I am pretty sure you are busy scheduling your trip to The Great barrier Reef and The Green Island, also you must have heard thousands of things or fun ideas from travel and tourist agents, but when you get a minute, make sure you scroll down to the following local people’s favourite places, they are all in the heart of Cairns CBD, It only took me less than 2 hours in the morning to pay a visit to them all.

Ranked as Top #1 Cafe and Restaurant in Cairns by Tripadvisor. This little juice and smoothie vegan bar is hidden in Grafton arcade, staff are super friendly, they have options from all kinds of vegan salad to vegetarian sushi roll, or you can just order one of the many yummy and healthy smoothies.

No matter you are looking for the organic 75% dark chocolate, all kinds of spices, seeds, nuts or Dried Mulberries. You can find them here at The Source organic and healthy Bulk Foods.
This Italian Cafe is right next door to the Source Bulkfoods.
I ordered my food first then shopped at the Source Bulkfoods when the chef was playing magic with his hands. haha.
Petit Cafe, 79 Lake Street, Cairns

Rusty’s Market run the whole day friday and the weekend. Dont miss out fresh farmers products, local jewellery and make sure you dont miss out these “big fat coconut cut open when you pay” service.
If you are a nature and plants lovers, make sure you visit Cairns Botanic Gardens.
Combining relaxation and leisure fun, make sure you stay at Novotel Oasis Resort Cairns.

For Visitors to Cairns, I suggest to stay at Novotel Cairns on Lake street, I heard it has the biggest swimming pool among all cairns resorts.

I was in Yeppoon with my friend earlier in 2015, I conclude this is a unknown and hidden place most of the time of the year. There is a little church painted in white right next to the beach standing with all the palm trees, I feel like i can have a wedding here, hehe. As there are no people here all day long, only one beach truck escorting quietly on the unlimited coast line.
I always likes Queensland more since its forever summer,
I love sunshine coast more as it has everything Gold Coast to offer and the bonus is the extra piece of peace. Continue Reading…

yeap, one out of ten best destinations rated by Flight Centre, here I am, at this yet crowded place, enjoy its fashion minimal whites and tropical atmosphere.
Cairns marine and pier point is my most visited place during my stay at Novotel Oasis Resort, love watching boats starting their day sailing out of the harbour, with golden sun colour coated when the sun just rising. There is not much noises here but the boats engines, it is kind of music to me.

If you are visiting Brisbane for a holiday, you may think that Southbank is beautiful, the river is nice, and the food in newstead is cool. But for people working in brisbane, the best wish will be the weather won’t go like the weather in Melbourne. but rather than that, there is much to expect when you are walking in the valley or spring hill. We luckily passed by this little local church just between 4000 and 4006.
Let me know if you know any really coooool brisbane spots so I can put in my next time’s travel agenda.
While Nina and i surely will take the ferry from Brisbane river and have some vintage hunting in paddington. ( not the Padding in Sydney ! )
Keep tuned for our coming sunday Brisbane shooting and travelling!
Good night !
