Yet another bright but chilly winter’s week has gone by here in Sydney. This week we’ve kept warm by staying busy catching up with friends, cat sitting (as in looking after a friend’s cat not actually sitting on one), making the most of an important international celebration and getting back in touch with nature. Here’s a … Read more
Did you know that August is the month of Romance Awareness? If you didn’t, don’t worry – it’s not a widely known thing. But now that you do, what are you going to do about it? What does it even mean? First and foremost, ‘romance awareness’ shouldn’t be scary! As I understand it, to be … Read more
Spring is only a month away here in Sydney. It’s hard to believe when it’s still so cold here. People keep telling me it’s warmer than it was a couple of weeks ago, but I think we’re still spoilt by the tropical warmth of the Kimberley in northwest Australia.

It’s good to be back in good ol’ Sydney town. We had the most amazing time in the Kimberley, WA – and just so you know, you should probably expect to hear more about our trip on the National Geographic Orion over the next few weeks – but like all travel, getting home is a … Read more

We’re now officially in the 2nd half of the year! How about that. Soon we’ll be seeing Christmas decorations in the shops no doubt. In the meantime, we’ve been having the best week. Visits from good friends, feasts in new restaurants and then best of all, we head off on a dream trip. Hope your week … Read more
My goodness, what a week it’s been! It’s taken us a surprisingly long time to recover from our trip to South Australia. The wine there’s just too good to say no to… as is the Adelaidean hospitality! Not that we’re complaining, of course. Everything we ate and drank in Adelaide was delicious and we’d encourage you … Read more
We’ve spent very little time in Sydney this last week. As Mrs Romance and Carly got ready for their latest Little Blog Big workshop in Adelaide, we decided it’d be only right to spend at least a few days in South Australia in the build-up. So there’s not been much time for us to snap … Read more
