Hi guys! So as you know I'm in Victoria this week, and so far it's been absolutely fabulous! For the people that don't know, Victoria is a state here in Australia. So I arrived here on Sunday and for the past few days my mum and I have been staying with a friend (Karen) that lives in a place called Bendigo. We were there to celebrate her 50th birthday. The past few days have been full of celebration, including multiple dinners with friends and family and lots of presents. Bendigo is such a lovely place, it's full of beautiful old, vintage buildings and lovely parks with tones of colourful tulips. So today my mum and I have said good-bye to Karen and her son Ziggy and caught the country train from Bendigo to Melbourne CBD. As soon as we got here we were overwhelmed by the rush of things in the city. We then checked into our backpackers hostel (which to add is surprisingly tasteful and clean?!?). Anyway, at around 6pm we went out to explore a little and pick up some dinner. It became evident quite quickly that the people of Melbourne held much more style and life compared to Brisbane. It was also quite strange to see that Melbourne city was way busier on a Wednesday night than Brisbane city is on a Friday or Saturday night. So, after exploring we picked up some Indian curry and took it up to our room to enjoy whilst watching a long awaited episode of Big Brother. The next few days we intend to shop (till we drop, lol) and explore the city in greater depth. I am making a video of my time here, so if everything goes to plan, it will be up in a week or so. But for now I will leave you with an assortment of photographs taken over the past few days!
Looking forward to posting again soon!
