    Most Aussies live in the suburbs, not the city centre or immediate surrounds. Did you look in established residential inner suburbs with more character, more amenities and more trees? Most have low-rise flats, good public transport and a sense of community that you won't find in the city centre. Examples: Elwood, Glenhuntly, Murrumbeena, Hawthorn, Camberwell, Kew, Alphington etc.

      Totally understand this! However for now we really want to be closer to the city as this point in our lives - just left suburbia in the UK so not quite wanting that atm. I can definitely see the benefits for the future though - thanks for the recommendations 🤩

      @@Katielharwood most of those examples would fit into what we would classify as as “inner suburbs” which means progressive city type areas that just happen to be outside the city. Elwood in particular as it a beachside suburb right next to st kilda which is a massive tourist destination. Actual suburbia would be further out than these. Basically theyre suburbs families who would like to be as close to the city as possible but still maintain a sense of community live. Which makes them nicer for couples and singles too.

      @Katielharwood yeah absolutely! feels like where I'm from isn't special enough to be talked about online, and then it's just there. since you're in the area, definitely check out the south melb market for produce and food! and if you like coffee then code black right next to the market is probably the best in the area (though my favourite cafe is still calere up north in Collingwood)

    • @Uncreeperble
      @Uncreeperble 9 дней назад

      @Katielharwood 100% I agree DISTRACTED driving is very dangerous- when people DONT have control of their vehicles. I think it's not inherently wrong to record while driving (heck dashcams do it)- but instead to ensure you are also maintaining control of your vehicle and being aware of your surroundings. Especially early in the morning on country roads where the roads are flat and you can see for miles ahead.

    Stuffing the bag full is already doing half the job. You are pushing the air out while you pack it... so there isn't much that needs to come out. I mostly use bags like this for blankets and jackets, as those have tons of air in them. For a trip, rolling things up and packing smart is all you really need to do unless it is a long trip. For a week or two I wouldn't bother trying this.
