Ever since I came to terms with the fact I wasn’t going to get a proper summer here in rainy Melbourne anytime soon, I’ve been dreaming about laying on a crystal-clear beach, with blue skies, a balmy breeze and a good book. Throw in a cocktail (or two) and we’ve got the absolute dream situation right there, amirite?
In pondering where I could make my beachside dream a reality, my TikTok algorithm (unsurprisingly) pointed me in the right direction. I got sucked into a bunch of those infamous “Day In The Life” videos by my favourite TikTokers @naomikebble and @alidaballestro who recently set off to the Philippines for 10 days.
