One spot in Melbourne that I think often gets overlooked by visitors is its amazing Shrine of Remembrance, which is located on St Kilda roads in the precinct of the Botanical Gardens. It sees its fair share of visitors without being massively busy, I visited it a few weeks back and frankly was surprised by …

Last week I wrote about the Chapel Street Precinct, not too far from the CBD in Melbourne. Then last week after that post I caught up with an old friend in St Kilda’s Acland street, another vibrant area of Melbourne.

Hi all. Today just a short little ‘peep’ into a part of Melbourne, into the area of Chapel street, which stretches from the suburb of Windsor to Prahran and South Yarra. It’s a popular strip stretching from the Princes Highway to South Yarra, and you’ll see it change bit by bit as it goes from …

Well not so much because it has all the Harry Potter books, and actually I don’t …

Howdy all and I hope this post finds you well! Last week I took the chance to attend the Royal Melbourne Show. The Royal Melbourne Show is a big event that happens every September-October in Melbourne at the Royal Showgrounds, Flemington. If you’re in Melbourne at that time of the year, it’s not a bad …
Howdy all! Today’s post is a little bit of a life update in a way I guess. The weekend just finished I’ve been out and about a bit, some in the line of duty for work, some for my other hobby, making my fan fiction, and then there was Saturday night out with my wife …
