(This is a continuation of my loop road trip from Brisbane, to Gold Coast, through Nimbin down to Coffs Harbour and up to Byron Bay). We finally arrived at our last destination Byron Bay. I would estimate about 90% of all travellers I’ve encountered name Byron as their favorite spot so my expectations were pretty …
A while back I wrote a text called “That one issue”. To recap, every single one of us has (at least) one area in life where reoccurring struggles seem to emerge.

The definition of anxiety according to Cambridge dictionary is: “An uncomfortable feeling of nervousness or worry about something that is happening or might happen in the future”.

Few years back I was invited to a social function where I wasn't familiar with the guests, only the host. The event turned into an annual gathering and I became acquainted with the people. The last time I participated, I acted in a way that my desire to keep part take abruptly came to a …

Back to the roadtrip when everything was normal. I had “randomly” met Lea and from Gold coast we did an inland loop down to Coffs Harbour and then up to Byron Bay. Our plan was to visit a few national parks before spending the night in Nimbin. Unfortunately for us, most were close due to …

I’m unable to count the amount of times I’ve begun to type on my blog only to delete it. Mainly, I’ve had a feeling of being a phony if I were to post photos of picturesque nature landscapes or of myself with a wide smile enjoying life. I’ve captured plenty of images on camera and …

After three weeks in Brisbane a road trip down the east coast finally started. On the day I jumped out of the bed and felt like a child on Christmas day (at least how imagine it) and couldn't wait to get in the car and get going. After a 9 month long wait I could …
