What’s my scene... So I’ve been told the most important thing you need to do is find your “niche”. I love travel, reflections, beautiful landscapes, amazing experiences, nature, wildlife .... everything already done to death!! Guess I’ll stick to my day job 🤦🏻‍♀️ . . . #whatsmyniche #findyourniche #travelphotography #travel

Tortoise and the Hare 🐢🐇 Seeing this grand old dame being overtaken by a little whipper snapper reminded me of the tortoise and the hare. While it would be thrilling to zip along at high speed there’s also something to be said for taking your time and having a chance to take in the scenery. Travel is a bit like that too. When I was young I was all for 10 countries in 10 days and cramming in as much as possible. However now I really love taking my time and having a chance to absorb the small everyday scenes and encounters that add up to a far richer experience. Hands up all the tortoises 🙋🏻‍♀️ . . . . #slowtravel #queesntown #purenewzealand #wakatipu #openmyworld #myworldoftravel

My last day in Queenstown started off grey and drab (although still gorgeous in any weather!) but then by lunchtime the sun had come out and it was absolutely glorious ☀️. These are some of my last shots as I walked to catch the bus to the airport, all the while thinking “why don’t I come here more often?!” . . . . #queenstown #queenstownlive #purenewzealand #newzealand #lakewakatipu #canonaustralia #openmyworld

On the rocks All along the shores of Lake Wakatipu are the most interesting rocks. I found myself wandering along looking down at the rocks instead of at the scenery! There are loads of flat ones perfect for skipping too, shame I’m an absolute numpty at that 🤭. I hope your week hasn’t been too rocky 🤪. .

Spring has sprung 🌸 Queenstown is starting to bloom and soon will be awash with spring colour. The trees were starting to pop while I was there over the weekend and I couldn’t help wishing I had visited a week or two later to try and catch the full spectacle. But really, I reckon Queenstown would be stunning no matter the season! If it’s not already on your bucket list, it should be!! . . . #thetravelbootcamp2019 #queenstown #queenstownlive #purenewzealand #newzealand #travelphotography #openmyworld #myworldoftravel #bestplacestogo #canonaustralia #canon70d

Birds eye view 🦅 I cheekily asked someone the other day “are you even a photographer these days if you don’t have a drone??” but you don’t need a drone taking off from Queenstown airport! The views over the mountains and Lake Wakatipu are divine - the hardest part is trying to decide what side of the aircraft to book your seat!! These shots taken from the left side departing the airport. . . . #queenstown #newzealand #purenewzealand #queenstownlife #openmyworld #aerial #canonaustralia #canon70d #thetravelbootcamp2019 @virginaustralia

Fire on the mountain 🏔 🔥 Back to work this morning and I’m really going to miss looking out at killer mountain views. Queenstown really is in the most fabulous location and whether you enjoy adrenaline fuelled adventure, more peaceful getting back to nature or top notch food and wine - there’s more than enough to keep you happy here!! Until next time Queenstown! . . . . #purenewzealand #queenstown #thetravelbootcamp2019 #newzealand #remarkables #queenstownlife #openmyworld

Gratitude 🤗 Being in Queenstown again has been such a delight and brings back wonderful memories of my trip here last year with my travel posse. It’s also made me think about how fortunate I’ve been to have travelled to so many spectacular places that it’s hard to pick a favourite. But no matter how spectacular the destination, my favourite holidays have been made even more spectacular with my favourite peeps. Now my favourite holidays involve getting the posse together, renting a big house in a scenic location, and laughing like hyenas over the silliest of things. As they say, the best things are always best shared. @stayzau @thetravelbootcamp #thetravelbootcamp2019 #stayztravelbootcamp #stayzau

Sunrise view 🙌🏻 Confession: I slept in 😴 I was meaning to get down to the lake for sunrise but I was just so warm and cosy it didn’t happen. However I did stand on my balcony and watch as it developed, slightly kicking myself I didn’t get up but glad I could get out of the cold quickly!! One shot taken with iPhone and one with DSLR - can you tell which one’s which?? . . . . #queenstown #purenewzealand #newzealand #travelohotography #thetravelbootcamp #thetravelbootcamp2019
