the Wilds at the Artists' Beach House, 2015

Artistshouses are an amazing selection of six holiday homes filled with art, soul and good vibes, in North Queensland, Australia and Berlin, created by Matthew, Tina, Pablo and Hugo Wild. Tina Gonsalves is an artist. Matthew Wild is a chef. Their son, Pablo Wild is nine and sees the world as his home. Little Hugo is loving the adventures. We travel a lot, but when we are not, we live between Beautiful Port Douglas,and amazing Berlin, and we love to spend time in Goa, India as well.

Our homes are created from love, hard work, and a passion of collecting and making. We search the world for items we love. As much as possible, we try to use recycled building materials, and upcycle furniture. Our houses aren't fussy or pretentious, but they are all about charming you, making you feel great, and most importantly about love and celebrating the creative spirit! Stop searching - you have found the perfect holiday homes! Houses that create wonderful memories, inspire the senses, and most of all, feel like a home away from home.

Pablo in the Philippines, 2015

Pablo Wild is eight years old. He has traveled a lot in his young life. As part of his schooling this year, he will be writing a journal to share and remember his travels. From China, to Morocco, to Europe, to India, its been an incredible childhood. Check out his blog.

Pablo says his favorite country is India. He loves apples. And he love his little brother hugo, even though sometimes he annoys him. He also loves minecraft. He loves swimming on the beach and surfing, he likes karate, and he loves his friends and all of his family. He wishes there was no pollution, no wars,no guns and no shoes.

Pablo hanging out in Goa, India 2014

This year, we will also be writing our own blog about traveling with a family. We have never let parenthood stop our quest to explore the world.

Its not a traditional life we are living, and some might say our lifestyle is brave with such a young family, but as hard as it can be, it feels like each day something new is learned, and discovered. We are always greeted with such warmth and smiles. The kids have got used to having their daily sleeps around chaos, on trains, tricycles, ferries, planes. Its made them calm little confident beings, and Pablo is developing such curious nature about the world. Its been brilliant for them, and for us a parents. I hope our kids see the world as their home, and that there are many different ways to live a life. It definitely a challenge taking your kids out of the normal life, but for us, its been an incredible adventure. Our blog documents the adventures and challenges of our 2016 journey.

“Artist’s Nook is a fantastic boho chic address just around the corner from the pristine beach, and a short stroll into town. The vibe is tropical boho paradise, with a full working kitchen, wonderful indoor and outdoor dining (bbq included), and very funky indoor and outdoor lounge rooms with art on every wall. The bedrooms and bathrooms have tropical garden outlooks, and the house catches gentle cross breezes aided by the softly swirling ceiling fans. Tina was very helpful and prompt: I highly recommend Artist’s Nook to anyone - we will definitely be using it as our Port Douglas place to stay! Thanks Michael! The artists nook is your perfect two bedroom retreat in the heart of Port Douglas #artistsnook #portdouglas #airbnb #perfectholidayrental #bohochic #bohoparadise #beachliving #tropicalliving #perfectholiday #bookdirect #bookdirectandsave
