Fun things to do in Docklands
I left Canberra four years ago to relocate to Melbourne and since moving to Docklands a lot has changed in the area – especially the option of having more fun things to do. However, despite those changes, I’m still being asked by a lot of Melbournians what do I do for fun in Docklands? So, I […]

A unique experience in Melbourne CBD
I’m always open to exploring what new things the city has to offer. Most of my friends live in the suburbs, so if I’m going to invite them to come into the city, it better be for a good reason. Escape Hunt invited a group of us to experience an evening of fun with them. They gave us the […]
A Ladies Charity Lunch Event in Melbourne
I attended a special charity lunch event organised by Sarah (aka Little Miss Melbourne) to support and raise funds for WIRE.

Melbourne 4-day stay – Crown Metropol and ACMI
Having a small holiday every now and then is ever so good for the soul and recently my partner and I stayed at Crown Metropol hotel in Melbourne. Now even though we only live in the suburbs of Melbourne both of us had never actually stayed in our own city, and I must say it was the […]
