Dunsborough and Margaret River with Lena!

It's been bloody ages since I've written a post, its ridonkulous! I went down to Dunsborough and then Margaret River four days after, nearly a month ago, and I can't believe I haven't written anything about my time there, because it was the best week and a half I've had since I've been here.
The hostel location in Dunsborough was fucking amazing, I kid you not. When the driver called out that it was my stop I honestly could have peed myself with glee.


I mean seriously, that was my garden for 4 days!

So while we were in Dunsborough, Lena and I rented a car, which was sooooo useful to just go where we pleased, and obviously so much cheaper than doing day tours where you have to pay towards transport. We did so much in those 4 days. Stand up paddling was FO SHO my favourite. We did it in the most beautiful spot, just gliding around in 30 degree heat, was just blissful, and so incredibly peaceful. Lena and I got some really good shots, but they're all on my camera, so I need to get them on here pronto!
The Ngilgi Caves were also absolutely amazing. 4,000 year old caves that had hundreds of thousands of crystal formations. Again, it was such a peaceful experience, and the way the lights lit up and reflected on the crystals, made it look ethereal. We also did some olive tasting, cookie tasting, and chocolate tasting, which were all so delicious. Oh, and sheep sheering was soooo interesting to watch, spent an hour learning about the trade and watching a demonstration. Then we got to hold and feed the lambs. Eeeeek.




The next 6 days we spent in Margaret River with THE most awesome German boys, Toby, Phillip and Torsten. Hi guys :) we spent the week visiting different beaches, cooking delicious food and consuming copious amounts of goon. Apart from one night when we watched Pitch Perfect. Lena taught me the cup song so we just HAD too! I also had a crack at surfing. FYI I was fucking terrible, but glad I gave it a go.
