👋 Who are we?
Hi there, we're Tom and Angel!
An adventurous couple from Canada who’ve always had a love for travel and the outdoors. So far, we’ve have travelled to 35 countries together!
Since moving from our hometown of Toronto to the beautiful west coast of British Columbia, we’ve been able to experience more of the outdoors than we ever have before. In October 2022, we decided to take the leap. We got on a one-way flight and started slow travelling full time while working our remote jobs.
Join us in our adventures as we live in different countries, seek authentic experiences, try new foods, and learn everything we can about this beautiful world we live in!

Welcome to 'Marvellous (yes, Aussies spell it with two LLs ) Melbourne (which we lazily and roughly pronounce 'Melbn') situated on the Yarra (here we go again,
Y as in yellow -A as in apple- A at the end changes to U as in up ( which we do so with so many words). I was born in, live in and LOVE this beautiful and buzzy city full of many things to do and see. I'm thoroughly enjoying your professional-like video. Well done ! That last building, the Melbourne Exhibition Centre was where our first Australian Parliament sat and where Australia federated into a nation of states in 1901 and later, two extra territories. The Federal Parliament is now situated in Canberra, in the Australian Capital Territory. You'll come across many aboriginal/first nations words like Yarra, Canberra, damper (damp-u) in our vernacular and much slang as well and swearing ! Melbourne has over 200 ethnicities living here. Aussies( pronounced, 'Ozzies') are a friendly, happy, casual, approachable people so look-out to make friends/ 'mates'. I'm looking forward to your next video.
PS If you want to get a really good gander/look at the city and Port Phillip Bay which it wraps around, do a few' blockies'/ circuits on the Westgate Bridge which is toll free. Get on, go to the end, get off at the end exit, loop under the bridge and get on the entrance to the other side (lanes) of the bridge. Repeat. Choose a sunny day for great views. Also the Eureka Tower Skydeck is a MUST for high and long distance, wonderful panoramic 360 degree views also on a sunny day. Enjoy !

You were very brave to try the croc and emu. I’m Aussie and have never tried them. You haven’t convinced me that I should!

It's a jam donut.

The first jam doughnut was invented in Germany in the late 15th century, and by the 1800s it was commonly called a Berliner–the jam doughnut is still called this in Germany today. The first ring doughnut, though, was invented by an American sailor called Hanson Gregory in 1847.

Adelaide own dessert is better it's called the kitchner bun The Kitchener bun is a type of sweet pastry made and sold in South Australia since 1915.[1] It consists of a bun sometimes baked, [citation needed] sometimes fried, made from a sweet yeasted dough similar to that used for making doughnuts, split and then filled with raspberry or strawberry jam and cream, most often with a dusting of sugar on the top.
