I am jealous of the Melbournites :) it’s my favourite city in Aus, I am moving there when I get back from overseas next January.
-

-
Off to Europe – backpacking and some study in Denmark :) I am really looking forward to life in Melbourne town though, I’ve wanted to live there for aaaages.
-

Melbournestraddlers! Hooray!
-
Oh, that sounds awesome! Where are you doing your exchange? Hope you’re having an amazing time :)

Hey! I’m from melbourne too. I know it’s been ages but I’m excited about the existence of y’all.
