ADELAIDE - Australia’s most underrated city? (vlog 1)

Adelaide is generally not the first choice when you consider traveling to Australia. Most foreigners don't even know what to expect here. So is it worth it? In this and my next 2 videos, I'll show you why it is.

In this vlog, you'll discover what makes this city unique as we walk along the Central Business District.

► WHO AM I?

I am a Brazilian-American journalist living in Florida. After traveling the world working with sports, news, and events for over 15 years, I realized that what I really love is the travel part of it all. So I exchanged life in the newsrooms and stadiums for the daily challenge of being an independent content producer. I created this channel to share the beauties of the world... stuff that, for so long, I only kept to myself. Also to help people planning similar trips and to inspire more people to venture out and enjoy life!

P.S.: The funny guy who appears in the vlogs is my husband, Gordon. He is Canadian-American, and he's actually camera-shy. That's why he's behind the camera most of the time 😉

I’m a local and proud to see this video. One of the statues you showed was a woman called Mary Lee (the one in the bonnet). South Australia was the second place in the world to give women the right to vote (New Zealand was the first) and she was a part of that movement.

Adelaide looks peaceful and clean for people looking for a relaxing life. The weather looked good too. And you deserved that random pink rose!

I'm glad you enjoyed Adelaide. I moved here from Sydney over 30 years ago and although I still call Sydney home I love Adelaide. There is so much to do and see without having to travel great distances. From the centre of Adelaide 45min drive north you are in Australia's biggest and best wine districts. To the east 25 minutes drive your at the beach. And to the east into the hills you have so many sights and tourist towns to visit. Adelaide has it all.

I'm from Adelaide. Thank you for this great video you did an excellent job in showcasing the city centre.

[babaganoosh]

I've lived in Adelaide all my life and every time i travel to amazing places in their own right I'm reminded how great my home town is. I even learned a couple of things from your video so thanks for that 😊

[t.r.kester.australian.auth]

I am an Adelaide local and thoroughly loved your video, it's both fascinating and wonderful seeing through the eyes of tourist. So glad you enjoyed our wonderful city. Please come back and visit :)

My great great grandfather came to South Australia as a free settler in 1836 and he part owned the ship The Africaine. As a librarian I’m happy you visited the beautiful State Library 📚

[TheoHockeyton]

Obrigado Renata. I'm planning to travel to Adelaide next month and your video has been very helpful. You also have the most wonderful personality !

[ClawAnimates]

Im from Adelaide and I got to participate In a Theatre Festival, it’d normally be in Newcastle NSW but because of Covid in 2021, we stayed in Adelaide and recorded our piece in Victoria square!

[Stevenator]

I live in Adelaide and everywhere you go is deja vu. We don’t expect much to do in Adelaide except when we go to rural areas for outdoor activities. Most of the time, we like to hang out with friends occasionally and other days we like to be alone and chill at home

[AmbientWalking]

Always such a pleasure to go on a trip with you. Every experience is always different and I am always happy after the journey. : )

[TBoneSan]

My hometown, you made me miss it more! Great showcase, if you have time next visit checkout the Central Market in the city, Beaches and Wineries.

[davidcole]

I hear a lot of good things about Adelaide. I think it's definitely worth a visit.

[michaeljk]

Adelaide Central Market is worth a visit, it`s in the city. Also you can take the tram from the city to Glenelg, a beach side suburb of Adelaide. 👍😊

[adamfitzgerald]

Great to see you visited and loved our home city Adelaide, South Australia. We are told that the reason the street names change at King William Street in the middle of the city is because 'you can't cross the King.'

[gailebsworth]

Loved this, I lived here for many years and now I remember why I missed it.

[janiceesprey]

Great video, proud to live in Adelaide.

[PS_Travels]

Adelaide looks great, especially all of the parks around the centre. Feels like a very liveable city and great that it also has a free tramway like Melbourne. Very informative video, thank you!

[Australian_Citizenship_Class]

Really interesting and informative. I've lived in Adelaide for 16 years and still learned new things from your video! Thanks for sharing 😊
