My term break started great! After I had my friend from Brisbane over, I flew to Melbourne for 4 days to stay with some family friends.

This friend actually did a gap year, too in Hamburg for 2 months and this is how I met her. They stay in a beautiful house in St Kilda and their family consists out of a Mum, dad, two daughters Emily (my friend) and Amy and their cute god Archie. Their mum is originally German but she moved to Australia many years ago, so that she can speak german fluently and Emily and her dad can speak pretty good too.

Melbourne is a beautiful place to live and therefore visit. We decided to walk a lot around town and just find these amazing alleys with graffiti and other street art work on there. It was really amazing and just breathtaking pieces of art.

I was lucky enough to have good weather for some days when I was there so that we could go to the beach and just have a walk around their pretty neighborhood.

One day we decided that we should go into a museum that had over 200 different artist’s works displayed and it was truly amazing! They had all kinds of different rooms, some simple ones with just lights, about 100 different chair ideas, painting and drawings but there were also more complex ones like the flower room full of flowers and a room that had the art work displayed when you were lying down.

After that we went to a popular rooftop bar and had some delicious (non-alcoholic) cocktails and just enjoyed the evening!

Sadly my days in Melbourne were over way too fast and I had to catch a plane back to Noosa 🙁
