& Coast

Australia is undoubtedly known for its beaches, and for good reason. I have yet to discover the West Coast, but am beyond satisfied with the East for the time being.

Road tripping from Brisbane to Melbourne was the perfect dose of Australia before a 6 month break abroad, and of course, the trip had to kickstart in Byron.

First Stop: Byron Bay, New South Whales

 

 

Whites Beach

Blue gem

This day was spent listening to triple J’s hottest 100 on the beach with swim breaks in between. Our ultimate worry being whether we had enough sunscreen on.

Second Stop: Newcastle

Newcastle felt more like a British coastal town than it did Australian. However, the warm weather dismissed this notion pretty quickly.

 

 

Ocean Baths

Airbnb, you’ve done it again

Third Stop: Sydney

 

 

Beautiful Glebe

Oh to be surrounded by the ocean. Definitely one of Sydney’s strongest selling points.

Third Stop: Wagga Wagga

This town was quite charming despite its stark contrast against the coastal blues.

Sunset for hours

Are we there yet?

 

 

Very lost

Mildly worried

 

Destination: Melbourne

Not much to say, just a good time.

Just don’t go to the Yarra Valley on a 40 degree day 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beautiful Aus, see you soon.
