Thanksgiving is about taking time to pause, reflect and give thanks for the incredible people, experiences and things in your life. This year’s Thanksgiving was one of the most magical holidays I’ve ever had.
Ash Katch, Jemma, Zac, Elliott (The Neverland Boys Co), and I headed down south to Margaret River for a 2-day Soul Camping adventure. As we drove into Contos Camp Ground we spotted two beautiful tents set up with rugs, pillows, and a wooden table. We went on a Thursday and so it felt like we were the only ones around (aside from the Kangaroos).
We put our stuff away, took some snaps, and set up our Thanksgiving Dinner that Zac’s mum, Jantal, made for us.
We went around the table having heart-to-hearts and sharing what we we’re grateful for in our lives, and particularly this year. Taking time to stop, reflect and celebrate life and what we’re grateful for is so important. There’s something about sharing those reflections with others that make the good energy around it feel even more expansive.

About a 2 minute drive from the campgrounds is an incredible view overlooking the ocean. We brought up some blankets and pillows and chilled out for the sunset.
Getting out in nature is such a good way to feel grounded and present in the moment. Soul Camping was a good reminder to pause and connect with good friends and have meaningful conversations wherever you are. It made me want to have more nights like this with friends, disconnecting from our phones, and enjoying life to the fullest together.
On the second night of camping, I needed to post something on Instagram and so Ash and I went out on a little journey to find enough service so that my post would go live.
We walked through the campgrounds and the only thing you could see were the stars. It was one of the most gorgeous things I’ve ever seen and the feeling of looking up and seeing those stars made me feel excited about life, guided on this adventure, and that I was on the right path.
I am so grateful to have had this experience Soul Camping and thank you to Zac, Elliott, Ash and Jemma for making it so incredible. (and Jantal!) x
