Our first night in Brisbane was a bit stressful and confusing, and based on night one we thought we were going to hate it here. Our plan was to go salsa dancing in the city, so we plugged the address (ETA of about 10 minutes) into our GPS and we were off. An hour later…we ended […]

Tasmania: Pyengana & Launceston
We woke up early and packed up to drive to Launceston, our last stop in Tasmania. After talking to our AirBNB host, Bruce, he suggested we stop at St. Columba Falls if we could. He also mentioned there was a dairy farm and cheese factory up that way that had self-milking cows. Our planned stops […]
Tasmania: Richmond, & Bicheno
Richmond, Tasmania After Hobart, and spending a few hours at Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, we drove up the East Coast of Tasmania to get to Bicheno. Someone we met in Melbourne suggested stopping in Richmond while we were in Tasmania. Although we hadn’t planned on it, we went there to re-fuel our car and we’re happy we […]
Tasmania: Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary
On our way out of Hobart, we stopped for breakfast at Ginger Brown Cafe in town. Delicious food, and reasonably priced. They know how to do bacon in Tasmania! Our kayaking tour guides mentioned that “people in Tassie are a bit food obsessed.” Based on our experience, this seems to be true, in the best possible […]
Tasmania: Hobart and Bruny Island
Interestingly enough, Bruny Island Cheese Company is the reason Tasmania found its way on our itinerary. Sam saw a photo of theirs on Instagram, thought their food looked good, and decided to do some more research into Tasmania. Turns out, Tasmania is amazing! We decided to do a bit of a road trip up the east coast, spending […]
Melbourne: The World’s Most Liveable City
We made it to Melbourne! This city, home to over 4 million people, was ranked the most livable city in the world for the sixth year in a row. It had a bit of a New York City feel to us, with its mix of restaurants, modern sky scrapers, parks, and historical buildings. We opted to […]
Our Time in Oahu
Honolulu & Waikiki After Kauai, we traveled to Oahu and spent a few days down in Waikiki. We spent one morning trying to boogie board at Waikiki beach, which was fun, even though we picked a day when there weren’t many waves — oops! We were also able to find some salsa dancing on Friday night, […]
Our Week in Kauai Itinerary
After spending a few days dancing and catching up with friends in Washington, we jetted on over to Kauai for the first leg of our trip. Kauai is known as the Garden Island, and it was easy to see why. Everything was incredibly lush and green with vividly colored flowers. There were plenty of remote […]
