There’s something magical about Adelaide at night …

Eco Style Tuesday - Sturt’s Desert Pea

✨ Easter in Adelaide, South Australia… and the River Torrens is simply glowing ✨ There’s something truly special about Adelaide’s River Torrens in South Australia at this time of year — soft light, calm waters, and those beautiful reflections along the river that make you stop and take it all in. Right in the heart of Adelaide’s city centre, you’ll find the iconic Popeye and Paddle Boats on the Torrens River Adelaide 🚤 Did you know “Popeye” has been part of Adelaide’s story

We spent the day in Goolwa on the Fleurieu Peninsula and honestly — it was just beautiful. Sunshine, fresh air, pelicans gliding overhead and that relaxed coastal feeling you wish you could bottle up. We stopped in for lunch at Imbiss on the Elbow   on the Goolwa Wharf — such a great find. Sitting there watching the boats come and go while enjoying authentic German food (and a stein of beer ) felt pretty special. The food, the view, the atmosphere… all just worked. At the Imb

On International Women’s Day , I’ve been reflecting on that simple but powerful word — journey . Life rarely follows a straight path. There are twists, challenges, opportunities and moments that shape who we become. For many women our journeys include building businesses, caring for families, volunteering in our communities, supporting others and following the passions that guide us forward. Standing here overlooking the breathtaking Flinders Ranges , I’m reminded that someti

Adelaide welcomed some beautiful, much-needed rain today — the gentle kind that freshens the air and makes everything feel alive again. Our South Australian coastlines are known for their fabulous sunsets… and this night was no different. A soft drizzle, umbrellas along the jetty at Henley Beach, and the sky glowing in golden tones as the evening settled in. If you Visit Henley Beach , Thai Orchid  Restaurant is a fabulous place to choose for dining — consistently great food,

🏛 HISTORY FRIDAY | Murray Street, Gawler Standing proudly on Murray Street, this grand building began life in 1873 as the Bank of Adelaide branch — one of the most impressive and expensive buildings in Gawler at the time. Solid stone construction. Spacious rooms. High ceilings. Detailed ironwork. It was described in the 1880s as “one of the chief ornaments of Murray Street.” And when you step inside (thank you to Gawler History Trust for preserving those early images), you c

For sinking your feet into warm sand. For breathing a little deeper. For letting the noise fade away and remembering how good it feels to simply be.

In the quiet of evening, a koala walks slowly along the footpath… Not lost. But searching. Searching for familiar trees. A safe hollow. A place to belong. Koalas are nocturnal mammals, and like all mammals, they give birth to tiny, underdeveloped young called joeys. After birth, the joey instinctively climbs into its mother’s pouch, where it continues to grow safely for around six months. When it emerges, it rides gently on her back, clinging to her fur as she moves through t
