After a whirlwind few weeks with weddings, a trip to NZ, and my photography workshop, Planted with Light, Sam and I were blessed to spend a few days on the Gold Coast, before heading back to Melbourne. Sam actually had a Science Conference to attend at Kingscliff. My only job was to sunbathe, relax, and unwind! To say it was bliss would be an understatement. I don’t have many photographs, as I was focusing on truly being present, to soak up and enjoy everything with my eyes, not just my camera…

Although, I did take a few iPhone pictures which I wanted to share. To forever remember that no matter how busy life gets, we should always make time to relax and do nothing. Something about being close to the ocean is just so refreshing for my soul! I loved swimming in the surf, the salt spray on my face, and drifting to sleep to the sound of waves crashing outside our window. After only a few days, we both came away refreshed and re-energised.
