Great Ocean Road!

skipping forward a week into my Melbourne trip! :)

ah! editing these images took me two and a half days and it felt like an eternity. these are the ones i was happiest with from the day i went on a tour to the Great Ocean Road!

i went alone on the one-night tour and it was such an amazing experience that is just beyond words. everything was beautiful, people were so nice and i felt so blessed and lucky. travelling alone did somewhat open my eyes and made me realize that i definitely want to do more of it, maybe even incorporate it largely in my life. i'm planning to work and save up for my dream travels!

also, this was my first try at doing proper editing on landscape photos, (because i've not cared much for them before and also because this time, these are photos of the most beautiful places i've ever been to) and i'm quite pleased with how they came out and i hope you would be too :)

hope you're all having a great week xxx

p.s. if any of you are on flickr, go on and add me as a contact! i'd love to get to know you :)
or if you don't, i'd appreciate it if you checked my work there! (some of these photos are on there and they look amazing on the new layout, just be sure to press L!): my flickr

i'm still alive, yes! just been away to Melbourne for a couple of weeks. here are photos from my first two days there! :)

i've been back home in Malaysia for less than a day now but my heart aches to go back to Melbourne already (or to go for more travels). it was such an amazing home away from home and most definitely the best time i've spent travelling/away from home.
