Shelley Beach to Apollo Bay – 8kms After what feels like not enough planning, suddenly today, I took my first steps on the Great Ocean Walk. The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of work, events and sorting to hopefully have everything I need to walk (and more importantly, Continue Reading

Finding My Peace
