Most outdoor activities are on the bottom of my list of things to do when travelling, especially if they involve some sort of physical exertion or risk. My husband, on the other hand, loves these activities. So if we do engage in outdoor activities, it’s probably either his idea or me balancing out our itinerary … More Review: Mount Coo-Tha Lookout Trail Hike (Brisbane, Australia)
Brisbane Night Market opens every Friday from 4pm to 10pm, and the same organizers also run the Saturday Fresh Market and the Sunday Discovery Market at the same location. It took quite a bit of time to travel out here by public transport from the city centre. I would’ve come for the other two markets … More Review: Brisbane Night Market, Rocklea (Brisbane, Australia)
This quaint little cafe nestled in the middle of a residential neighbourhood was the perfect place to have a quiet lunch with my husband. Although it took a bit of walking to get to (under the scorching afternoon sun, no less), we were rewarded with a nice view of the river that ran parallel to … More Review: Bumbles Cafe, Surfers Paradise (Gold Coast, Australia)
My husband and I initially wanted to have dinner at another restaurant but when we went there, we found out that it was closed. We then walked along the same street to find alternatives and saw Malt House, which was in our list of restaurants to check out. The restaurant interior was rather bland and … More Review: Malt House, Surfers Paradise (Gold Coast, Australia)
This may be the first review on my blog about markets but it will surely not be the last because visiting markets is my go-to activity on ANY trip. Flea markets, night markets, Christmas markets, farmers markets, you name it and I’m down (if they’re good). Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets only set up for business … More Review: Surfers Paradise Beachfront Markets (Gold Coast, Australia)
My husband and I chanced upon this place while walking around looking for a lunch venue. It was along a street that was mostly populated with Asian restaurants. The prices and food photos on the menu looked pretty decent, so we decided to give it a go. Compared to the other Asian restaurants we peeked … More Review: Gusu Chinese Food Restaurant, Surfers Paradise (Gold Coast, Australia)
Betty’s Burgers was my favourite restaurant of the whole trip and I’m so glad that TripAdvisor and its reviewers led my husband and I here. They have many branches all over Australia so it seems like they’re doing really well, and rightfully so! The branch we dined at was the one at Chevron Renaissance Shopping … More Review: Betty’s Burgers & Concrete Co. Restaurant, Surfers Paradise (Gold Coast, Australia)
During an Uber ride to Dreamworld Theme Park (which I reviewed here) the day before my husband and I visited Sea World, our driver made a passing comment that Sea World was “a whole lot of nothing”. I took his appraisal rather seriously and thought to myself that he must know better since he’s a … More Review: Sea World Marine Theme Park (Gold Coast, Australia)
Boasting the title of Australia’s biggest theme park, with a good balance of both ride and animal attractions, I knew my husband and I were in for quite a bit of walking if we wanted to see everything the theme park had to offer. A ticket to Dreamworld also grants you access to WhiteWater World, … More Review: Dreamworld & WhiteWater World Theme Park (Gold Coast, Australia)
I absolutely looove Italian food so I couldn’t wait to dine here at Vapiano, which is located right in the heart of Surfers Paradise. They use a system where each customer is given a card to record all their transactions on. Customers can walk around to peruse and order what they want from the different … More Review: Vapiano Italian Restaurant, Surfers Paradise (Gold Coast, Australia)
