Sometimes when you grow up with something at your feet or nearby you don’t always appreciate it as much as you should. I’ve spent most of my life feeling like I should be exploring places that are “anywhere but here” or “been there before, I wanna go somewhere new.” You forget what your local area has on offer, possibly blinded by wearing your “I live here googles.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The pandemic changed that. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ With international & interstate travel off the table due to border restrictions, old places closer to home became new places again. And in what could be described as a dark time in the Earth’s history, these once forgotten and overlooked gems became the light we needed. Well, in my case anyways 😊😊 The urge to do the “lap” of this big, brown land has only become a lot stronger. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What local gems did you become reacquainted with during the pandemic? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bluemountains #feelnsw #visitbluemountains #holidayherethisyear #wentworthfalls @visitnsw @australia @canonaustralia @siruiaustralia ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #findyourselfoutside #welcometoaustralia #womenintravel #water_perfection #ruralaustralia #nswparks #raw_waters #water_perfection #getintotheoutthere #yourweatherpics #madewithlightroom #adoberisingstars #longexpoelite #easywayphotography #wb_water_brilliance #ozscapers #takemetoaustralia #goneawol #tv_australia #abcmyphoto #igersaustralia #focusaustralia #canonaustralia #exploringaustralia (at Wentworth Falls, Blue Mountains) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg_hx63vglh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
