I never dreamed I'd grow up to be this super cute

I never dreamed I'd grow up to be this super cute glamping lady, but here I am, killing it.😛
.
To be fair being a super cute glamping lady at @nomadic.belle wasn't hard since everything there is cute itself. Cute and comfy and fluffy.😊
.
We were super happy to visit @nomadic.belle and another part of Australia at the same time - Lake Lyell. Being situated only 2.5h drive from Sydney, it provides a great weekend getaway. You can relax in nature, spend time on lake activities or visit the nearby town: Lithgow and have a coffee in The Lithgow Tin Shed.
.
On the way we also passed through Blue Mountains National Park. Unfortunately, (but to the joy of Matt) we didn't have time for hiking, but at least we can say that we've been there. There's this unusual rock formation there called: Three Sisters, who according to the legend turned into...you guessed right - stone.😛 Isn't that the legend about every mountain btw, that someone was turned into stone.😛
.
Anyway, thanks so much @nomadic.belle for inviting us and allowing us to explore more of Australia.😊
.
Don't forget to use 'AGA20' for a discount on your next booking!
.
Btw are you a lake or a sea person?

Australia, I ♥️ you! . Ever since I started lo

Australia, I ♥️ you!
.
Ever since I started looking more closely at Australia on Instagram and following people from here, I knew Australia might be a place for me. And now, after being here over 2 months...I'm even willing to marry for a visa.😛
Ok, that was a joke. But the fact is, that I absolutely love it here. I know it's just from a tourist point of view, but I'm sure living here is equally great.
.
So what are amazing things about Australia?
✅super nice and friendly people! And not like fake friendly, sincerely friendly and you can feel it!
✅everything is so well thought out, people-friendly and clean. Starting with water fountains everywhere, through facilities and accessibility for disabled, to clean, public toilets that are everywhere - yes, I notice those things.😛
✅there's great coffee everywhere. Even when a place looks like it doesn't have good coffee, it does.
✅avocados taste amazing! They are seriously sooo good! And you don't have to worry about mafias and cartels abusing farmers, because they're mostly grown here.
✅the weather is (normally) great😉 we've been kinda unlucky with the weather lately, but I'd still consider Australian climate, especially the southern one,as good for living.
✅and of course I don't have to mention the incredible and varied landscape: from the tropical north, through the desert to fertile, green south.
.
With leaving Australia soon, I already can't wait to be back to explore more of it. Because there's sooo much to explore!
.
Have you been to Australia? Would you like to visit?

Today it’s our 6 months’ anniversary of travel

Today it’s our 6 months’ anniversary of travelling full-time. “Full-time” is actually a good name/word because it is indeed a full-time job. . I have to admit in the beginning I wasn’t feeling it. I was waiting for it for so long and when it finally happened it wasn’t what I expected. There was even a time when I started hating travelling and was scared that this feeling will remain forever. . So what was I expecting? Well, what you see on Instagram: laptop on the beach and cocktail under a palm tree. Firstly, try taking your laptop on the beach in 35 degrees. Secondly, I could count on one hand how many times “real chill” happened.😉 . So let me share a few personal insights of how full-time travelling really looks: ❇️you’re constantly doing research. Research on what to visit, where to stay, where to go next, how to get there, where to eat, where to have coffee, where to get a mani-pedi…all the time! ❇️it’s simply physically tiring. Carrying all your crap with you can be exhausting. ❇️you become more picky with what you visit, because not every place is worth visiting. ❇️unless it’s sth really amazing and different, visiting new places becomes kinda monotonous after a while. ❇️you appreciate it when you can stay in one place for longer. . I’d have a lot more insights like, finding good wifi (even in Australia) is not easy, I have new appreciation for TV in the bedroom😛 if I ever have an apartment, I know exactly how I don’t want it to look like…and so on😉 . But what full-time travelling does to you is, it changes your approach to travel. Or at least it changed mine. I’m a new fan of slow travel, of simply staying in a place for longer just to experience everyday living there. Even if I don’t go to “must-visit”places in a particular place, it’s all good. And that part is awesome. . Well, that’s obviously just my opinion. But for now, we’ll continue to travel FT as long as we can!

I hope someday to write something worth plagiarizi

I hope someday to write something worth plagiarizing.😊
.
Probably my new Thailand blog post is not it, but someday...
.
But if you're planning on going to Thailand soon, for a holiday or for a longer trip, make sure to check it out.
❗️LINK IN BIO❗️
I was trying to pour all the knowledge gained during our almost 4 months there. Well, not all. Just useful. If it was all, this blog post would have more than 3500 words.😛
.
Speaking of useful knowledge, this photo is from one of the temples in Chiang Mai: Wat Pha Lat. Or how I call it - the jungle temple. I already wrote about it in the "Best temples in Chiang Mai" reel, but it looks way better in the photo. There was a really cool, mysterious vibe there and I'd recommend a hike up there to anyone. No worries, the hike is not difficult. Just go to Thailand, get to Chiang Mai, find the Monk's Trail in Google, hike for 30 min and you're there!😛
.
Btw, do you still read travel blogs?
.

Not all who wander are lost. Sometimes they're jus

Not all who wander are lost. Sometimes they're just looking for rocks.
.
And we found one! Two even!
The rock you see in the photo is called Sigiriya Rock (aka Lion Rock) and it's the most iconic Sri Lankan landmark. It's actually a rock fortress, but I'll write about that another time.
Ok, no, I probably won't because I didn't go there, so it's an old fortress that also used to be a Buddhist monastery, it's expensive to go there ($30) and...that's it.
.
More interesting for me was the place from where you can admire Lion Rock - where I sit in this photo - Pidurangala Rock. After the train ride, hiking up there and watching the sunset from the top was my favourite Sri Lankan experience.
.
And yes, you have to hike there. So what should you know about this hike?
✅it takes about 20-30 min from the entrance;
✅it's not hard, although later on you have to use your hands and take big steps;
✅the entrance costs...depending on the day, I suppose. We paid 1000 LKR pp. @entireworldtravel who went there 3 weeks before us paid 500 pp.
✅to enter you have to go through the temple (temple grounds) so you have to take your shoes off and cover your knees and shoulders. Luckily you can grab a free sarong at the gate;
✅there is a lot of space up there since the rock has 2 levels. I preferred the first one and if you want to watch sunset in peace, you better go like 45 min before;
✅don't worry about going back in the dark - the whole path is lit.
.
What iconic location is your country famous for?

There's no "we" in fries.
.
Who agrees?😛
Especially if they're as good as in @ozokandy Mixed with some wine and nice views - chillout guaranteed.
.
Actually, in my case this sentence would have to be: there's no "we" in food. Because sharing food is not something I like to do.😛
"Aga doesn't share food"! I'm simply always too hungry.
.
While Sri Lankan cuisine in general will be never be my favourite, there are a few dishes worth trying:
✅string hoppers with yellow dhal curry and spicy coconut sambol
✅kottu rotti - It resembles fried rice, except instead of rice, it's made with a type of roti known as godamba roti
✅rice with 7 side dish curries - including Wambatu moju, which is made of fried eggplant and spices
✅coconut pancakes and coconut rotti - perfect for breakfast with some fresh fruits
✅and...I don't know if this next thing has a name, but I'd describe it as pancakes with caramelized coconut. It was very sweet, but very very tasty.
.
Those are of course all vegan dishes. They do have plenty of meat, egg and milk based dishes too.
.
Are you the "Joey" in your relationship?😁
