This week was my last week in Byron Bay.

 It was definitely bittersweet as I have had some fantastic times there and made friends for life. It was always going to be temporay living in Byron though and it was time to head back to Sydney. 

To celebrate my last few days I booked a luxury hotel to make the most of it. 

Luckily it was great weather too so I got to enjoy Wategos Beach, my favourite Byron beach for the last time.... at least for a while.

Surfers Paradise

Last month I visited Surfers Paradise. It was my first time out of New South Wales and into Queensland!

I wasn't sure what to expect as I'd heard very mixed reviews about Surfers Paradise but I loved it! I must admit it doesn't have the same 'charm' as Byron Bay, there's no quirkiness or laid back Australian vibe, but it's not trying to be that type of place either. Yes it is touristy but you just have to embrace it... enjoy the holiday feeling!

If you know what to expect you won't be disappointed... great beaches, great shopping, great entertainment and great nightlife! What's not to love?!
