Hawkesbury cruising on The Riverboat Postman
Brooklyn and the Hawkesbury hold a special place in my family history. Not only did my great grandparents run the local fish and chip shop in the 1950s and 1960s, but my late mother and father lived here when they were first married. On a misty Monday morning, Sugarpuff and I set off on a […] Read more…
Meet the women who shaped Sydney on a walking tour
We all know the narrative. In 1770 Captain James Cook and a boatload of intrepid blokes arrived in Botany Bay — the then land of the Dharawal people — on the HMB Endeavour.

Family Fun at Four Seasons Hotel Sydney
Reviewed by Raff – Aged 13 I really miss travelling. My feet are itching like crazy and I’m desperate to get back into the world. While food, culture and the people we meet are what I have missed most of all in the year that stole travel, I also find myself really missing […] Read more…

Overnight Sydney sailing for families
“You’ll never take me alive” shouts Raff as he leaps straight off our balcony, having nabbed the last remaining chocolate that’s been generously left in our accommodation as a treat. His annoyed little sister follows straight in after him, intent on revenge. But I’m not worried by their dramatic exit. Our balcony? It’s actually a […] Read more…
7 of our favourite places to scoot in Sydney
We’re big on getting a walk in every day here at Casa Eats World. And by we, I mean me. The kids would rather stick a rusty fork in their eye. Our evening walks were once a time to exercise and hang out together, but they were falling by the wayside as the kids started […] Read more…

Kids Glamp Out at Holiday Inn Potts Point, Sydney

Beauty and The Beast at Sofitel Sydney Wentworth
Once upon a time there was a smart and sweet beauty who loved her family, cake and to dance, though not necessarily in that order. Beauty was a little upset by the behaviour of The Beast (her mother), a mean creature who had the audacity to have been working a few too many hours of late […] Read more…
