"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover".

-Mark Twain

Watego's Beach






WATEGO'S BEACH is definitely my favourite of the Byron beaches.
It reminds me of some of the more secluded coves you find at Noosa National Park- so its a touch of home, with the added bonus of being able to see my beloved lighthouse.

I've sat and watched the sun go down, I had my third surfing day (you can see Im slightly getting better at holding the board!), I've seen a firey-hula-hoop-er, and I've had an insanely good picnic with my amazing basket (see dad, told you it was worth all the space is takes up in the van! :p)
....on that picnic note; if you have never tried dried apricots and brie cheese together, DO IT. Incredible!

Byron Bay lighthouse..
My favourite place in Australia.

Its one of those places where I can (& have!) sat for literally hours. Its so overwhelmingly beautiful. Why do we so often wait until we're away on holidays to make an effort to do things like that?? There's so much beauty on our doorstep. Next time you're driving past a beautiful beach or park i dare you to stop the car & take a moment to enjoy it. It's those moments you never regret. And i plan to look back on my life & know i've made the most of each day
