A small shout-out to the suburb where I grew up. Glen Waverley is home to Victoria’s Police Academy, where cadets undoubtedly partake in the same 80s-style hijinks as seen in the movies.
Free lectures held in a cosy bars around Melbourne's inner north. This wonderful organisation runs weekly courses on a range of topics, purely for the pursuit of knowledge. The perfect antidote for a post-grad like myself who often misses lectures and class discussions. Uni with a glass of red wine - yes please.
Located in the central district of Melbourne, Curtain house is home to some of Melbourne's cool bars and boutique store's. Including Cookie, Rooftop Cinema & Bar, Metropolis book store. Collectors Corner and Perks and Mini's Flagship store, Someday.
La Paloma is my local, my regular stop for coffee and tortilla. The atmosphere is unpretentious and the handwritten menu is simple, fresh and delicious, featuring Argentinian empanadas, shakshuka, beans and churros.
Located on the Corner of New and York street, Richmond. New York Tomato makes one of the best breakfasts in town. An old semi warehouse which has been converted into a cafe.
