After relocating from Canada to the scenic coastal town of Inverloch with his wife & family, Wade Bashaw has transitioned from skiing in Canada to Stand Up Paddle Boarding with the exact same smile of pure enjoyment and is constantly inspired by the local environment and relaxed lifestyle. He started North South Homes with his wife (super talented local photography Sue Carmody) in 2015 after noticing the need for builders to get on board building environmentally sustainable homes. They have since developed a strong philosophy around building homes that support current & future goals of reducing global energy usage.
We’re human. We all like to think we spend less time aimlessly scrolling through our phones than we actually do. So, ask yourself: What do you do on your way to work? Or on your lunch break? What do you do during the tv ads? Chances are you scroll your Facebook and Instagram feeds. And when you want to know if those ominous clouds pose a threat to your daily commute, or if your child’s sniffle is worth a trip to the doctor? You search Google. When you put it that way, it’s easy to see how we spend so much time on the internet. In fact, the average Aussie spends a staggering 6.8 hours a day on the web… and only 8 of those minutes is spent on realestate.com.au.

She has a wealth of knowledge and is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise stuffy industry.

We escaped the heat this afternoon and called into Inverloch's latest pop up store Fig & Willow and caught up with the delightful owner April Morris, a lifelong Inverloch local who has been running her business online successfully for the last year and has just opened her first pop up store right next door to Gusto, possibly the best Gelato shop this side of Melbourne.
