When visiting the Yarra Valley, Gin lovers can now rejoice by visiting the Four Pillars Gin Distillery, open daily to the general public. Just one hour from Melbourne, on the main street of Healesville is an inspired initiative by Four Pillars in what was an old timber merchant's shed, recently transformed to a craft gin distillery.
International travellers have been flocking to the Fraser Coast in recent years for its natural beauty, whale watching adventures and frolicking on Fraser Island. However, it's the bayside beauty of Hervey Bay that gets my vote for a relaxing weekend getaway.
No matter the length of the trip – be it a weekend getaway or week long beach holiday, you'll need to pack a bag and you'll want to pack it right. Whether you're concerned about saving space or luggage size restrictions to comply with airlines, organising all your belongings can seem like an impossible feat.
In the early days of alluxia, I was conducting site inspections of Byron Bay houses and unique accommodation to start our collection and met with the charming owner of a relatively well-known property.
If Bendigo hasn't previously been on your travel hit list, then it should be. This grand Victorian regional centre manages to attract world-class exhibitions, and the latest offering is not to be missed! The incredible Marilyn Monroe exhibition is currently showing at the Bendigo Art Gallery until 10 July 2016.
I have a confession to make; I'm falling a little bit more in love with the Gold Coast, every time I visit. In recent years, the GC has received a bad rap in the media, particularly Surfers Paradise, but we saw none of that on our recent trip. So, if you're looking for a great night out with friends and fun in the sun, then you'll find it here on the GC!
