Meet The Nutty Nuskes
Mum AKA Michelle
Growing up I was lucky enough to holiday regularly with my parents and grandparents. My Pa always encouraged me to travel when I was older and on the completion of my degree (Primary Teaching) I took off on my first overseas adventure. It was on that very trip that I met Troy, a boy from Melbourne, and the rest the say is history....
B.C. (Before Children) Troy and I travelled abroad at pretty much every opportunity. We have been lucky enough to explore Western Europe, East Africa, Egypt, Vanuatu, New Zealand and I threw in a bit of Eastern Europe as well. My favourite international destination is Rome- I truly feel at home wandering the streets there and it holds a special place in my heart.
PC#1 (Post Child #1) we started dragging Larissa off to destinations such as Queensland and Victoria, where we are lucky enough to have friends and relatives. We took off to Singapore in 2017 and then decided to add one more child to our family....
But destiny had other things in store, and along came #2 and #3, our twinsies...and COVID...and so started our Nuske Adventures within our own wonderful country.
When I'm not travelling I am usually planning the next trip. On a day to day basis I am a casual Primary teacher and predominantly a SAHM, which most of the time I love. I look forward to hopefully sharing an amazing resource for families who want to get out and explore and have fun both in Sydney and Australia.

Favourite Australian destination: Kangaroo Island, Sunshine Coast (QLD)
Dad AKA Troy
Troy began his travelling adventures with a trip to London and Paris and a backpacking adventure through Scotland, England and Wales. It was the best decision he ever made, as it led to a long distance romance and a move from Melbourne to Sydney!
On a day to day basis Troy is a Mathematics teacher, golf player, cricket lover and overall sports fanatic.
He is also a pretty decent photographer who seeks out some gorgeous shots while we are travelling. You can view some of his work through this page or through his website: Nooskah Photography
Favourite Australian destinations: Far North Queensland, the Sunshine Coast (QLD) and Uluru
(Clearly making a choice is not his strong point!)
Larissa
Cameron
Cameron
Larissa is the eldest of of the Nutty Nuske kids. At 7 years of age, she is currently in Year 3 at school and is obsessed with dancing and her friends. She will give anything a go at least once and has very little fear! She loves all kinds of sports including swimming, cricket, gymnastics and golf.
​
Favourite Destination: Kangaroo Island and Home
Cameron is our amazing middle child and eldest twin....by one whole minute. He is cheeky and a little thrill seeker, loving a good "pipground" (playground), big slide or waterpark. Currently he is 2.5 years old and is obsessed with monster trucks, Paw Patrol and trains.

Favourite destination: Nana and Pa's House

Teigan
Teigan
Teigan is a force to be reckoned with. Don't let the cute face and dimples fool you, this girl knows her mind. As the youngest Nuske, she is one determined little person who marches to the beat of her own drum...while making everyone laugh. She shows a love of music and dance (probably thanks to her big sister) and is a fan of Bluey and Dora.

Favourite Destination: Nana and Pa's House or anywhere there may be "caaake"
