Being unorganised early-20′s, we went Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve. It adds a little excitement, and it’s pretty cool seeing everyone in a festive mood, even if it was 32ºC and very sunny.

We went to Sydney this week for a short break with Zane and Rachel. We stayed in a nice old little apartment (although very basic!) a few minutes from Bondi Beach, a great little surfer town with some fun little shops, bars and places to eat. It was great to wake up to see people [...]
