MAIN BEACH, QLD – These are a few mixed images from sunkissed tropical-scented summer walks around the Main Beach area of Gold Coast, Australia :) You gotta love the relaxedness the place inspires, with all those cute line-up houses surrounded by the most vibrant and gorgeous trees. Oh yeh, and the skyscrapers too. And the crazily blue skies. AND the frangipanis! :)
Dreaming of that day back in Sydney Circular Quay (aka the best place on Earth to me) during a late afternoon walk from the Opera House to Pitt Street. Loved to admire the (very warm) sun setting between the skyscrapers and creating lovely rays of light on the bay :)

QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA – Looking at these images makes me want to quit everything and go open a kangaroo wildlife center to dedicate my life to cuddling all the roos forever :) What can I say, I am famous for not being able to resist the ozzy charm…

CURRUMBIN, QUEENSLAND – I am finally able to share the images from our Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary experience ! :) if you wanna go absolutely crazy at some of the cutest and funniest creatures on Earth (and a few scary ones so that you can forever be able to casually mention OH yep, that time I was standing “close” to a crocodile in Australia… :P ), then this is the place for you to visit for sure :) I have also been to Taronga in Sydney before and I loved that a lot too, even though I would probably say Currumbin would be my favorite because the area is wider and more jungle’y, far from the city. The animals seems to be enjoying a very good enviromnent of freedom, tropical goodness and some serious relax, while being looked after by loving park rangers :)
NOTE: this is going to be a long post :D

QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA – As some of you might already know, I am a hopeless treehugging, flower crazy, green-addict kind of person. What is better than walking among lush rainforest, and jungle-looking areas of Queensland? I’ll let you judge :) Some of these images were shot around Gold Coast, others at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, which I highly recommand visiting both for the plants and for the (ridiculously cute) animals. If any of you knows the names of the less common plants pictured here please leave a comment, I’ll be happy to learn more about it :)

QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA – So, honestly koalas know everything about the true meaning of life. Their combination of sleep-eat-hug tree-repeat is quite THE lifestyle, which makes of them the most relaxed and arguably the smartest creatures on Earth. Of course, they never forget to stay beautiful :) Fluffy is the new black.

Shooting the Sydney Opera House with hardly any people there…. priceless !
I was seriously surprised of having the Opera House all for myself in this (extremely short) moment without any crowd.
The fact that there were approximately 500° C under the sunlight might have had something to do with it but to me this moment was just perfect :) SYDNEY I LOVE YOU
BURLEIGH HEADS, QUEENSLAND – We’ve been to Burleigh shortly after visiting Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary (heaps of koala/roo/wombat cuteness coming soon!) and stopped for a delayed lunch (aka berry cheesecake with vanilla icecream :D) and some beach photos :) It was around dusk and the sky opened up from the clouds for a little while, enough to get to enjoy the beauty of the place with a hint of blue sky. It’s a great vantage point to admire Gold Coast’s majestic skyscrapers in front of the ocean. Also, please bare with me while I am still completely obsessing over all the tropical flowers and plants, like the hibiscus and flame tree here… :)
