What's it like..

This place is green with a very temperamental weather. Wineries are less than an hour away; making it the perfect place to spend a sunday afternoon; farmer's market, wine tasting and lunch later at a busy(or cosy as preferre) winery cafe. The Dandenong ranges has amazing forest views and many tracks for walking or hiking. Gums trees, exotic birds, ferns are a common sight, smell of the aromatic eucalyptus leafs.. simply relaxing. Party in a house located in an industrial area, home to 12 artists. Small and big art galleries scattered all around the city. Here is afterall the art capital of Aust. Lanes of lanes become homes to some of the nicest bars, often needing to walk pass rows of garbage bins into nice interior designs. Runs in the many parks or by the beach slowly becoming a ritual. Crawling trams will get you across suburbs. Not at all bold, this place is a place of hidden pleasures..

I can only hope that this picture is able to persuade you more to fly across the Pacific Ocean or the South Pac. Ocean to come here! You know who you ppl are.. waiting for you to come and crash in my place.

Also, this is my other preferred pic. becuase having a person in the shot shows a good perspective of how big the Gorge is.

more pics....

So last christmas and new year's was spend sightseeing Australia. This is probably the best shot of the very scenic ocean drive we took of the infamous Great Ocean Rd of Victoria. Looking back at the pictures, I realized that I tend to appreciate things more from memories then the moment itself.

Locked out again..

Except that I was in a skirt and heels. It's sometimes beneficial to be small and flexible! Was either through the tiny window or pay for the locksmith to come. Urg.. what a way to start the week.

Had a knee ache yesterday while running :( barely finishing 2 miles. A weak knee coupled with a weak shoulder and weak ankles, I'll be sitting in a wheel chair well before 50.

These plants are special, can't believe they are still alive. Somethings do last longer than expected. Miss you! Cheers to a happier year!
