I have been a seriously awful blogger since, well, forever. I am sporadic. I create blogs, I cancel them, I create them, I forget about them. Sometimes it’s because I’m too busy, mostly it’s because I’m too lazy.
So, to address the question, ‘where have I been?’, here is an answer:

View from the Bronte to Bondi Beach cliffwalk

The famous Bondi Beach!

Sydney Wildlife World: Terrified of the birds constant arrival and departure. They flew way too close to my face for my liking.

At Echo Point overlooking the Blue Mountains

On the Great Ocean Road outside of Melbourne. AMAZING. Most stunning views I have ever seen.

Oh, you know, the usual...feeding a wallaby.

Yes, I am ziplining, or as the Australians call it 'jungle surfing', upside down. Yes, I felt sick post-zip.

Snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef. This one is post scuba-diving and post being stung by a jellyfish- I have the scars to prove it!

Swimming at Whitehaven Beach...the sand is so white and fine you can clean your jewelry in it!

This is from my 21st birthday last week. It has nothing to do with my travels, but who cares I'm excited!
So that is a super mini-update of what I’ve been up to. I can’t exactly complain. I’m in a program that is split in half, so the first half was primarily travel and class, but I’ve now started an internship with a public relations firm in Sydney, where I work 4 days a week. I’m also taking a class on Australian wine, and we have a trip to the Hunter Valley wine region this weekend, so yay for that!
Blog soon,
Lauren
