I flew from London to Melbourne in Australia (with a stop in dubai) and was only in Melbourne for around 3 days and i was jet lagged for most of it but i think i managed to see most of the city. It was especially nice to see what Christmas is like in Australia. I would have liked to explore further afield but there is also next time. I am starting my journey in Australia in Melbourne before flying to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Hamilton island and then ending up in Sydney. Please subscribe to watch the rest of my travels :)

Your video about Melbourne was very informative for a tourist. Well done ! I live in Melbourne and I love it. My parents emigrated to Australia in the 1950 from the UK and all of their children are so glad that they did, are thankful and feel blessed. Australia is a wonderful country to live in.

@amelia.explores 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much! I'm heading back there soon, this time to the west coast so hopefully I'll get some more great footage.

Thank you so much for your video. Tourism and migration are so important to Australia as most Australians work in service related industries. Australians are also great travellers and work hard to improve the experience of being in Australia. Please come back and also keep promoting all the great places that you travel.

@amelia.explores 4 месяца назад

Thanks :) I'm returning to Australia in a few weeks, this time the east coast. I'm excited to see some of the more remote areas!

Glad you enjoyed Melbourne. Best city in Australia (and I've lived in a few!) Stalactites is a part of the old Greek quarter in the CBD. It's an institution, but definitely not flash 😅 Plenty of other much nicer places to try. Next time, try the Yarra Valley wineries instead of Puffing Billy, and venture outside the CBD to an inner suburban shopping & cafè strip like Brunswick Street 😊 The Twelve Apostles are a fair drive from Melbourne; best to stay overnight at a seaside town like Torquay or Apollo Bay.

Melbourne is awesome but finding all the best food and best places to visit takes time depending what you're into. Exploring Melbourne is a major part of the fun though. Exploring Victoria is fun too.

@davidlang1125 5 месяцев назад

I watched this because I’m thinking about returning to Australia after living in California for a few decades. Not sure where I want to be - Sydney where I grew up or Melbourne where it’s less glitzy and a more relaxed pace of life. Liked your honest opinion about things. Amazed you did so much despite jet lag.

@amelia.explores 5 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed the video. I also went to brisbane (there's another video) personally I liked that more than both melbourne and Sydney but everyone's taste is different.

I live in Melbourne and agree Stalignites the restaurant is overrated. Also puffing billy tourist trap. Fitzroy and Brunswick and Stkilda are cool places

@amelia.explores 3 месяца назад

It was a little overrated I'm not sure it justified the queue out the door. I didn't get to see St kilda but I wish u had done.

@gregoryjohn4 4 месяца назад

Why does everyone seem to want to go to the Gold Coast? It's a beach and theme parks with tall buildings. There are so many other interesting places.

@amelia.explores 4 месяца назад

I think its because its talked about so much. I'm actually heading to WA soon so will see what that's like.

@FionaEm 4 месяца назад

@@amelia.exploresYep, the Gold Coast is overrated (I can say that because I'm from Queensland originally!) Plenty of nicer, more relaxed beachside areas in NSW and Qld to explore.

@petethundabox5067 4 месяца назад

Nice CD collection. Shame you didn't have time to make it to any of the 100's of rock n roll venues we have. Maybe next time. Melbourne is considered by many international artists as the music capital of the world.

@amelia.explores 4 месяца назад

Really? Do recommend some places please!

@petethundabox5067 4 месяца назад

@@amelia.exploresGod. There's so many. I have 30-40 within 20 min walk from my house. Some of the ones around the city I go to are: Esplanade Hotel, Tote Hotel, Stay Gold, Retreat Hotel, Northcote Social Club, Croxton Bandroom, HiFi Bar, Cherry Bar, Gem Hotel, Bendigo Bar, Lulie St Tavern, Last Chance Rock n Roll Bar, Memo Music Hall, Old Bar, Bar Open, Evelyn Hotel, St Kilda Bowling Club, but that's just the tip. Obviously there are bigger places that international bands will play at too like KISS (or Taylor Swift) at the MCG/Melbourne Cricket Ground that seats 100,000 or like QATSA @the outdoor SydneyMyerMusicBowl, but little venues like The Gem Hotel (free) will have surprise acts like J.Mascous (Dinosaur Junior) solo... Plus there's heaps of micro breweries that have bands like Bonneyrig Brew House. So, so many. We're spoilt for choice. Maybe look at a 12 month work visa for next time so you can see the less touristy stuff.. 🎶🎸🍻 keep on rockin 🎧🎵🔅

Puffing Billy: traditionally it was for locals to go and have a picnic - thats why you are there for 2 hours
