the leaning tree, at the windiest point in australia, which is why it grew in such a weird way.. there were other leaning trees too, but this was the most extreme example.

the stromatolites in the shark bay world heritage region, earth's oldest living organisms.. they look like rocks, but their outer layer is alive and responsible for oxygen production (i think..) not all of them are underwater, but if the water is still, you can sometimes see airbubble being released from them.. a clear sign they actually are alive!

shell beach. no sand, just shells!! on the whole stretch of the beach! looks amazing..

me holding a joey (baby kangaroo) in denham. its mother was victim of roadkill, and the hostel owner was also an animal carer, so she took him in. have never seen anything cuter in my entire life!!!!!

a dolphin at monkey mia, where the dolphins come up to the beach every day. they are also fed there, big tourist circus, but i got to feed one, was pretty cool!
