Vue Bar Bondi

at Hyatt on the Bund rooftop bar and even had a Jacuzzi that you can enjoy while you drink. (obviously expensive though). Also, if you are feeling risk-ay then you should try the Kangroo here. I swore I would never try it but a friend and I caved it and tried it when we were here and it tasted great and they prepared it really well

Bondi Beach

Love this beach!!! Can’t name one bad thing about it. There are so many places to eat and shop around it. The iceberg pol is here and you can do the scenic walk to broute beach as well! It wa so cool to finally see this place for my own eyes and I would live in bondi if I could

Bronte Beach

You MUST do the scenic walk from bondi to get here!! It’s such a nice walk and they also have another iconic pool in this area (not as iconic as the iceberg but still really beautiful). There are a lot less shops and eateries over here but it also feels a lot more secluded and private than bondi

Wongarra, VIC

destination

Great Ocean Road

You must go here!! I went here as a day trip from Melbourne and I loved it. Fair warning it will be quite the long day there and back but you can see so many classic Aussie wild animals up close and the 12 apostles are there which are very iconic and always won’t be there forever as the water erodes them away. I hired a tour company (went through a hostel instead of the HUGE tour companies because it was way cheaper for the same tour and all people my age instead)

Banana Blossom

My local Aussie friend told me to try this place and it was incredible!!! It’s like healthy noodle or salad bowls and it’s honestly just so different from most food places I’ve been too that I kept going back for more and trying new things. You can customize your own dishes and it’s just really fun and always such good food

Bondi Icebergs POOL

You have to rent a day pass to go down to the pool at least once while you are here!! I stayed in bondi so I spent. A lot of my mornings here and it’s the local workout spot in the morning. This is the iconic spot I think of when I think bondi and they also have great espresso martinis

Fishbowl - Bondi Beach

Really fresh poke bowls!! Locals love this place so I knew it had to be a good one. If you love fish then you gotta try this place. I bought my bowl and walked over to the beach to eat it!

Alexandria, NSW

cafe

The Grounds of Alexandria

This place is to die for and so trendy! Make sure to bring cash for the food stands and you NEED to try the lemonade if it is there when you go. This place is in a former pie factory so the brick walls an organic garden make the atmosphere so inviting. They also have events here where you can do yoga in the gardens, paint night, etc. This is the type of place that you can go to multiple times but have a different unique experience each time and never get sick of it

Circular Quay

It’s by the opera house and it’s where you can use your opal card to take ferry’s to a lot of the places you’re going to want to check out while you are there (I.e. the taronga zoo, manly, etc). I know some people get motion sickness, so if you are one of those people then this may not be for you. But if you still want to try it out anyway then they sell really good ginger chews in supermarkets near by that we’re made specify for motion sickness so you can still have a good time! Personally I think it’s a much more fun type of transportation than Uber or the metro

Speedo's Cafe

Amazing breakfast place!! I went here three times and all the food I had was fantastic. Locals love this place and it has a great view. It is a pretty crowded joint so just note you will be sitting close to other tables haha but highly recommend the visit

San Churro

My guility pleasure haha. These ice cream filled churros were to die for and the location itself overlooks bondi beach so you get the best of both worlds.
