Teaching Yoga in Kampot ~ Banteay Srey Project, CAMBODIA
Down by the river in a little ol' riverside town called Kampot, in the south west of Cambodia teaching yoga and flowing with life. There isn't a place in this world I could of chosen to begin my yoga teaching career that would of been a better choice than Banteay Srey Project and Spa.
Pretty Pai ~ THAILAND
From what I'd heard about Pretty Pai, I kind of new I might fall in love with the place, but I didn't think it would be so instantaneous. As soon as I arrived in my bungalow (next to a rice field with a view of the mountains), I immediately tried to cancel my apartment in Chiang Mai and I'd wished that I'd brought all my possessions so I could stay longer.
Waterfalls for Days ~ AUSTRALIA
Ahem! Anyway...When I started this journal, the name 'Chasing Waterfalls' was meant to be kind of metaphorical (like in the TLC song ; ), but I may have sparked a bit of a waterfall obsession here.
The Beatles Ashram ~ Risikesh, INDIA
Set in the Rajaji Tiger reserve at the foot of the Himalayas in Rishikesh~the valley of saints, sits the abandoned 'Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Ashram'. It was coined 'The Beatles Ashram' after the Beatles visited in 1968 to attended a transcendental meditation training session with the Maharishi...
Elephants + Waterfalls ~ Kerala, INDIA
We drove for three hours from Fort Cochin through some luscious greenery to an elephant orphanage called Kodanad Elephant Sanctuary. It was a bit sad to see them in chains and occasionally being whacked with sticks, although I think this might be a theme in India...unfortunately.
Fort Kochi ~ Kerala, INDIA
Blink and you’ll miss it, my initial thoughts on India: entirely lovable but crazy as a coconut. A good intro to India is the state of Kerala, meaning ‘full of coconuts’. I’m told that it’s much calmer than the north and the big cities. Some lubrication for the madness of the north!
Fingal Head ~ AUSTRALIA
It can be a little challenging living back on the Gold Coast after 10 + years overseas in the UK & Europe. Although the beaches are beautiful...
Byron Bay Weekender ~ AUSTRALIA
Maybe it's because it's the first place in Australia that the sun touches each day but something happens to you when you're in Byron Bay...
Namaste Candidasa ~ BALI
OK I know I have talked about a lot of special places on this blog, but this one takes the cake. I almost don't want to post about The Gedong Gandhi Ashram in Candidasa because it holds such a special place in my heart...
Nusa Lembongan, BALI
I had big plans for Nusa L. Lots of Yoga, some snorkelling, maybe try some diving as Nusa Lembongan is THE place for diving but unfortunately the universe and my little toe had other plans...
Little Ubud, BALI
Ahhh Ubud, you little treasure. Ubud is up there on the list of special places, you could say that its more of a feeling than a place. But it is a place. Its definitely a place...
Canggu, BALI
One of my fav cafes was The Green Ginger Noodle House. The perfect place for a post yoga sesh dragonfruit smoothie bowl and a cup of ginger tea (see pic above). So much goodness!!
Lovely Lisbon, PORTUGAL
I fell hard for Lisbon, the cobbled streets, the architecture, the trams from the 1930's, the custard tarts, the way that the balmy streets are alive with late night diners and the people...
Mallorca Magic, SPAIN
Women who support other women live longer and happier lives… And when they get together for holidays...
