Hello Sunshine!
We’ve all been taken on a whirlwind and adapting to a new normal, to say the least! The current climate has forced many events to cancel and restaurants to close, leaving us cooped up in the house. Even through this time of isolation, it’s important to look up at the beauty around us and keep smiling. Luckily, we’re able to lift your spirits up this week and rid those corona-blues with some good news and a little bit of sunshine in your lives. There are new local happenings you need to know about from all things music to Easter fun! Let’s hop to it!

GC things to do to make your lover swoon
Ahhh, Valentine’s Day. It’s one of those days people (generally single women) either scoff at and rolls their eyes when the flower deliveries start appearing on everyone’s desks at work, or it’s a day where couples can actually show a bit of affection for each other without being seen as soppy idiots. Either way, the Gold Coast is brimming with fun-filled or quirky things to do with your lover (or yourself, if you are one of those eye-rollers) this 14th of February.

Here are some cool gift ideas that are a little bit different than usual but could very well be the best gift yet.
