Three years ago I signed up with Voxy to write travel stories. Ha, two and a half years and two kids later - there ain' t much travel been going on. So breaking with convention I have decided to write about whats going on in my life - that is being an 'un-yummy mummy'. 

First Trip Advisor rated Nelson 3rd best small town to live in  - IN THE WORLD! Yep there is something to be said about a beach town surround by skiing mountains and national parks.

Talk about dangling the carrot......now I'm not a donkey (maybe an ass....) but somebody out there wants us to be healthy......and its really cool! Little old Nelson has over five hundred fruit and nut trees available for public pilfering.

If your looking for something spectacular, why not head to the largest gathering of people on the planet?

Excuse me while I type - quickly - in a hurry - I have my four month old son on my lap, jiggling up and down, typing one handed.
