A splash of colour from Lismore’s Back Alley Art Gallery. Every visit leads to a new discovery. #lismore #nsw #cometotheheart #visitlismore #lovelismore #backlismore #backalleyartgallery #streetart #streetartaustralia #mural #murals #streetartphotography #instatraveling #travelinggram #repeattraveller
Hotels with character are always our preference over their cookie-cutter counterparts. There’s more interest, more personality and style. This one — @theoldclare in Chippendale — definitely fits that brief. The rooms are stunning (like this suite we received a status-based upgrade to through EVT Stays) and the ground floor bar and restaurant inside the original hotel part of that quintessential Aussie pub experience. Oh, and the rooftop pool and bar are great too! #theoldclarehotel #theoldclare #independentcollection #evt #sydney #sydneyhotels #instatravel #hotelsoftheworld #boutiquehotels #repeattraveller
Throwback to our 2018 visit to Kyoto’s gilded Kinkaku-ji Golden Pavilion. The first shot is that iconic view across the pond everyone clamors for… and the second, the vantage point to get that still and serene image. Still an achingly beautiful place to visit though. #expectationvsreality #rokuonji #kinkakujitemple #konkakuji #kyoto #japan #lovejapan #visitkyoto #visitjapan #visitjapanjp #visitjapanau #instatravel #travelingram #travelstoke #repeattraveller
I’ve admired @r_o_n_e’s artworks from a distance for a while, but today finally had a chance to see them in person at the brilliant TIME exhibition at @artgallerywa. It’s beautifully done with 12 different immersive art installations, including a library, theatre and typists pool. Lights flicker and the sound of distant explosions booms, adding to the eerie atmosphere. It’s on until September 30. #rone #artist #ronetime #artexhibition #artinstallation #mural #murals #artgallerywa #perth #perthisok #astw_inc #instatravel #travelgram #travelstoke #repeattraveller
Behold, the ‘croffle’ — a croissant squishied in a waffle iron, topped with fried chicken and a spicy jalapeño salsa. Aka today’s breakfast at @sayerssister in Perth. #perth #westernaustralia #thisiswa #croffle #foodiegram #foodporn #travellingthroughtheworld #exploremore #traveldeeper #repeattraveller
It’s a whistle stop visit to Perth, but I’ve still managed to squeeze in a bit of street art hunting. Here’s a vibrant mural in Northbridge. Who is she? What’s her story? #perth #westernaustralia #thisiswa #streetart #streetarteverywhere #perthisok #visitperth #mural #murals #instatraveling #instaart #traveling #travelstoke #travelgram #astw_inc #repeattraveller
What kind of winter witchcraft is this?! A toastie and tomato soup, combined. Seriously delicious and a perfect choice given the wet and rainy weather outside. Ask for the ‘dunking toastie’ at @ginnjinnbyronbay - you won’t regret it. #byronbay #ginnjinnbyronbay #byronlife #byron #toastie #winterwarmer #travelgram #travelstoke #foodiegram #foodporn #getinmybelly #repeattraveller
The word ‘beautiful’ gets tossed around a lot, but it’s perfectly fitting for Byron’s brand new @basqhouse hotel (three weeks old and counting). It’s beautifully styled and impeccably finished — like walking into a well-travelled friend’s house filled with artworks and curios collected from their adventures. While there’s no public bar or restaurant, guests can order a mix of alcoholic/non-alcoholic drinks, teas and snacks to enjoy poolside, in The Library over a good book plucked from the shelf, or in the Living Room — linked to the lobby and filled lounges, armchairs and even a chess board for good measure. As for rooms, they boast an ‘industrial chic meets Mediterranean’ vibe, with streaming functionality on the TV, USBs by the end (both Type A and C) and a minibar stocked with beers, wines, and cocktails. #hosted #byron #byronbay #basqhouse #byronlife #hotels #astw_inc #instatravel #instatraveling #travelstoke #travelgram #executivetraveller #repeattraveller #feedyourwanderlust
Zoom meetings are all well and good, but nothing beats an in person meet-up. Today was a hugely-successful one of strategising, reconnecting and thinking outside the box with the @astw_inc Board — made even better by our base in the old principal’s office at Boyd Community Hub in Southbank. Some fantastic happenings in the works. #astw_inc #astw #melbourne #southbank #vic #victoria #thisisvic #community #travelwriter #repeattraveller
A pop of colour to brighten up my feed, courtesy of this impressive mural on The Pierside Hotel in Santa Monica. #santamonica #santamonicabeach #losangeles #california #visitlosangeles #visitcalifornia #streetart #streetarteverywhere #murals #mural #streetartlosangeles #travelgram #travelstoke #instatravel #repeattraveller
Gearing up for a return to Los Angeles this week. So, what better way to get excited than looking back through photos of our last LA adventure? 2017. Far too long, really. Venice Beach is due for a repeat visit. #venicebeach #losangeles #la #unitedstates #sunset #california #visitcalifornia #visitusa #travelgram #travelstoke #instatraveling #travelphotography #repeattraveller
It’s always a pleasure showcasing our home to visiting friends and family. Even better when they’re certified divers! Naturally we jumped at the chance to show off Julian Rocks-Nguthungulli Nature Reserve off Byron Bay — one of our absolute favourite dive sites thanks to its mix of warm and cold water species. Leopard and grey nurse sharks were a highlight. #byronbay #byron #nsw #nswparks #julianrocks #scuba #scubadiving #sundivebyronbay #leopardshark #greenturtle #repeattraveller
