It's Spring time

Hello there, I know it's been a while since I've blogged. Oh well, today I have been busy with making another travel video. 

Youtube videos have been popular lately and I do miss editing videos so why not...

Hope you can check out a few of my videos. Still getting the hang of it and trying my best to be patient with editing again haha

Enjoy, like and subscribe! 

Last day of Summer

Yup, it is the 28th of Feb 2021. Last day of summer here in NSW. It's not too hot today though, 26ish. But just staying home to relax as it is Monday again tomorrow!

I thought I will just have a quick post to share that I've also started to get some of my travel photos on a Youtube channel that I started few month ago...and here it is!

I still need to make the videos more catching but for now it is more like a photo dump with some music in the background. 

Hope you enjoy and I will look to upload more as I go along.

Top 10 Things to do in and around Orange, NSW

I've just been back from a 10 day holiday in  Orange. And what a way to end it by sharing to you the top 10 Things to do...Bear with me though as I still reminisce the bits and pieces from this trip and hopefully I won't forget them.

Weekend Getaways: St Albans, NSW

Okay, so to spice things up, I've decided to make a series of blog posts with a certain theme. And the theme for today...Weekend Getaways! It will be anything and everything from bush walking, road trips, unique places or accommodations and suburban wonders that we can explore within a weekend or just a couple of days.

So for my first Weekend Getaway Series, I would like to share the picturesque town of St. Albans. Less than two hours north of Sydney, I would definitely recommend this for those who feel like they need to disconnect from the hustle and bustles of the city!

Spring time Spruce up

It's the middle of Spring on this side of my world. However, today is one of those days where the weather has gone a little bit travel unfriendly as we are off to a week of rains and thunderstorms. 

So what a good excuse to do some sprucing up of my very own blog. Basically, just started to choose a different background and cleaned up some widgets.

I have always been thinking of re-designing this and hopefully make it more presentable and useful to any readers who are still able to reach my blog.

On a different note...

Since moving to Australia, I've been to most touristy places here but I haven't written that much about it. I have also been to a number of National Parks and Camping grounds and I think it's high time I share those experiences and adventures with you! With the covid-19 still among us, I know we won't be travelling too far  across the seas, so this makes it a reason for me to explore what more we can discover in this land called Australia.

What I love especially here in NSW is that it's got a central website to search through the NSW National Parks. It's even got an App and an instagram account! It's my main source of travel inspiration when I have hose uninspiring days and I just want to plan something for an adventure. All the infos are there and all  you have to do is click and choose where to go.

So I will try my best to write them all up and hopefully in a more regular basis 😀

Hello Spring, hello start of Christmas countdown

Spring time is upon us, at least on this side of the hemisphere...

Which means, more time to go out and about! Which also means, Ber months and the start of the Christmas season in the Philippines at least.

With Covid still actively upon most of the countries, I don't know if there's any travel plans to look forward to during the Christmas holidays. Perhaps, the least I can wish for is trans-Tasman bubble opening so possibility of flying to NZ since I haven't been there yet.

Otherwise, I guess only option is exploring our own backyard anywhere within NSW!

I hope everyone is keeping safe and staying healthy and positive during these challenging times.

Get some fresh air and make the most of the time at home!!!

As for me, I've been keeping busy on my driving lessons and I have ordered a Paint by Numbers set so hopefully get those creative juices working again. Yeah!

Covid Diaries: Light at the end of the tunnel

Finally, got the chance to head out to a National Park yesterday. Wohoo! Being in isolation for more than two months, aren't we all excited to go out and have a change of scenery!

Did some errands in Dee Why yesterday and on the way back decided to drop by Garigal National Park which is just 25 mins away from Dee Why.

It was a quick 30 min downward walk and you end up at the Flat Rock Beach. Nice and quite secluded.

Saw just two kids hanging out in the sand, with their Dad sitting at the docked boat.

It was late afternoon, so only passed through two groups of walkers.
