BYRON BAY

Hello ! 
You may have seen on instagram, but during the second week of the school holidays, I went on a roadtrip to Byron Bay (aka paradise). Byron is pretty much my favourite place on the whole planet, it it just so beautiful and has the best vibes. I always feel so happy when I'm in Byron ! I had the best time swimming in the ocean, soaking up the sun, eating fresh, nourishing vegan food, jumping into secret waterfalls and catching up with friends. 

 I thought I would share some of my favourite places in Byron so if you ever go you can go to them as well. And have as much fun as I did !

THREE DAYS WITH INDIA

Hello ! Last week, I went to stay with my best friend India for three days. India and I met over Instagram about two years ago and this was only the third time we've met up ! India is the best company and I just love being with her. Here are some of the wonderful activities we did together...

DAY ONE
I was SO excited to see India (and Nico !) again after almost a year !! India drove to Byron Bay to pick me and we had lunch together and took some photos in front of the Golden Breed Surf wall. We talked non-stop on the drive back to her house ! When we arrived, we went straight out to a kawaii photo booth and we had so much fun taking the photos and decorating them. We loved the end result. We also had a quick look in two of our favourite shops, Kikki.K and Gorman. Later that evening we had delicious mexican bowls for dinner and vegan chocolate ice cream for dessert while watching Catbug.


DAY TWO
When we woke up, India and I made breakfast parfaits with berries and yogurt. Yum ! Later on we drove to the Gold Coast and it was really really hot so we went for a swim in the pool. After lunch, we went to Coolangatta for some Messina Gelato. We also went for a stroll on the beach and some lots of acro as the sun was slowly setting. Later, at night, India and I went for another swim in the dark ! 


DAY THREE
Our last day together ! We had pancakes for breakfast and drove back to Byron. We had a look around all the cute shops and did some shopping, and then we went to Cardamom Pod for lunch. We walked up to the beach and sadly had to say goodbye.

We had the best time together - crafting, eating vegan food, laughing, taking polaroids, swimming and talking (LOTS of talking). Thank you for having me India, I cant wait to see you again soon ! You can read more about our three days together HERE on India's blog.

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed todays post !
