Australia Exploring #1!

Today was my first proper day of exploring in Melbourne because, although I attempted exploring yesterday, I'm not gonna lie, it was a massive failure - I couldn't even figure out how to get to the beach and it just made me really depressed for the day. So today my friend (who is currently living in Australia) took charge and at points she wasn't much better than me but she still managed to get us to Hosier Lane, which is somewhere I have been so excited about seeing!


It had all of this incredible street art, all different varieties of it in every, shape, size, form, colour and detail. I was in awe.


Some of it I couldn't even believe people could create in the first place, never mind put so much time and effort into.


One of the things I love about it is that the artists put all of that effort into it and so many people pass through it every day and appreciate the amount of heart and soul that has gone into it even though the creator knows it's only temporary. They do it even knowing that someday, in the near or far future, someone else is going to come and put their mark on Hosier Lane and paint their own incredible story over it. 


If you ever visit Melbourne, this is the one piece of culture, an undiscovered, one-of-a-kind type of culture, that you need to come and see.



Come to the other side of the world and they can
still read my mind.
