Thanks to Covid, the whole of Australia has been restricted to travelling domestically for the foreseeable future.

Thankfully, we are lucky to have some of the world’s vastest and beautiful landscapes, making it easier for us to go from the city to nature within minutes.

Bella, who was runner-up to Irena Srbinovskain Locky Gilbert’s season of The Bachelor last year, took the opportunity as a part of the campaign See South Australia to experience all that there is to offer down south.

The couple stayed at the hotel EOS by Sky City and dined at the in house restaurant iTL Italian Kitchen.

Bella posted a picture of her boyfriend beside the hotel’s pool, and she lovingly captioned the post, “Sorry, was he like carved by the Greek gods or something because he can’t be real.”

They also visited the Art Gallery of South Australia and went bar hopping around the city.

Adelaide is currently in the thick of their mad March festival season, and Bella took full advantage of the festivities by enjoying the food and attending a Fringe show.

Of course, it would be a waste to go to South Australia and not visit one of their internationally renowned wineries.

Bella and her boyfriend drove to McLaren Vale to experience the states famous vino.

First, they visited the D’Arenberg winery, where they attempted to mix their own wine to create their unique blend.

Bella explained the process on her Instagram story, she said, “The sippy straw is actually how we measure the amount we are mixing into the blend we’re creating.

“It took me three blends to find the mix I liked.”

Next, the couple found their way to the bohemian-inspired Down The Rabbit Hole winery where they ate steak, enjoyed a charcuterie board and took part in a wine tasting.

Bella and Will have been dating for a couple of months now, but they only became public in mid-February.

However, they seem to be making up plenty of lost Instagram time by documenting their adventures together.

Bella, who appeared on Locky Gilbert’s season of The Bachelor, was recently revealed to have briefly dated 2021’s newest bachelor, Jimmy Nicholson.

“He’s are really lovely human, definitely deserves to find love!”
