Basically, the only premise to this pod 11 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 1: or this travel special is that I have to have 12 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,319 Speaker 1: experienced everything I tell you about every review I give you, 13 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: I have to have actually done it or I'm booked 14 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: in to do it. Because there's a few things I 15 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: want to talk about. There's one thing I want to 16 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: talk about that I haven't tried yet, but I am 17 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: doing it next week. So we will cover food, coffee 18 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: of course, drink spots at fancy meals, relaxation, movement so 19 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: like exercise, and then I just want to break down 20 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: the difference between Byron Bay and Northern Rivers, for you're 21 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 1: not going to start with that. So Byron Bay is 22 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: like one Township, right, But the Northern Rivers, which is 23 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: when you come and travel to Byron Bay usually go 24 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: into other areas like Bangalore or Mullumbimbi or Suffolk Park, 25 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: is actually part of Byron Bay. But Lennox Heads, Balana 26 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: where else Federal Federals. Oh, we're going to be talking 27 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: about Federal because it's got one of my favorite food 28 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: spots in there. I'm actually making note of it so 29 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: I don't forget. So when I do this app, it's 30 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: actually going to be all of the Northern Rivers, and 31 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: this is where I spend half of my time. It's 32 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: an awesome part of the world. It is like truly 33 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: living in a health retreat, but you can all get 34 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: all those other awesome things too, like you know, go 35 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: out for really bougie dinners, and you can go out 36 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: for awesome cocktails and stuff like that as well. But 37 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: if you want the health and wellness life, it's kind 38 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: of ingrained in the DNA of Byron Bay. So let's 39 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: start with food. Me being a FOODI and a nutritionist, 40 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: these are probably gonna have a little bit of a 41 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: health twang, but you can totally still get your normal 42 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: brackeyas and whatnot there. Okay, first of all, so many 43 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: foodie spots. I think we need to start with Woods 44 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: in Bangalow, obviously because we're really good mates for the 45 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: boys who own it, Andy and Sam. But also it's 46 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: just a really good venue if you've got dogg O's, 47 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: if you've got bambinos. It's loads of outdoor seating as well, 48 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: so it's very COVID safe as far as like it's 49 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: all fresh air on your outdoors. I mean a lot 50 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: of places here are like that. And also I found 51 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: in La which is the next episode, not to give 52 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: too much away, a bit like that too. 53 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: It's really easy to eat outdoors. 54 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: So Woods is my favor because one, I can go 55 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: really really healthy and get delicious kind of like sardines 56 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: and salads or green smoothies. But I can also then 57 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 1: go really treaty and get my favorite gluten free vegan 58 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: banana bread, which is ten out of ten on the 59 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: delicious scale. It's goodbvibe, great coffee, great smoothies. I'm obsessed 60 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: at the moment with their tropical smoothie, which is like 61 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: mango pineapple, but it's got collagen and all the good 62 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: stuff in it too. So Woods Now that's in Bangalo. 63 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: That's not in Byron Bay. It's about fifteen minutes out 64 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: of Bangalo. Now I've got a huge list here, so 65 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to try and rapid fire through them all 66 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: in case you're not a foodie and you're like, no, 67 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: I just want to get to the exercise stuff.

You can get like a boiled egg, but 79 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: if you don't feel like you want to mixed up 80 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: but stay really healthy.

A really great place to go is the Farm. 176 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: It's in Newingsdale. It's very iconic. It's huge. You could 177 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: spend half a day there because it's literally a farm. 178 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: There's like piglets and loads of chickens from Oliver's Hens, 179 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: who we've actually interviewed on the podcast and they're all 180 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: like happy chickens.

So 188 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: it's a really good one if you want to get 189 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: the kids to burn off some energy and check out 190 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: the little piglets.

That's again that Asa Bowl. I've 195 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: had Buckwheat gluten free waffles there which were incredible. They 196 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: do this yummy coffee there which is like it's a 197 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: cold brew, and then you put a shot of this 198 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: like condensed. It feels like condensed milk, but it's made 199 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: from coconut. It's made from coconut. I'm making myself salibate 200 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: just thinking about this. It's made from coconut nectar and 201 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: coconut cream and it's really, really, really good.

Okay, next next 351 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: topic is relaxation, so I have to talk to you 352 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: about Comma. That's where I go for my massages or ps. 353 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: None of this is sponsored. This is literally just what 354 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: I've tried and like. So Comma is really nice. It's 355 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: near a little yoga studio in the industrial area called 356 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: Creature Yoga, which is a really popular yoga spot. I've 357 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 1: been a few times. It's it's always a pinch far 358 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: from wherever I live, like Boston. I lived in Bangalore 359 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: for ages and it was just a lap pinch further 360 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: for me.

Another cool place that I've had a 386 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: really great massage is at Gaya. Now everyone thinks she 387 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: needs to be staying at Gaya to get a massage there. 388 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: You can actually book in for a massage and lunch 389 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: shafter on site, which is a really cool thing to do, 390 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: and you go a bit early and swim in their 391 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 1: mineral pool and then have your massage and it's very 392 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: luxurious and beautiful and unreal.

We were very lucky we knew 395 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: the owners at Gaya, but nowadays we don't know them, 396 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: so I haven't been, so I don't know if that 397 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: rule still exists, but it did when we were there. 398 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: They do facials as well, but yeah, if you're visiting, 399 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 1: booking an advance for Comma, it's really really good and 400 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: not crazy expensive and booking, I would recommend the Vessel. 401 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: I've tried a few of them, but the Vessel is 402 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: my favorite.

Another thing that I'm actually doing tomorrow that 419 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: I haven't done. 420 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 2: In probably Yeah, I took dad last year. But they 421 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 2: have a rule that if you don't see dolphins, you 422 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 2: get to go again for free.

So yeah, we're going again on Monday. 428 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a really cool thing if you want 429 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: to have like just another experience you're a bit more 430 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: of an adventure person and you want to get out 431 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 1: on the water. He's really cool. There is also snorkeling 432 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: at Julian Rocks. I've just never done that before. I've 433 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 1: had friends do it. I'm just a bit weary, weary 434 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: of sharks, so I generally the kayak feels a little 435 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: bit away from a little bit like still adventure but 436 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: a little bit less sharky. I say that now, who knows, 437 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: but yeah, so I would. Kayaking is a really fun one. 438 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: The company that I found was called Go See Kayaking. 439 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: I think there's a few different companies that do it, 440 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: but we really thought they were great there. If you're 441 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 1: a yogi like me, there's lots of yoga around here. 442 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: So I mentioned before Creature Yoga, Body Mind Life, great yoga. 443 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: But there's a newsio that's just open that is incredible, 444 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: beautiful inside, super clean. It is called of Heart of 445 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: Vignyasa and it is created and run by Duncan paban 446 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: And who we've had on this podcast before and who 447 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,919 Speaker 1: I did my three hundred hours yoga teach training with. 448 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 2: He's incredible. 449 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: He's so well trained and has a passion for not 450 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: just the spiritual side and the yogs, but also anatomy 451 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 1: and so you feel very safe in his classes. He's awesome. 452 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: And Boston, I've been to a couple of classes now 453 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: and where hooked. So I'm loving this convo of going 454 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: combo of going to pilates and building really specific muscle 455 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: groups and building strength and building that was like this 456 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: resilience within the muscles, and then you go to yoga 457 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: and you get to stretched out and you get that 458 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: like the spiritual. Like yesterday, the theme for the yogi 459 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: class was all about like letting go of the ego, 460 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, which you know, it's easy not to like 461 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: spend time on that and kind of get caught up 462 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: in the ego. And it was quite nice because yesterday 463 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 1: was a full moon, so it was all a bit 464 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: of letting go. There are loads of hikes to do here, 465 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: so you can just google best hikes in Byron Bay. 466 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 2: There are heaps. 467 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: A good one to do though, if especially if you're 468 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: staying in town is definitely the Barron Lighthouse Walk, or 469 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: people call it Lighty. You'll probably see dolphins, you'll probably 470 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: see turtles, you'll definitely see bush turkeys, you'll definitely see 471 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: those Eastern Water water dragons. Matt did it two days 472 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: ago and saw a snake. Like you'll see animals for sure. 473 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: The lighter one is just so great because it's in town, 474 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 1: it's easy to get to, it's. 475 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 2: Really popular, but it's really really good. 476 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: Another one that's really good because you're allowed dogs on 477 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 1: that just ps and so we've found because obviously we're 478 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: dog sitters. Nowadays, the Lennox Headland Walk is dog friendly 479 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: provided they're on lead. So that's a really good one 480 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: if you've got a pooch with you. If you want 481 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: a really amazing immersive waterfall one, the Goon and Garry 482 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: Hiker is really cool because you're actually hiking and you're 483 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: in the top of the waterfall, so you're literally like 484 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: in there'll be like a little pool and the waterfall 485 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: be dropping down to the water like it's you're in 486 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: the top of that cannot be kind of vibes. You're 487 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: in the top of like where the waterfall is dropping, 488 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 1: and you can look across like this valley and you 489 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: can see the waterfalls dropping on the other sides. 490 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 2: It's really really cool. 491 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: That walk can be long and can be shot. You 492 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: just decide where you want to turn around. Minion is 493 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: also a really popular one, beautiful waterfall. You can even 494 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: just drive and look at the waterfall this big lookout. 495 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: But I think the hike, which I've never done before 496 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: again can't take doggoes. 497 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 2: On that one. 498 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: That hike is something like half a day, like it's 499 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: a big if you do the full thing, like it's 500 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,719 Speaker 1: full hikers. You know it's a biggie, but just google 501 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: like best hikes in Byron Bay when you get your 502 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: Airbnb best hikes in that area. Another thing just I 503 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that I mentioned before the end 504 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: of this pod is farmers markets. There are so many here. 505 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: It's a great way to buy ingredients. The food is 506 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: so fresh, it's so healthy, it's so delicious. Farmers' markets 507 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: are un real. So every week that like there are 508 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: different ones. Like on Monday you've got New Brighton, which 509 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: is more in the Ocean Shores area. H sorry, that's 510 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: on Tuesdays. On Thursdays you've got Byron Bay, like the 511 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 1: one in town and that's incredible. They're right for Christmas. 512 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: Then on Fridays you've got Mull and Bimbi. On Saturdays 513 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: you've got Bangalow. And then on Sundays, like there's like huge, 514 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 1: big like art craft markets all over the area. So 515 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: the Bangalow one's incredible, the Shannon one's awesome. They're just 516 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,959 Speaker 1: really really good. It's a good market destination. So like 517 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: definitely like google when your book what market will be 518 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: on this weekend? So the Sunday one will be a 519 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: bit more definitely still foodie and plants and all that 520 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: kind of stuff, but you'll get really cool like pottery 521 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: and like there's a really cool fashion label up here 522 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: called Rowie and they have like always cheaper stuff at 523 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: the market. 524 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 2: So definitely sus the market. Sitch. 525 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: I didn't do one for fashion, but you know there 526 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: are some great fashioning places up here. You've got spell 527 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: like that's where it originated from here. I think the 528 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: one's called him Him that's in the main street. That's 529 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: that same whimsical spell kind of vibe. I really like Rowe. 530 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 1: Rowe is in the main drag Enviyron but also in 531 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: Bangalow and the stuff in Bangalo is like a slightly 532 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: bit reduced or it's kind of like not the freshest 533 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: stuff as in the Byron Bay one gets all the 534 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 1: new drops and then the Bangalore one gets the stuff 535 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: after it's not like it's a couple of months old, 536 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: and sometimes they reduce the prices, which is handy to know. 537 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 1: I quite liked. I think it was called one Fable. 538 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: They were in Bangalo, but that's not there anymore, so 539 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm recommending that too. There's a 540 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: flagship store for I think ben Roy, which Matt went 541 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: to the launch of that us the middle of iby 542 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: of stuff, so I didn't go to that launch. And 543 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: then you've got Nagnata there too, which is like this 544 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: famous Yogi gear that's all up here, like it is 545 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: quite a bit of shopping you can do up here, 546 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: for sure. And then you've got like Habitat, which is 547 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: part is in the industrial area where I mentioned that 548 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: cafe Vagabond or Vagabond, I never say that word, right, 549 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: but that's got low of shopping and really cool like 550 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: there was a jewelry brand I loved. I think it's 551 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: called F and H and the really cooled local designers, 552 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: local stuff really really not and you get you can 553 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: totally shop here. It's a you know, it's a bit 554 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: of a one stop shop, good old Byron Bay. But 555 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: I would urge if you're like, okay, I've been a 556 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: few times and you've stayed it like all the usual 557 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: places that you stay, Like there's Byron at Byron which 558 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: is now called crystal Brook. There's Elements, there's the Atlantic, 559 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: there's the Bowery. There's quite a few like standard places 560 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: like when you come to Barron, I've stayed all of 561 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: those places that I've just listed to you. But it's 562 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: really cool to jump on Airbnb and to like suss 563 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: out a little different area. And that's what Boston I 564 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: used to do when we didn't live up here and 565 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: lived in Melbourne.
