Instead of getting you to vote whether or not I should post a DSLR or GoPro snap, here is the best of both worlds 📸🤳

You know it’s been a good beach day when you leave looking like you are lactating through your clothes 😂🏖

Welcomed by thick clouds and high tides, it wasn’t looking too promising for all of the big plans we had. We plonked ourselves onto the sand hoping the tides were going out and were very quickly made aware that they were not as a wave rushed our way. As we got caught up in a good catch up chat from a safer sandy spot we were all flabbergasted to see a turtle being released back into the ocean right in front of us. With the flags up and sun trying to best to peak through we thought if it’s good enough for the turtle to swim we may as well jump in too. Despite face planting almost immediately and my bikini having a mind of its own the whole time, I was purely happy and carefree (expect the odd shark anxiety) and can you believe the day just kept getting better from there 🐢🌞 This year is all about turning those less than ideal situations into magic!

While lockdowns have made it heartbreakingly impossible to see my travel friends from all around the world (you know who you are and I miss y’all so much 😭) it has been a blessing to finally have the travel friends that are close to home, finally bloody home for once and ALL AT THE SAME TIME, couldn’t have asked for a better day to make the most of it while we can 😱🌞

Who have you been spending most of your time with lately?

A long time ago, in the days of regular travel...
I brought up the issue of guilt when it comes to being homesick while you are expected to be ‘making the most of your time away’ and nothing but grateful for the privilege of travel but now more than ever I’m feeling the guilt for missing travel so deeply when I should be incredibly grateful to be safe, happy and healthy in such a beautiful part of world I call home? 🥲

How are you feeling about travel right now?
Still feels so out of reach? Travelling as we speak? Seeing more of your own country? Already booking an overseas adventure? Homesick?

They may be called serenity falls but my experience wasn’t so serene. 😅
It was one of those days where the heat woke you up so by the time we were at the falls we were dressed in sweat. A steep hike down on a very dodgy wrong path still lead us to the main waterfall along with what appeared to be the rest of the state (I poorly edited most of them out for these pics). After spending the night before researching this very spot it was a little disappointing to see the usually clear blue water well, not clear and far from blue. After some top notch people watching and time to catch our breath while hidden behind the waterfall, we decided against a swim and set out to find a better way to get back to the car park. Following the crowd along the creek with the added bonus of a few mini waterfalls, things were looking up. Until we made it to the car park... because it turns out there are two on opposite ends of the park and our car was all the way in the other
🤦🏽‍♀️
Even though I’ve now seen way more of Buderim Falls than I expected I would still go back to explore this beautiful place all over again ⭐️💛

To those of you who are disappointed the new year

To those of you who are disappointed the new year didn’t magically solve all of your problems or feels as though 2021 is a lost cause already: you are not alone but that doesn’t mean you should give up ⭐️

I’m with ya, 2021 is off to a rough, rainy start but I am not letting that set the tone for the rest of the year and nor should you. I think there is this overwhelming pressure that a new year brings especially if you feel behind in your life from the year before. While the new year can be great to motivate, remember that New Year’s Day isn’t the only time to change your life, set goals and chase your dreams and it sure as hell doesn’t matter if your world seems to crumble only a couple of days after doing so. Pick yourself back up and change your life any day of any year 💛

As much fun as the 2020 wrap up posts look, I thought the big pineapple was a much better way to kick off the new year here on Wandering Donut. Plus I think I’ve reached the limit for how many times I can show you the video climbing into my suitcase, photos of me holding a giant wine glass and stories of me crying. Here’s to more adventures and mishaps to test your patience in 2021! 🥲🥂

One of the best summer activities I’ve ever done was hiring this funky little pedal boat with friends for a day among the gorge. I’d fly back to France to do this all over again in a heartbeat yet if this was available for me right now at home I’d probably continue to put it off. Who knows, something similar may be but there always seems to be that spark missing and i am sure I am not in this boat alone (literally and figuratively). We should change that. Let’s bring the adventure to us this summer! (Or winter/wet/dry season, I don’t discriminate) 🚣🏽‍♀️🧗‍♀️
