Melbourne, Australia

[red_jelly]

Hey, i was just wondering if anyone has been to Australia more specificly Melbourne (the best place in Aus). What are your thoughts, what did you like, what did you dislike, how was your overall experience, how does it compare to where you're from and etc?

 

I'm just curious of all the none Melburnians on this forum. It doesnt have to be exclusive to Melb, Aus it can be any state. 

 

if you haven't been would you like to visit?

 

 

WE know our internet is crap... dont tell us again

Lol, was about to comment about the shite internet us Australians have, then I read the last line of your post lol. 

We have good weathers (way too hot for some, somehow), and not everything tries to kill you, only the snakes, sharks, spiders, mosquitoes, sting rays, RIP Steve :'(,  the sun, dingoes, birds, jellyfish and most deadly of them all, dropbears.....

Hope everyone has nice thoughts of Australia

But if you live here (melb) it will get boring because youve seen the sites so much. i live around 20 minutes from the city up north and i've liveed there for 13 years and the city and city life is always drawing me back in.

I live in ********* which is only a few k's away from the city (Melbourne) itself and it's pretty good the weather is a bit fucking random though

Melbourne is better than Perth, I will definitely give it that. Perth gets really boring really fast, that being said I like living in a quieter area so it doesn't bother me too much

Really? I thought you were in Sydney because of the uniform that's in the background of your build log clearly I was wrong

Could be worse you could live in Adelaide and that is boring as shit according to family that lived there

I suppose, you never really hear anything good about Adelaide so it must be worse.

I go there every year or two.I love going to The Local Taphouse. Great place to eat and have drinks. I've spent a while day just having drinks in the out door seating area.

I'm a country hick from a little town in WA. I go to Melbourne for work, for a week, every year and I can't stand it. Its always cold, the people are rude (not saying you all are, Just everybody I've dealt with), the city is laid out stupid. The lanes on the roads are smaller than the cars.

 

On the plus side, Its the only place I've ever been where there is always a taxi driving past.

 

Give me a small hut in the middle of nowhere with Gigabit Fibre, and a fortnightly delivery service. I'd be as happy as a fat kid on a doughnut.

 

I fly out again on Monday and I can't wait for it to be over and to be home again.

I've been to Melbourne plenty of times and personally i think that canberra is way better. fireworks allowed, bike paths everywhere, can give abbot the finger if you see him for killing the NBN and overall its just a nice place.

Yeah, Queensland represent! That's where I live. I think that Sydney's the most beautiful city in Australia, but I really like Melbourne's urban lifestyle. I went there for the Australian Open recently.
