And then also I put out 41 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: a question box yesterday where you could write to me 42 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: on Instagram and ask me to answer some things in 43 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: this podcast specifically, which I'm also going to do. So 44 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: that's kind of the format of today, And it's a 45 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: little really simple, kind of like chit chat and check. 46 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: In for Byron Life. 47 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: Alrighty So, like I said, I promised last time, i'd 48 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: tell you my favorite at the end of last episode, 49 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: i'd be like, all right, faves yog spot. So I've 50 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: tried two different yoga studios since I spoke to you. 51 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: Last one is Creature Yoga, which is in the industrial 52 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: area of Byron, so it's technically not in the town 53 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: bit of Byron. It's just on the outskirts and it's 54 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: really easy to get a park, which makes me happy. 55 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: They do yinn, they do vinyasa, and they do hatha, 56 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: and I've done one of each of those classes over 57 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. 58 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: Really cool vibe. 59 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: Yogi because it's got the crystals on the balcony, but 60 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: then it's kind of got this industrial feel too because 61 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: it's got the really cool cement walls. I want to 62 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: say anyway, I would highly highly recommend checking out Creature Yoga. 63 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: And they have a holiday pass so you can just 64 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: buy like a week long holiday pass if you're in 65 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: town and you want to keep a yog's practice happening. 66 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: And vinyasa is kind of what I'm trained in, so 67 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: it's really nice when that's kind of the style of 68 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: yoga that feels really comfy and home view. And I've 69 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: been loving the afternoon yin classes because I often will 70 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: walk the lighthouse in the morning and not really feel 71 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: like vinyasta in the afternoon. So they've always got like 72 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: an Arvo yin on, which is great. There's a teacher 73 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,839 Speaker 1: on the schedule called Jimmy and he's like I think 74 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: he's a Shiatsu massage therapist, so his assister unreal, but 75 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: also just a great teacher. Boss and I have been 76 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: going to a few yoga classes ourselves together. Another yoga 77 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: class I tried is in Mullum or Mullum Bimbi and 78 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: that's called Seeker and Kind. And I did the Ushtanga 79 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: vinyasa class with an awesome teacher called Yorlanda. 80 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: So it's like I think their Sunday morning class. 81 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: It is stronger for me than a vinyasa, but you 82 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: feel so good after it's a ninety minute practice. They 83 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: also offer vinyasa there. I think they're offer yin as well, 84 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: so that's really cool. If you're staying a bit more 85 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: out of Byron, like if you're staying in Brunswick Heads 86 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: or Mullem, that studio is probably going to be the 87 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: one few, so that's called seeker and kind. And then 88 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: next on my list is I really want to try 89 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: Body Mind Life, which I actually taught out in Sydney, 90 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: fun fact, many many years ago. 91 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 2: So they do pilates and. 92 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: Yogus separate rooms, separate studios, but like the same studio, 93 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: should I say, but separate rooms within the studio. 94 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 2: So I'm quite pumped to check that out. 95 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: Of course I've kept my hog up as well, Harder Vinyasa, 96 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: which is Duncan, and he's also moved up here and 97 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: I think he'll be teaching soon as well, So loads 98 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 1: of yogs if you're up here, my advice would be 99 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,679 Speaker 1: for each of those locations. The good thing about Body 100 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: Mind Life is if you're staying in town, you'll probably 101 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: just be able to like walk there from the Atlantic 102 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: or wherever you're staying in town. The industrial estate one 103 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: you'd probably need to drive to. Amulum you'd probably need 104 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: to drive to, So just think about either hiring a 105 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: car if you know you want to do some adventuring, 106 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: or if you're staying in town then I'd just been 107 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: doing Body of myne life and it's right near comby, 108 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: so you can do your yokes and then get your 109 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: smooths the smooths smoothie after. So I want to talk 110 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: hikes next because I've done a few of these for you. 111 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: So lighthouse you've probably seen on my insert stories. I 112 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: do it. 113 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: I love it in the morning because it gets really 114 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: busy by like eight even seven. It's busy if you 115 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: started at seven and it gets effing hot. 116 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 2: So I've done it at all different times the day. 117 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: I've done it first thing at sunrise, I've done it 118 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: like nine or ten o'clock in the morning, I've done 119 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: it in the middle of the day, and I've done 120 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: it as the sun goes down. Sun goes down is 121 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: really nice as well, and you tend to see like 122 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: dolphins in the arvo, which is really pretty. And can 123 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: I say last Saturday, we did the Lighthouse walk in 124 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: the middle of the day, which was hard because it 125 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: was so hot, but we saw about five different pods 126 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: of dolphins and then we saw a shark, so cool, 127 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: and people like, oh, how did you know it wasn't 128 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: a dolphin? Dolphins one, they're in pods, so there's like 129 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: a gang of dolphins. Sharks are all low hunters as 130 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: far as I'm aware, and a shark looks more serpenty 131 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: in the water, so it's kind of like almost moving 132 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: similarly to a snake wood it's kind of making that 133 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: s shape. This is only my own observation, so if 134 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: there are any shark its experts listening, please let me know. 135 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: I love learning about sharks and every marine life, every 136 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: bit of marine life. Whereas dolphins they kind of like 137 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: so they go up, they kind of like come up 138 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: to breathe, and it's more like they're making a little 139 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: wave with their body, but there's nothing serpenty about it. 140 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: I hope that makes me the sense. So they kind 141 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: of come up and out of the water, whereas the 142 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: shark obviously stays in the water and has this almost 143 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: s curve to the way that it swims. 144 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 2: Cool. 145 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: So lighthouse walk, it's a definite. I didn't know this 146 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: until I moved here. Matt and I would always park 147 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: it the hard park and then kind of do the 148 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: walk from the lighthouse to the most easily point, but 149 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: that's super short. What I like to do is I'll 150 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: park at Clark Speech and then I'll walk along Clark 151 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: like on the walking track. It goes Clarks, then I 152 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: think it goes Captain Cook's, then the past, then water 153 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: goes and then you start the incline and it's all 154 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: through forest and everything. It's a big workout, an awesome workout. 155 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: You feel awesome, you sweat, it's really really good. 156 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: Even this morning, did it in the rain and it 157 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: just felt unreal.

I really want to kayak with the dolphins. 201 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: I'm kind of saving that when my dad comes up 202 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: because him and I are real adventure people. Bosso is, 203 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: but not so much the deep water, although he's learning 204 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: to serve so he's doing pretty good. But Dad and 205 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: I are gonna we want to do the kayak trip. 206 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: So depending on what time of the year it is 207 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: will depend on if you see dolphins or orphans and whales. 208 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: I would love to do it in whale season, but 209 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: that's also I think that's winter as well, So whenever 210 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: Dad comes up, I will be kayaking and I will 211 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: report back. You could also snorkel and scuba die around 212 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: Julian Rocks, and that's meant to be incredible, incredible marine life. 213 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: It's also meant to be home to a few sharks, 214 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: but not necessarily big eas I know there's like leopard. 215 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 2: Sharks there, and I'm sure they'd be brief sharks. 216 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: So that's why I'm kind of like, oh cool, I'll 217 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: just see about that one I'm funny about dark water 218 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: and too many sharks, but the rest sign me up 219 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: for Also, I did an Indigenous guided to Us or 220 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: guided Aboriginal too when I first moved here around the pass, 221 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: so that's kind of a meeting point. The pass is 222 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: like a big beach by the way with lots of 223 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: newbie surfers go, but there's beautiful lookouts and it's a 224 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: beach that you can walk to from the center of 225 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: Barron if you wanted to. And they were saying in 226 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: this walk and tour that I did that Julian Rocks 227 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: is a sacred side and that that's why there is 228 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: such amazing marine life there. And I learned some dream 229 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: time stories about Julian Rocks. So if you're like, what 230 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: is she talking about with Julian Rocks, If you're ever 231 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: in Byron and you do either the Lighthouse walk or 232 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: you just look from Byron Beach or from the pass 233 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 1: and look out, you're going to see these two big 234 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: rocks in the ocean that look like a baby island, 235 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: and that's called Julian Rocks. And there's a beautiful dreamtime 236 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: story where a boy and girl, Romeo and Juliet Styles 237 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: were betrothed to be with other people, but they were 238 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: in love, and so they got a canoe and rowed out, 239 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: and one of their parents didn't approve, and so they 240 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: speared the boat. But the gods wanted them to be 241 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: to get together forever, so they turned them into two rocks, 242 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: and that is Julian rocks. So that's got to be 243 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: good luck, right, like good love and vibes. So I 244 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: thought that was really really cool.

We were still 340 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 1: both seeing our therapists via zoom during lockdown, and we've 341 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 1: continued seeing our therapists via zoom moving here. So I 342 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: feel like the mental health stuff I always have to 343 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: credit my therapist for that, and that's kind of I'm 344 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: very very pro being open about that with you. As 345 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: far as it like necessarily changing my mental health the 346 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: sea change, I wouldn't say that a sea change changes 347 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: your mental health. I think that whatever you're facing wherever 348 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: you are, will come with you eventually. I do think 349 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: though bar and Bay is very healing, and it's very 350 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: it invites you to look after yourself and nourish yourself 351 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: and nurture yourself. So I would say yes and no. 352 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: So yes, it is great for mental health Byron Bay. 353 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 2: But I wouldn't. I can't credit just a sea change 354 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 2: to looking after mental health. 355 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: I'm very, very vocal about having a therapist and that's 356 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 1: my non negotiable for mental health. I hope that helps 357 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: question for best coffee spots in Byron Bay. So I'm 358 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: just going to rattle some off kind of what's the 359 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: saying like shotgun start like? Is that the saying like 360 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: we just rattle them off like dot point style? Because 361 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: in last week's episode, I went through all the cafes 362 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: in a fair bit of depth. So this is anywhere 363 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: that I say has got good coffee, there's probably a 364 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: great chance they're gonna have wonderful food. So I love 365 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 1: Woods Bangalow. They do incredible food. But on a coffee sense, 366 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: they've got the local roasted. I'm pretty sure they stock 367 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: which is Moonshine coffee, which is and Bay roasted, and 368 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 1: they do a beautiful it's called dirty. 369 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 2: I actually think I spoke about it on the last eep. 370 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: It's called like a dirty cold nuts and it's like 371 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: a cold nut milk with ice and then you tip 372 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 1: your espresso shot over it. It's really really yummy. They 373 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 1: do a beautiful oat latte. They do bulletproof coffee, which 374 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: is where they're adding the mcto or. 375 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 2: Oil and the butter. Really yummy. 376 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: And they do lovely black coffee, so Woods Bangalow pop 377 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: that on your list. I really like Vagabond, which I 378 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: also mentioned last week, so I'll Trynament. 379 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: It is quite quick. 380 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: They do bulletproof medicinal mushroom coffee, oat lattes, black coffees, 381 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: iced coffees, you name it. 382 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 2: It's really really yummy. 383 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 1: I love Ethel for coffee in Brunswick Heads they do 384 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: a beautiful housemade almond milk. 385 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 2: They do oat milk. They're really delicious. 386 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: I went somewhere recently, Oh Punch and Daisy in mull 387 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: and Bimbi they have their own two house housemade cold 388 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: pressed milks. One is macadamia an almond which is super creamy. 389 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: It's probably my favorite, and then the other one is 390 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: almond on a cashew and hemp, which is also delicious. 391 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: But my favorite was the macadamia and almond. Oh, I 392 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: just realized it's market day Mumbiby tomorrow, which means I'll 393 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: be able to get one of them. So that's a 394 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: punch and daisy in mull and bimbi ah where else 395 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: I hadn't just absolutely love coffee. 396 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 2: I'm just trying to think. 397 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: Oh, I had a great one in town at Bayleaf 398 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,959 Speaker 1: last weekend. They do another cold kind of like so 399 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: it comes out in a jar and it's like filter 400 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: black coffee and they give you a tiny little baby 401 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: jar of like a whipped coconut milk. Can you pour 402 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: it over the top And that's delicious. General Store does 403 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: a version like that as well, but I really want 404 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: to try. Moonshine Roasters have their little cut like they 405 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: have a little cafe in I think it's definitely in 406 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: Federal and it's in a B word I want to say, 407 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: like a lungere, but I'm probably wrong. It's a B 408 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: word that's not Byron Bay. But yeah, And you can 409 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: get coffee from the roaster, which is kind of like 410 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: one of my favorite ways to get coffee, like direct 411 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 1: from the roaster, because it's such a fun experience and 412 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: the beans that I've bought and tried are Moonshine, which 413 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: is the local coffee roaster here. 414 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 2: Oh, lots of coffee talk love it. 415 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: Okay, the cost of living The next question is the 416 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 1: cost of living in Byron Bay. 417 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 2: Okay, So if you come here. 418 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: In holiday mode and you're eating out all the time, 419 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: it's expensive. And I'm pretty sure they have taxes at 420 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: cafes on weekends. So yes, if you're here and you're 421 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: treating it like you're on holiday and you're constantly eating 422 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: out and you're constantly going out for drinks and whatnot, 423 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: it's going to be expensive. 424 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 425 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: There's a rumor that the Woolies in Byron Bay is 426 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: the most expensive woll is in I don't know if 427 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: that's true or not. But we do a lot of 428 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: our shopping so we'll buy stuff at the farmers' markets, 429 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: which is a really cheap way to buy fresh, organic, delicious, 430 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: best quality produce, and then any kind of extra stuff 431 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: that we need we usually go to the Woolies at 432 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: Mullum or Balana. So yeah, you just kind of get 433 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: to be a bit savvy about it. And like, yes, 434 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: we've just come out of Christy New Year, so we've 435 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: been eating out a fair bit, but usually Boss and 436 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: I cook a lot at home, so that will cut 437 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 1: down costs as well. So cost of living, it's kind 438 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: of how you choose to make it and how you 439 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: want to enjoy your time environ. It's completely up to you. 440 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: But you can be savvy about it or you can 441 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: be indulgent. And same with Sydney. It's I've always found that, 442 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: like you've got to, you know, just be really aware 443 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: when you're buying because even Boss, like I said to Boss, 444 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,239 Speaker 1: we would go out for brecky with people. I need 445 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: to get a coffee and then you get breaking there 446 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 1: your second coffee. I'm like, dude, we only need one coffee, like, 447 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: and so you can just be really really mindful and 448 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: it kind of makes a bit savvy as far as 449 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: cost of living goes. So someone said, what is the 450 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 1: yoga scene like versus Melbourne and Sydney. I would say 451 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: it's pretty similar. Creature and Body Mind Life are going 452 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 1: to give you that power living. You're going to get 453 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: that feel if you go to Power Living in Melbourne 454 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: or Sydney. Body Mind Life is in Sydney. Yeah, the 455 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 1: yok yogis that are in Melbourne. You'll get that from 456 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: definitely creature. I haven't been to Body Mind Life yet 457 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: to give you a, you know, an exact experience, but 458 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: I think you'll find that you can hunt out yoga 459 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: nearly anywhere you are nowadays. 460 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 2: So I would say similar. 461 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: There's, like I said, three studios all in reasonably small radius. 462 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 1: So yeah, I would say yogs. If you're a yogi, 463 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: this this is a good place to travel to and visit. 464 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: I will say there's a lot of out of work 465 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: yoga teachers though, so if you're coming up and wanting 466 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: to relocate and you're like, I'm going to be a 467 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: yoga teacher, like the job offers just aren't there at 468 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: the moment. Okay, bar and bay trip in a day, 469 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: like what you would if you're in Byron for one day, 470 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: what you would do? 471 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: What you would eat? 472 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I'd get up at sunrise.

Accidentally, I was 512 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: meant for going to America, and you know, everything shut down. 513 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: So we moved to Talkie and just to kind of 514 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: wait it out. And we really loved the pace of life. 515 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: We loved being close to nature. We realized we could 516 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 1: work from home, well like so many other people realized. 517 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: And we were looking we were figuring out what we're 518 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: going to do after lockdown, and I said, I don't 519 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: really want to move back to Melbourne because I was 520 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: planning going to Americas, Like, I just don't. 521 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: It felt backwards for me. 522 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: And then Boss was like we were toying with Sydney 523 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: because it's really great for the music scene and my 524 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: agent's there, and then we kind of landed on Byron 525 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 1: because it's only a forty minute aeroplane flight from Sydney 526 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: and we were like, oh my god, we love this, 527 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: We love Byron so much. And that's how Byron happened. 528 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,479 Speaker 1: How did we find our accommodation really hard. Took us 529 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: three months. Had to have all the paperwork already uploaded 530 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: before we had someone viewing the site for us. Definitely 531 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: signed the document that approves it for sight unseen because 532 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: we did that so that means you haven't actually physically 533 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 1: been to the property. But yeah, the trick is having 534 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: all your paperwork uploaded. They've got these like upload systems 535 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: and then it's quite different to Melbourne or Sydney. And 536 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: then yeah, have that uploaded by the time the inspection 537 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: or like the open house is so that whoever's going 538 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: there to view it for you can be like, hey, 539 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: Jamie has already uploaded his document. You'll have him on 540 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: your database. He really wants this place, I'm happy to 541 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: like tell you now. And so you're kind of ahead 542 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: of everyone else. That's like, oh, this looks cool, I'll 543 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: upload mark application form and the application form is a 544 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: pretty long process and it's very competitive. We got told 545 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: we beat two one hundred other people for the place, 546 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: so yeah, I would just say get ahead of it 547 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: and do the paperwork beforehand if you can. This is 548 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: the second one about money. Is it pricey? Like I said, 549 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: you just got to be savvy about it. If you're 550 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: eating out all the time, yeah, costs. If you're not, 551 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: it's not going to be So you just got to 552 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: pick your battles. 553 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 2: But it's also Chrissy in New Year. 554 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: So and Matt's got family up at the moment, so 555 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: you know we're eating out a little bit more than 556 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: we usually would like to.
