these were the words my sister and i decided to act on about a month ago...
so we flew to Melbourne
traditionally, Sydners are supposed to compete with the ever so ultra-cool Melbournites; it's just how it's always been.
yet after the epic four days there (YES! that's all it took!) i stand a convert. it's amazing. and i know i overuse that word way too much, but there's no denying it...(and believe me, i've tried).
walking down the street is a cultural experience. having a chai latte is an undeniable infusion of all things spicey and nicey. book shops are owned and run by, in the words of Eric Zoolander, 'ridiculously good-looking' people that are too cool to even think 'being cool' is cool.
it's just the nature of things below the border that makes me want to stop and say, "hey, let's move to Melbourne soon."
