Vegan Brunch in Melbourne: Matcha Mylk Bar, St Kilda
If you’d told me a year ago that I’d wait 30+ minutes for brunch at a vegan cafe, I would have choked on my poached eggs. I’m pretty dependent on a classic flat white + poached eggs + avocado combo on a Saturday morning, but I was rewarded when we branched out for a super healthy brunch in St Kilda at Matcha Mylk Cafe on … Continue reading Vegan Brunch in Melbourne: Matcha Mylk Bar, St Kilda

I’ve settled in at my new job, and am slowly adjusting to working in an office again. I love having the company of my colleagues all day, and for the first time in a long time, I really enjoy just chilling out at home. When I worked from home, I couldn’t wait to get out of the house on the weekends! Even so, I spent … Continue reading Sunday Stories: Melbourne 22.05.16
Autumn in Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens
Melbourne is enjoying a long, crisp Autumn this year, which is a relief as I’ve been dreading winter since last spring. I’ve been making the most of the milder weather, spending as much time outdoors as possible on the weekends. The Royal Botanic Gardens stretch from Southbank to South Yarra, along the Yarra River. A couple of weekends ago, we went for a big walk through … Continue reading Autumn in Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens
Washington Square Park: A favourite place
While I was in New York City for two months, I spent a lot of time in parks and gardens to relieve some of the pressure of the concrete jungle. Of all of the ones I visited, Washington Square Park was my favourite. It’s one of the prettiest places in New York and is so lively yet peaceful at the same time. We stopped in Washington … Continue reading Washington Square Park: A favourite place

Falling for Southern Charm in Charleston
Charleston, South Carolina, might seem like an unusual choice for a couple of twenty-somethings visiting the USA for the first time, but it ended up being one of my favourite cities. It wasn’t the Empire State Building, the Grand Canyon or the White House which made me want to visit the USA. It’s the country’s regional diversity, which still manages to put up a good … Continue reading Falling for Southern Charm in Charleston

I had my friend Mel staying with me this week, for her first ever trip to Melbourne! It was so much fun showing her around my new home while we caught up.

It’s been a busy week this week, but I’ve been lucky enough to be able to do lots of the work I love. We had a quiet Australia Day this year, after working on revisions for an article in the upcoming issue of Electrify Magazine until the early hours of the morning, I was content to get brunch at The Kettle Black and spend the … Continue reading Sunday Stories 31.01.16
Day Trip to the Mornington Peninsula
The Mornington Peninsula is one of my favourite regions in Victoria and is an easy day trip from Melbourne. The peninsula is about an hour’s drive southeast of the city and has around 30 small towns and villages, numerous beaches and several award-winning wineries to visit. Our first stop was Mornington, a small town about halfway down the peninsula. We were planning to go to the Mornington … Continue reading Day Trip to the Mornington Peninsula
