Life’s more fun acting 9... with a 38-year-old bank account.

When we had the boys  it was so pivotal for me and owning really living for myself and owning who I was! All the silly and juvenile parts that I’ll never apologies for are front and centre these days.

What do you think? A little bit of a response to the hate we get about either not spending our inheritance wisely (we haven’t had inheritance but the assumptions are real) or being trust fund kids (also not true). Just here working hard and being super mindful and aligned on how we spend our own money.

I will never stop telling you to get up early and go and watch the sunrise. This one at Bulli ocean pool and rock platform was pretty special!

The last one though… we just stumbled across it, and it was absolutely spectacular at sunset. 

The Gold Coast is so much more than Surfers Paradise and its beautiful beaches. From hidden lookouts to peaceful nature spots, there’s so much to explore.

We loved our recent trip and can’t wait to come back to discover even more.

Which spot would you add to this list? Let us know in the comments so we can check it out on our next visit! ⬇️

ENJOY x

The fist time we tried to do this hike a storm rolled in and we got stuck on the side of the mountain for quite sometime as the track turned into waterfalls, so when we told the boys we were only 40 minutes away on our recent trip to the Sun y Coast they said we had to go back to get it finished because ‘the Francis family doesn’t fail’ haha.

If you’re new here, welcome. We are an Australian based travel family and love to share our family adventures. Follow along @thefamilyfind for more!

This hike is only 3km in total, but definitely a leg burner. 

I wouldn’t recommend this walk for those with small children or anyone with knee issues. It’s pretty intense, but our boys absolutely loved it (the harder the better right?) 

📍This one’s Mt Coorora, 30 minutes inland from Noosa. 

Please let people know where you’re heading before you climb, check the weather (do not start the trail if it looks like rain), take water, where good grip shoes and keep the environment pristine. Remember, what you take in must come out!
