Carlton Gardens

The Carlton Gardens - UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Carlton.

Forza Italia

There is a place in Melbourne that reminds us of Italy.
It is the vibrant Lygon St, with the coffee shops, restaurants & gelaterie, in one word - Carlton.

Next time you'll go there, enjoy a pizza, I think it is the best you can get in Melbourne :)

Riding the bicycle in Melbourne

Few months back I started to ride the bicycle every morning, but a month back I decided to take the next step and started riding the bicycle to work. :)
I must admit I became addicted :) I really enjoy riding in the morning because I don't have to get on the crowded train, after waiting for it.
Since doing this I discover a new world in Melbourne - there are a lot of people riding the bicycle to work, or running or even walking to work - and I'm not taking here about a 5 minutes walk. I discovered an almost full bicycle parking at work (but hey, I have my own parking space in Melbourne's CBD) and lots of people enjoying a healthy life.

Gardiners Creek Trail, a different world to discover in Melbourne

(you'll not believe what beauties are hiding behind the freeway walls)

Floating section of Main Yarra Trail / somewhere in Richmond

Going from South-East to CBD you go on Gardiners Creek Trail, Main Yarra Trail and Capital City Trail .. tens of km of nice views and fresh air...
You have to be careful in Southbank, people are usually walking in one direction and looking in other direction (or more often looking at their phone ...)

Try it and you'll enjoy it.
Btw, I'm used to the rain, but I really hate the wind!!!

Getting out of winter

Long time no writing.. not the first time it is happening, but as always, hope this time I'll start to write more often..
Everything goes well.. I cannot believe that its almost 2 years we've been in Australia ... but this is not the topic as I plan to come back and write about it at the end of September.
