The oldest, most ancient of the age old questions (ok, maybe not)… Bondi or Manly? For me, this is so startlingly obvious I could dance and skip up and down Manly beach from sunrise to sunset. So I guess I’ve given it away? Everyone raves about Bondi. So naturally I’m sceptical about it. I felt … Continue reading

Battle of the Beaches (Melbourne edition)
Melbourne isn’t known for its beaches (all the more reason to dive a little deeper), but the wonderful world of Oz is. When I lived there, I was eager to explore what was on offer in the city.

In true confusing Aussie style, they want to know how you are. And here’s a personalised tip for anyone who’s like me. People who know me will that know I, as … Continue reading
