Hands up if you’ve tried organising a bunch of friends for a weekend away? If you’re the chief organiser in your group, you’ll know what a tough job it is to decide on a venue & budget that suits everyone. Organising 9 girls for a weekend getaway is like herding cats! It’s even more difficult when some are mums with commitments to juggle to ensure their escape for a well deserved, relaxing weekend away.

We recently made our annual pilgrimage to the Sunshine Coast for the Noosa International Food & Wine Festival (NIFW) to share a weekend of sunshine & happiness with friends. The crew of 6 made our way up the coast separately from Brisbane, the smart ones took the day off work and came up early, the unlucky ones left Brisbane late Friday afternoon and endured 3 hours of traffic. But it was worth it, to relax and enjoy a weekend of good food, wine and friendship.
