Back where I'm happiest!
Girraween National Park, Southern Queensland. "The Pyramid" hike is one of the steepest hikes I've ever done. Vast expanses of granite as far as the eye can see. Steep, sheer drops and no guard rails. Definitely worth wearing shoes with plenty of grip.

Yellow tailed black cockatoo having a dinner of banksia seeds!
Springbrook National Park is an amazing place, situated in the Gold Coast hinterland, in South-East Queensland.
It is abundant with wildlife. Some of the wildlife I witnessed include these gorgeous yellow tailed black cockatoos (pictured), marsh snakes (pictured), bettongs, red necked wallabies, brush turkies, rosellas and grass parrots.

Sunsets like these are worth getting bitten alive by mosquitoes for!
Only 45mins North-West of Brisbane CBD is the spectacular (and hardly known) Mount Samson. Nestled in the hills of the great dividing range, it feels remote and pristine. The sunsets over mountains are memorable! Definitely worth the visit!

After a refreshing summers day swim in this pristine, freshwater waterfall, and after a beer and a snack, it was time for photos!

Scrambling on all fours up Mount Cooroora for this view!
This hike is not for the faint hearted! It is a very steep, technical scramble up slippery rocks on the side of the mountain. But damn, all of it becomes worth it when you get to the top and see this view!

Cataract Falls, South Lawson Waterfall Walk, Blue Mountains National Park. 🌏🌿
This waterfall walk is 3km long, and has 5 waterfalls on the trail! Definitely worth the stop next time you're up that way!
