syndrome’ (which I have now discovered is a real thing) because she would constantly bounce her legs when seated. Now we just use the term when we are getting eager … Continue reading Why the restless legs?
