A vous de voir … on organise un resto FrOz !!!

Hey mate, this is just a nice forum, here we don’t make miracles …..
The best way is to help yourself by going through the forum themes or carnets de voyage and see what could match your projects

BG,

first of all, thanks for your comment on my « carnet de voyage », it’s nice to see that some guys appreciate my photos and textes !!

Now, without a shadow of doubt, the best and closest spot of Melbourne is Torquay, just past Geelong at ~ 1h15mins from the city centre.

Torquay is famous for:
– Bells Beach where every year, the World Pro…En afficher davantage

G’day Fanny,

Yep, I reckon you can make it all in 3 weeks.
My advice would be something like:
– Uluru = 5-day safari to really see all the beauties around Uluru (and not only the rock itself)
– Cairns = between 3 and 4 days with 1 day out to the Reef and another 1-day trip in the rain forest
– Kangaroo Island = 2 days on the island + 1 day and 1…En afficher davantage

Not mate, you cannot unfortunately !!… The Melbourne beach shores are part of the Port Philip bay, so you don’t have any spot directly exposed to the Sea.

However, you’ve heap of great spots to practise kite surfing

Cheers,

G’day Marmotte,

Cairns is a nice and touristy city but at the same time, it’s not the best place to stay if you wanna travel across the North Queensland and discover the Reef.
I’m just back from a 1-week trip up there and personally, I stayed in Port Douglas (1-hour North of Cairns). Port Douglas is a lovely little town at the crossroad of the…En afficher davantage

G’day Mat,

Thanks for your comment, I »ve just fixed up the first post and replaced the wrong URL with the one of my « carnet de voyage ».

If you’re looking for an animated suburb quite close to the city, i would then advise:
– Carlton (North)
– Fitzroy (North)
– Footscray (North)
– South Melbourne
– St Kilda (South Est)

All those suburbs are…En afficher davantage

G’day mate,

I don’t have any good plan for you but have a look at the 2 following URL’s …. could help you to find out your way:

Good luck

Choop is right, last winter was really good actually, mild and not too much of rain … but the one before (in 2003) was pretty disgusting … a lot weter and colder.

Yep Choop, i’m now trying to write most of my post and msgs in english and using some nice and well-known Aussie slangs… but it’s weird to use them in writing as most of the time…En afficher davantage

Cecile, i’ve been living in Melbourne for 16 months !! First arrived in Sep 03 directly from Cheltenham in the UK (close to the Welsh border).

It was such a relief for me to leave the UK for Australia, as I knew already how nice the Aussies are and how open they also are compared to the Pomms (I don’t think you will be dissent from my…En afficher davantage

i’m a very curious person, so i would say that for the moment, yes, i’m satisfied and anyway, i’ve got to join a meeting, so i’ll get back once i’m done ….

I just love cross-cultural things and when it comes to people and feelings, I could talk and ask about it for hours…..

OK fair enough …. so this one is not personal but just pure curiousity .. between the 2 of you guys, do you speak in french, english or a mixing of the 2 languages ?

Has he already tried to initiate you to the vegemite, the aussie version of the marmite (in slightly better taste) ?

Yep, i know but why are you leaving the Pomms next year … that’s the question you’ve got to answer … cos i lived in the UK for 6 months in 2003 and i was so keen to quit the country for Oz … it’s like moving from dungeon to the 7th sky

The Dr is right Cecile !! We don’t really wanna know what’s going on in a relationship … you keep that private or you take the risk kicking off another battle in this forum !!!

However, if you wanna tell us why you’re leaving the Pomms for the Aussies, yes, i’m interested !!

Hold on everyone !!!

What sort of sh** are we talking about in here !!!

What’s wrong having a frenchie girl and an aussie boy together and about to be married soon !!!

Why being so rude and childish between you guys !!!

You just cannot justify everyone’s personal feelings as this is something you’ve got inside you and those feelings are simply…En afficher davantage

Go for it mates !!!!
Look, I live in Elwood (Melbourne inner suburb) and one of my best french mates are a couple of french guys, where the guys works (4-year relocation offer by his french company) whereas the girl is now looking for a job !
And as far as I know, they look and sound very happy with what they are living right now.

You have an…En afficher davantage
