When you think of the French Rivera all the glitz and glamour immediately comes to mind. You're picturing stunning beaches, beautifully tanned people and maybe even a particular film festival. Well, all those assumptions are all pretty much true.

Two nights in Spain definitely wasn't enough. So far it's the place that's surprised me the most in that I had an absolute ball and loved the city of Barcelona. We had one full day in Barcelona so of course we packed it with everything Gaudí.

When you think of bucket list cities, Paris is probably the first one that comes to mind. We've all seen a million pictures and movies set in Paris but actually being there is kind of surreal. With only a couple of days, we knew we could only fit in the main sights, but we tried to explore the streets as much as possible too.

Welcome to France! Our first stop is the Palace Of Versailles in Paris, which housed the kings and queens of France up until the French Revolution. Opulence is an understatement at this place.

Going to the Warner Bro's Harry Potter Studio tour really is a right of passage for any massive Harry Potter fan like myself. I've seen so many videos and photos of the tour but once you get to experience it in person, that's when the magic begins.
Camden Town
Camden is amazing. Enough said. It's probably my favourite place in London that I've explored so far and for good reason. The streets are lined with art and shops as you wander through this bohemian town.

London has got to be one of my favourite cities, I always feel so at home. My first day back here and London has well and truly turned on summer!

You can't really get more Melbourne than a New York inspired bagel bar in an inconspicuous red brick building down a graffiti lined laneway now can you.

My Dad and I have been obsessed with Heston Blumenthal since we first laid eyes on his culinary masterpieces. We've seen almost every episode of Heston's Feasts and Heston week on Masterchef is hand-down our favourite. So for my Dad's birthday this year, it was only fitting that we dined at Dinners by Heston Blumenthal at Crown Casino.

Did you ever watch the movie FernGully as a kid? It was one of my favourites, and exploring William Ricketts Sanctuary makes you feel like you've shrunk down to the size of a fairy.

Sometimes the best places to explore are in your own backyard. So in honor of this philosophy, we spent all Sunday afternoon gallivanting around the Dandenong Ranges in search of adventure.

Bagels have got to be one of my favourite foods and the bagel I devoured at Schmucks Bagels has got to be up there with one of the best I've ever had.

Your eyes do not deceive you, the food you see is green, and that's because it was served at Melbourne's first matcha based cafe Matcha Mylkbar!

A few weekends ago I was in Fitzroy with a few friends checking out Brunswick Street. Now being south-siders, we don't often venture over to the north side, but today we decided to make the trek (it's really not that far) and happened to stumble onto the Rose Street Artists' Market.

Yes there's a cake expo on in Melbourne. Yes it's on today. Yes you should probably jump in your car and head over there right now!

Experiencing the Melbourne Star Observation Wheel has been on my list of things to do in Melbourne since it first opened, however I've never got around to going on it... until now.

If you, like me, don't know a whole lot about art but need a hit of culture in your life, the Andy Warhol and Ai Weiwei exhibition is the exhibition for you!

North South Feast West are back again with the Courtyard Cantina at Melbourne's Immigration Museum. With yummy food, drinks and cocktail tasting sessions, it's a perfect start to your Friday night.

The Queen Victoria Night Market has become somewhat of an institution in Melbourne for not only tourists, but locals as well. Located on the outskirts of the CBD, it's the perfect place for after-work hangs or showing off this amazing city (which is what I was doing).

It's crazy how you can live in a city for your entire life and not know an entire street exists. This is exactly what happened to me. I did not know Postal Ln was a thing and discovering it meant discovering more delicious places to eat in Melbourne.

There's nothing like a good sunset and being on a rooftop in the middle of one of the world's trendiest cities only makes it even more spectacular. We'd climbed up the multiple flights of stairs of Curtin House to reach Rooftop Bar for the annual Rooftop Cinema.

Who said vegetarian or vegan food had to be boring. Certainly not me, and if you need convincing you obviously haven't been to St Kilda's Vegilicious.

Happy Australia Day! What better way to celebrate than to listen to the Triple J Hottest 100 and look at pictures of cute Aussie animals!

There's a pretty obvious reason these are called Insta Shakes. It really is very hard not to Instagram these bad boys when they're presented to you.
