As a Melburnian, we can sometimes be a miserable lot and bitch and moan about the state of our city. The roads are bad, the weather is shite, the cost of living is too high…whatever. But having people from outside get excited about Melbourne puts it all in perspective. It is one damn cool, eclectic and beautiful city. Have travelled around Australia many times and I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else! Thank you.

Thank you for describing the city I live in a loving way. I always remember a quote about Melbourne and Sydney, "Sydney is the film and Melbourne is the book". Which I feel describes the two cities well.

As an old Aussie, my greatest joy has been, late in the afternoon with nobody around to sit by the Murray River and hear nothing except for birds or fish jumping. It's magical.

[melbournegirl]

Thank you for showcasing our beautiful city so wonderfully.

I remember as a child dad taking us to the Vic Market in the 1960s to buy a big box of fruit and veggies. Then he brought us all one of those donuts.
My Nan lived in suburb next to the city, Carlton, so sleeping over at Nans on weekends and nan taking me into the city was so exciting as a child.
As a teenager I remember often just sitting and reading in the botanical gardens.
I worked in the city for quite a few years. Now my daughter and husband have moved to live in the city in an apartment. Finally their 1st own home as he’s just retired from the army. Now she jogs around the parks and tracks before work.
Watching both of you in the city - virtually covered over 60 happy years of my life, connected to the City of Melbourne 💞

So good to see and hear overseas visitors appreciating the City that I have grown up in and loved for over 60 years.

[jarrahgreensill]

[luhole]

It's so strange to hear people with American accents pronounce Melbourne correctly.

[carolespinoza]

Ahh so glad you love Melbourne (home town) 🫶🏻 We are definitely hot coffee peeps 😂 the food, art, music and theatre scene are our vibe here. But obvs lots of sport etc. and loads of gorgeous towns to visit for weekends down the coast. Hoping you loved the Great Ocean Rd trip. Anyway thanks for another awesome vid. We love you guys ❤❤

I've been living in Melbourne for a few years now and I'm always finding new cool areas to explore. Best place I've ever lived in. Glad your having a great time :)

A couple of things, the NGV ( National Gallery of Victoria) is not the museum, that’s the Melbourne Museum which is next door to the Royal Exhibition Building. Secondly the Sydney Melbourne rivalry dates back to the early 1900 when our original government was trying to work out which city should be the capital. It was decided that Melbourne should hold the Federal Parliament and Sydney would hold the Stock Exchange. In the end it got so messy they created Canberra- which is in the middle of the 2 cities. Move onto the 2020’s and Melbourne is now the biggest city in Australia. Sydney used to hold this title…. So the grumbling will continue. I heard the other day a great description Melbourne is the book and Sydney is the film, I think that says it all.

You’ve really nailed your Melbourne experience. What is even more amazing is that all the places you went you are places we interact with regularly. We often have picnics or light display at the botanic gardens, or ‘the tan’ as we call it, and regularly meet up with friends for a walk or jog around the perimeter. The art gallery has many reasons for us to visit. The State Library is simply inspirational to study in, they have art installations, or sometimes a special party.

Chefs kiss of a video guys! Pretty rare to see people actually go to the top spots all one after the other: Fitzroy - NGV❤ - Botanical Gardens - War memorial (underrated inside) - Queen Vic (south Melbourne market better but you went straight for the donuts, so well played) - state library ❤ - and the other places could have been anywhere after that. Perfect 1-2 days in Melb right there.

This is arguably one of the best Melbourne vlogs I've watched! Glad you enjoyed it here!!

[Jaydee]

So nice to see my hometown through someone else’s eyes…and for them to love it too!
Also nice to hear you both pronounce Melbourne properly! 😊

[luborrelli]

I grew up in Melbourne. I am pleased about your exploration of Melbourne, many other bloggers seem to miss the point. We are not all the sunclad, beach obssessed people you find North of the border.

[matthkgts]

thank you !
as a guy who was born and lived in Melbourne all my life, i fully appreciate your love for our city ❤😊

[karenglenn]

My lovely hometown, Melbourne. The art, sport and coffee capital of the world. I just hate the traffic and moved to beautiful central Victoria. Still love my Melbourne ❤️ oh those doughnuts at the VIC Market, I used to work at the old Police HQ in William St and we would go and get those for lunch and eat a whole bag. Heavenly!!
