545. That’s the number of days it’s been since

545. That’s the number of days it’s been since our worlds were flipped upside down and Australia first went into lockdown. If you haven’t had a proper holiday or taken more than the odd day of leave in that time, you’re probably suffering from burnout or getaway grief. Check out psychologist Lauren Daniell’s tips at the link in bio 💕

Mentally, we’re here. Physically, we’re not. O

Mentally, we’re here. Physically, we’re not. Over the last 18 months, we’ve all experienced COVID-cancellations - holidays that didn’t happen and special events deleted from our calendars. At the link in bio, Nikole Duong chats to psychologist Lauren Daniell about coping tactics for COVID-cancellations, how to deal with getaway grief, and why you still need to schedule in some holiday leave…

Another tale of holiday romance… Author Tara Wel

Another tale of holiday romance… Author Tara Wells fell in love with her husband on a famous Sydney coastal walk. They soon got married, then honeymooned on a hike, and she’s just written a guidebook to the must-do, multi-day walk from Bondi to Manly.

Read all about it at the link in bio (and hey, lockdown walks suddenly have whole new potential!)

Sun-kissed sand and jewel blue seas… for anyone

Sun-kissed sand and jewel blue seas… for anyone who needs some respite from the relentlessly bleak news cycle, both local and global. Still feeling thankful to call Australia home (and remember, we’ve felt the wrath of fire, flood and drought, and will emerge from this hardship too.) ❤️

This is Agnes Water, Queensland’s northern-most surf beach and an access point to the southern Great Barrier Reef. 📷 @kendallbaggerly

Some heart-warming nostalgia coming right up… In

Some heart-warming nostalgia coming right up... In our new column, we share tales of holiday romance – intense, frenetic and carefree – the kind that can only blossom when the pressures of everyday life are removed.

First up, a story of love at third sight on a secret and secluded island in Queensland's Great Barrier Reef by @maeveyg .

Get all the feels (plus some summer holiday inspiration) at the link in bio! ❤️

Which corner of the globe beckons this weekend…

Which corner of the globe beckons this weekend… the bustle of Barcelona, bursting with art, music and architecture? Or the bright lights of Shinjuku? Or perhaps the awe-inspiring landscapes of Bolivia…

At the link in bio we bring you 10 films that are, quite literally, out-of-this-world - from old favourites to modern must-sees. No, it’s not a real holiday, but rather a magical 120-minute escape from reality. Writes @maeveyg , “There are worse ways to spend a Saturday night than taking in the incredible sights of somewhere new through the director’s lens.” 🎬
