![Exploring the beautiful east coast of Australia, while we’re home. 

So lucky to live in such a beautiful place. 

💙

While the Australian coastline is very clean compared to many other countries we’ve travelled to, there seems to be no getting away from plastic pollution. 

As a responsible traveller, we think it’s only right to leave a place better than when you found it. 

When we come across trash or washed up materials on the beach we can’t help but collect them for proper disposal. 

🌍

This small act performed by millions of people on a daily basis can have huge positive implications for our planet’s wellbeing. 

Cheers to exploring, the right way.
