Melbourne Australie

A question often comes up for future game-goers: Which city to choose? I only know 3 major Australian cities, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.

By cons I do not recommend it in winter if you want a little heat  😉 . Convenience Where to stay? I just wrote…

Tennis fan and of the great Roger Federer, I could not miss the Australian Open! I finally stayed 1 month in Melbourne unsuccessfully trying to find a job, before relocating to the bush.

Stop at Canberra – ACT

8 September 2019
parliament Canberra

After my little getaway at Jervis bay,I spent a few days in Canberra before heading to Melbourne. I took the Greyhound bus from Sydney to the capital! Accomodation and transport Canberra is more a city for workers and students. There is only a little tourism but for me it was still important to visit the capital of this beautiful country. The accomodation offer is therefore quite reduced, I took a bed in the hostel YHA (it’s rather the top of…

After my short stay in Sydney I wanted to bask in the sun on the beautiful beaches of Jervis Bay!

Jervis Bay is about 2.5 hours from Sydney, I opted for the toll-free GPS option. I don’t know exactly if there are tolls on this…
