Outdoor/Hiking Cathedral Ranges Grampians Arthurs Seat Olinda/Dandenong Warrandyte Wilsons Prom (also, squeaky Beach there is a great place to visit) Healsville Sanctuary Moonlit Sanctuary Food places Kariton Sorbetes - Footscray - filipino ice creams and sorbets - Out west Hardware Societe - 10 Katherine Place, Melb or 123 Hardware St, Melb - great brekky spot. Have to get in early TODCO (Oakleigh Donut Co) - South Yarra, Richmond, Oakleigh - Vegan options avail Goldilocks bar - Melb CBD - Great vegan food options Neko Neko - Collingwood - do a great vegan ramen Im sure I got more stuff but I'm drawing a blank at the moment. Sorry for the late reply to this haha.

Another great Australian programme📺, guys:A beaut! I also recognise, again, some of those Melbournian landmarks in your programme, such as the market💹 and the graffiti areas,as again I remember the Australian🇦🇺soap opera, Home And Away, filmed a few scenes in Melbourne, back in the year 2009- February or so. A character called Melody, in the soap opera at the time, slept rough on the streets🛣️🚘 with some homeless guy she met:They visited the market you went to, and they ran away from a group of guys, who were chasing them up that street🛣️ with the graffiti you mentioned. Also, some of their Melbournian aerial🚡 views included the 3 skyscrapers🌇🌆🏗️, and the river🏞️🌊- The Yarra,is that correct? However,they didn't include the cafes you saw. I also like the artwork of your thumbnail picture that came up,too!A very nice view of Melbourne. Great work, guys and sheilas.👍😀💯😄👏🙏

As a Melbournian, I love taking staycations. I generally stay in the theatre district but often go for long walks to Royal Botanical Gardens or explore the solar system from St Kilda to Station Pier. It’s been an age since I went to the art gallery and library though, so maybe I’ll do them on my next vacay.

The graffiti is one of the best things I love about Melbourne. When it first started appearing around the city around the same time it started popping up around the world, the City fought it, and spent resources cleaning it off and laying criminal charges and all the things everyone else tried. And then one day someone said "theres a whole city block full of grey, old, ugly ex mercantile buildings, how about we set some basic rules regarding indecency, and tell them if they leave everywhere else alone they can come into the city and knock themselves out free of persecution. We might even throw in some decent paint'. And everyone else said "yeah, that makes sense" and today its one of the most vibrant and captivating parts of the whole city. Its essentially an urban art gallery, and it is absolutely crazy just how talented some of these artists are. If you ever have a few hours to kill in the CBD and no money, do yourself a favour. if you look at the works instead of just running your eyes over them, you could easily spend 2 or 3 hours there and not see the same thing twice.

[@cjexplores]

That’s an amazing story, thanks for sharing Ray 😁🙏🏼❤️

The prices are insane! Is everything this expensive in Melbourne/ Australia?

[@cjexplores]

Probably not! We picked out a few specific vegan cafes and restaurants and paid for the convenience. I’m sure that if you looked a little harder you could find the local “go-to’s” that we clearly missed!! In general however, something we have noticed in Australia, UK and Europe is that the prices for EVERYTHING are going up. Have you noticed the same where you are?

[@andreagriffiths3512]

$20 for a meal and a drink isn’t bad. I’d pay up to $30-40, depending on the place. If you want a quick sandwich 7eleven is pretty good. If you want more choice, Subway. But honestly, pretty much everywhere will do a toastie of some description. If you’re near the museum, The Garden View cafe is good. They have some great food for a good price.

[@cjexplores]

@@andreagriffiths3512 thanks a lot for the insight Andrea 🙏🏼❤️

[@cboy0394]

Thought so too. I’m from LA and maybe i’m complaining too much since overall it’s more expensive here especially since we have to pay an extra 9-12 % sales tax(depending on the specific jurisdiction within LA) on top of the price plus an extra 15-20% tip but comparing Melbourne to many cities in Europe, it seems like Melbourne is pretty pricy. Is Melbourne pricier than Sydney?

I thought they were insane too and then I remembered I pay similar pricing in Canada for independent coffee shops and restaurants.
