Melbourne is going great! So amazing in fact that it has been voted the world’s most liveable city according to the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Liveability Survey! OH YEAH. Spring has finally sprung, the sun is splitting the stones and the coffee drinkers are hitting the outdoor cafes!
With the Great Ocean Road and Phillip Island only a stones throw away, vineyards an hour up the road and a wealth of unique bars and shops Melbourne truly is the place to be. If it’s sport you’re into the AFL is in full swing with Grand Final day approaching as one of the cities most celebrated annual sporting events. The people are friendly, the transport efficient, the crime rate is low, jobs aplenty and the parties are EPIC….stop me now, I could go on for hours!
St Kilda is coming to life again after its winter hibernation, hurrah we say! Head to Acland St for a taste of all things sweet, hit the beach for a spot of city sunning and then head to Elephant and Wheelbarrow on Mondays nights for the infamous Neighbours Night! Doctor Karl will certainly help you get your fix of fun! Base St Kilda is always a winner on a Wednesday with an awesome bar and free BBQ it’s a great place to dance the night away.
