Noosa

Noosa is truly a beautiful spot in the world. 

Its located in Queensland Australia, just a 1.5hr drive from Brisbane.

~

It is quite a unique place in so many ways. The vibe, the way the main street is laid out right behind the beach but with parkland surrounding it, the location of the beaches (some of the few that face north in Australia) and the overall feeling it gives you being amongst the National Park full of trees and greenery, the beaches full of surfers and sun goers and the hustle and bustle feel of the tourists on Hastings Street. It really has something for everyone and I was lucky enough to get to spend the past week there with my parents relaxing and enjoying time with them. 

~

I am so grateful and lucky that I have parents who I LOVE spending time with, who are equal parts my parents who still give me priceless advice and care but are also my friends who I love to goof off with and hang out with. 

~

During the week I got to go on a bunch of runs with my Dad who is a huge inspiration for me and my running, he is why I started running so to get to run with him through the rain forrest, up some crazy hills, along the coast line edge and even finish off one run by running into the ocean together is some memories that I am going to keep quite close to me in terms of them being truly special moments in my life. 

~

I also got to do Yoga with my Mum, something that has brought us closer together due to our equal understanding in how it makes us feel. At the moment I am partaking in a Instagram Yoga Challenge (@runnersloveyoga) and my Mum is an incredible photographer so we had a blast all week picking out places for me to do the poses and I am so thankful how willing and helpful Mum is. 

~

I was then lucky enough to have my Mr come up for the weekend and we are planning to go back down next weekend to celebrate my Dad's birthday! 

~

I am just super thankful to have the people in my world that I do, when it comes down to it they are the ones that matter the most and when life gets fast-paced, hectic, full of competition at work or tough days its so nice to know that no matter what these are my people and nothing will change that.

~

Ok rambling must now stop. I have a bunch of photos of mostly the ocean because it just feels like home to me so I am constantly in awe of it.

Enjoy!

U-P-D-A-T-E

Oh .... hello there. Gulp! 
So it's been quite awhile since you have seen this blog pop up isn't it!! Golly gosh I sort of completely totally didn't touch or look at my blog for MONTHS.
~
I haven't blogged in 2015 yet
~
This is my first post of the year and were halfway through it! Yikes.
~
So I've been gone for awhile. This blog has always been first and foremost a life recorder for me. Which I love, which I miss! Life got super full on, super fast and a lot happened and thus the recording of the happenings stopped.
~
However! When I am old and grey I want to remember the life happenings and how I felt and what I thought at the time. Memories are amazing things that we have stored in our heads but there are so many moments and feelings to a day I don't want to forget. I want to be able to come back here and read a post from years ago and instantly be pulled back into that moment and recall how I felt on that day.
~
Hence the blog. Lol. Ok enough.
~
WHERE HAVE I BEEN?!?!
~

Ok so the last post I did was in December last year. Since then I have moved cities, moved house, changed jobs and started studying for my masters! Phew. It was a lot, all at once.
~
So I'm going to share with you some pictures from my phone of what's been going on the past....erumm 5 months!!!

Flying up to Brisbane to search for a new home

Outside the front of my new work!

Spot the excited person lol

All set in the car to drive 14+ hours (with the help of some fury friends of course)

The crazy rain that happens up in the tropics! (and the view from my desk - say what?!)

The city is SO pretty!

One of my favourite times in the day is exiting the train station to walk to work - the city is just so bright and awake

Brisbane has a Starbucks - bliss

Our new home is in a complex with a pool.... I mean ....

This is a new running spot I found - Sandgate - such a beautiful place to go running 

Bribie Island - a 40min drive from Brisbane and so pretty! - ill do a full post on this spot soon!

My new favourite thing to do - be upside down wherever I go

This is a storm day at 8am - scary!

Sunrise from my bedroom window

Lunchtime down along the river 

Moving cities required us to have my car full, my parents car full, Chris's car full, a hire van full (like to top to bottom scary full) and a trailer attached to the hire van - phew!!!! 

First coffee on the balcony on the first morning in the new place

I am obsessed with the view from my work - its different every day and i never get sick of it! 

Friday means champagne

Teeny tiny pineapple from the farmers market for $1! (Post to come on that soon too!)

Down at Sandgate 

This is a wall at a yoga studio in the city - Stretch Yoga 

Hehe I get visitors every few days 

This is a snap from the Eat Street Markets - another amazing spot i'll blog about. Its essentially a night food market but each food stall is a storage crate thing - very cool and amazing variety of food. 

Chris's new favourite past time that i don't mind either - fishing! 

This was early one morning on my way to a breakfast talk for work down in Southbank 

Bribe Island Sunsets 

And there we have it - just a few shots from the past few months that i pulled from my phone.
