Where is Brugge?

Beautiful Brugge

Beautiful Brugge

The medieval city of Brugge is situated in northern Belgium and has nearby access to the North Sea through an extensive canal system. Access to the port allowed Brugge to have significant economic and cultural importance being centrally located to London, Paris and Amsterdam. Other than Amsterdam that is built around canals, it is often referred to as the ‘Venice of the North’.

Many of the medieval buildings within the old city still remain beautifully intact and for this it gained UNESCO inscription during 2000 for both its medieval and its Flemish significance. The combination of the historic architecture, cobblestone square, canals and bridges, creates such a romantic atmosphere and what better way to totally indulge, than to sit and enjoy Belgian chocolates. Sheer bliss in Brugge!

    Where is Byron Bay?

    Cape Byron Lighthouse

    Cape Byron Lighthouse

    Byron Bay is located on the east coast of northern New South Wales and is home to Cape Byron, the most easterly point of mainland Australia. Whilst Byron Bay is relatively small of permanent residents, being the second most visited travel destination in N.S.W, its population can expand three to four times.

    The beautiful beaches of Belongil, Wategos and Clarkes, and the lush rainforest surroundings have attracted visitors over the years but no more so than during the 1970′s, bringing a very eclectic group of residents and visitors. It became the surfy and hippy mecca.

    I remember as a teenager, a visit to Byron Bay to visit family members living there. Their diving business was part of the heart of the natural surroundings. Their home was not too far from Cape Byron Lighthouse and they really did have spectacular views over the beach. What I remember most of Byron Bay, was the laid back atmosphere and the warmer weather compared to that of Melbourne!

    Thinking of a holiday to Byron Bay? A keen surfer? Want to surf harder and longer, get more barrels, bust bigger airs and perform tricks with more style?  Then you need to checkout this ‘Surfing Fitness Program‘ eBook.
