Have had several visits to Melbourne as my daughter Lucy moved there in 1989. To her credit, she has not affected an Oz accent, although my two Oz grandchildren, Jemima and Max are not strongly, accented , but definitely Australian.Sadly, as I am now 88, no further visits will be possible, but my wonderful memories will remain with me for as long as I survive. Delighted that Lucy is coming to England, May 29th, her mother;s birthday, so I can indulge her the way and loving and generous father should. March, 2024, England.
Hey Ronald, that's really sweet. I hope you and your daughter Lucy can share many great stories together when she comes to visit. Thank you for watching my video on Melbourne and I hope you have a great weekend!
I spent a week in Melbourne during a longer trip to Australia and NZ and despite not liking big cities that much I completely fell in love with the place. Easy to navigate, everything is within walking distance (I don't think I used the inner city free tram once or public transport at all for that matter) clean, modern and great balance of cultural diversity. One of my favourite memories was visiting the botanical gardens and looking back at the skyline. Also st kilda beach is really cozy and clean. Will definitely visit again despite the 24 hour journey.
Definitely - I wasn't a big fan of cities either, but really loved to explore and find places from where to take photos in Melbourne. Glad you had a great time!
I lucky to have friends there which are more family to me than my own here in the UK. One day I'm going there ,seen Melbourne through them showing me on their phones and pics .certainly a place I would live if I could .
I moved from Melbourne to Dallas, USA and there’s not a day where I miss Melbourne. It’s a beautiful city, there’s nowhere else in the world like it and I’m so excited to come back in 2025❤️🩹
Nothing against Dallas, but yeah I'd take Melbourne over a vast majority of cities in TX. Hope its the same as you remember on your return trip to MEL!
Nice vlog! Great presentation. It was a useful vlog for a prospective traveler like me to Australia. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Greetings from Plano, Texas, United States.
Hello Planooo! Thank you so much, I wish I wouldve made it a longer video with more emphasis on the city but hopefully get another chance to come back and explore in warmer weather. You will absolutely fall in love with Australia when you go! Well worth the flight time
@@leodoeslife_ You did cover it very well. A vlog should not be longer than 10 minutes if you are describing a city otherwise people don’t have patience to watch. I clicked on your vlog since it was short.😊
Thank you for your kind words! Melbourne truly is a vibrant and invigorating city with so much to offer. It's a place where creativity thrives, and there's always something exciting happening. 🌆 And yes, the situation with the koalas is indeed concerning. It's important that we do our part to protect and preserve their natural habitat. 🐨🌿
Well done! Thanks for the video! I was looking for a video giving insight about the city in a first-person view that's not a promotional video or a plain walk/drive tour and came across your content which is just that.
@Gary Bea i jus went to Flinders/ Elizabeth St. Train station, i don't know Y but it reminded me of - New York's Brooklyn's subway Stations, Full of F!thy Rats...and Drugg!es!!!
Melbourne looks amazing and good for living. I got a question though to the people living there; have you guys ever encountered a dangerous spider or a snake?. Not to be rude but that's what I have heard....just trying to know.😅
The Yarra River is like that for good reason. The whole south side of the river used to be alluvial swamp and the plant are no longer there to filter out the silt and nutrients. So the places you like there have emerged from draining all those marshes and billabongs. I think I'd prefer things as they were...
The soil in the Yarra River was contaminated many years ago. Upstream from the City is an area that was the "Rag Trade". Cotton dying in particular where dyes and industrial waste was discharged into the river. So to fx it now requires dredging the bottom. Governments have avoided that. Further up the Yarra River is pure clear water. We have a joke that says : The Yarra runs upside down, the bottom is on the top. 🇦🇺
i spent a few weeks in Melbourne when i got attacked by a Bunch of High- school teens(aussie) in their 18s , i reported to the police &the police mailed back with a "Can't HeLp you"!! @bt when that bunch of Aussies in their 18s me for Walking_on the street as- IF i'm Ready to hurt somebody &Rob stuff, they immediately came- in& take actions!! 😅🤣😂 (that's the Melbourne i know)
Melbourne looks beautiful.What is the weather like year round?Is living in Melbourne expensive?Can you buy reasonable priced homes there? Thanking You Brian in the UK
The reason why the Yarra River is that colour is because of its got a clay base.. and if you want to see lots of art around the city then you should go to the city of churches, Adelaide, South Australia. I hope you got to see the MCG Museum in Melbourne.
I did my undergraduate studies there. The climate, flora, fauna is one thing, but it is the people that makes up a country. They proved to me why their ancestors were outcast from Britain. The British in those days were justified.
一人做事一人当 In legal systems, you cannot lie about your crime (perjury), you cannot habour a criminal (habouring), you cannot help a criminal to commit a crime (accomplice), you cannot help to hide information-assistance before-after a crime (accessory), ... you cannot stand-in for the offence or crime. You cannot give the excuse that you own a child (slavery, seperate business entity, ignorance of the law is inadmissible as a defence) and therefore have a right (no such right) to murder him-her (still considered similar to other murders). Those who find excuses along these lines which are internationally accepted are to be classified as stupids-idiots-morons.
When the politicians are illegal, you can report to the police. When the police are illegal, you kill the police. You don't be an idiot and make reports to the illegal-police (contradiction, law spawns police and empowers the police via the people). Don't be a moron and call yourselves police when you are performing criminal-deeds. Example, america had not been voted by every person in the world to be the police of the world (not empowered) but consider themselves to be the police of the world (idiots) and use this as an excuse to commit crimes against humanity (illegal-police is contradiction, retards)
You screw around with people = kamma = people screw with you = you suffer The more you screw with people = ... = the more you suffer (1:1 direct correlation) If you cannot see that, you might as well be dead. Darwinian theory of stupidity-kills (fittest survive). If you had been reasonable to yourself, you would had asked yourself about your own suffering of, the harder you try (mental-locked dementedness), the harder you fall. Hypocrisy makes people blind. The more you attack others = the higher your attrition rates The heavier the heft-of the attacks (example minimum jail sentence for each type of crime) = the more you suffer and the higher your attrition-rates Too stupid(conceitedness) to be reasonable.? Works for me. Works against you. Might as well let you learn, the hard way.
As a chinese, i verified your ancestors had the world-map of not-flat-earth. As a human, i verified you are recalcitrants and pathological-liars (characteristics of the spiritually-destroyed) As a Buddhist, i know Kamma and how, what, where, when, ... I verified the information and qualify my statements and justify my insults. You had been judged and ignored until, conditions for Kamma to ripen, ... factors are right for multiplier-effects of speaking at the right time and the right place for maximum blow and results. I mean it.
If there is a another military exercise = exercise == kangaroo, wallaby, roos, wallaroo, wala-wala eh-eh Same as your legal-system and judiciary, spawning international terminology - kangeroo-courts

Melbourne was once very diverse, now it's China. I miss the old Melbourne from back in the days. Early 2000 till 2017 it was great. Now, all you see is the Chinese. Even shops like Myer are being taken over by the Chinese. Banks and shops are only hiring Chinese salespeople who can barely speak English. It's painful to deal with them when you walk into high-end shops like Myer. I don't understand why Chinese people being from a highly developed country like China is flooding this country. I understand why people from poor, underdeveloped countries move here, but not sure why people from developed nations move here. China is a well-developed, rich nation. Even the Indians left during the pandemic. Now it's mostly just the Chinese.
As a China born Melbournian, the reason I live here is because of China's ridiculous education system and political stuff. Melbourne isn't much compared to most chinese cities I've been to but it's homely.
Yeah even my Taiwanese friend said there are so many or too many Chinese here. Remember lots are students though. There are actually less Chinese tourist here now than pre pandemic 2020.
Not really! Recently i went on a Flight✈ from Singapore to Perth, Australia✈, i SAW ALL are Indians & middle- easterns people ONLY, NOT much Asians(chinese, malaysians, singaporeans). ALL are jus Indians & middle- easterners till my Mom even asked R we in the correct Flight!?? Is this Flight to Dubai O Mumbai instead!??
you people need to get off the crack, our economy is rock solid and always has been, the country is as big as the US with like a 10th of the population, do the math
I deliver the stock and replenish the shelves at that gnarly duty free store every day 😂 I haven't travelled a lot so didn't know it was that different from others.
Hello from the Netherlands👋 Can anybody tell me something about the housing availability and the rent prices? Is living in Melbourne/ Victoria expensive? Are wages high enough to pay fore everything and to save some money in the end? Thanks👍
Well, there is visiting Smelbourne and living here. You'd quickly realise how expensive real estate is as well shopping for food and clothing. Most liveable city in the world my ASS! Would rather live up north. Shopping is still expensive but you save everywhere else.
I don't really have a total favorite but I like the beat and rhythm of Melbourne (along with the art and live music scene) but also enjoy the flexibility Brisbane provides to travel to more coastal cities and towns :D
Don’t know if anyone will reply, but I am British and I am moving to Melbourne soon with work, what are the best neighbourhoods to look at moving too? I have a 3 year old also ☺️
Northern suburbs dude like Mill park, so peaceful you can hear a penny drop, good family environment, or Thomastown everything is conveniently close like schools, train station, library/leisure centre, shops with Epping Plazza near by, absolute dream i been here like 20 years
AFTER bein in melbourne for 2 years and perth 5 years, i've concluded AUSSIES are just Racist (FuLL STOP)🛑 No matter, how hard you "try" to impress themm, they're jus Found any FAULT & Dislike on you uuu :( 🖕🖕🖕
I have a complete opposite view for Melbourne. Systems are messy, kids committing crimes and people doing the most stupid things. I had a terrible family growing up and I hated the city as I consider to be toxic. Planning to leave to Japan in the future.
But a few things u see are wrong kids here are much more sensible, at least more then Americans. Kids cant commit crimes its illegal systems are great so idk what i mean...😅😅😅
@@emmmy6007 i live in Melbourne so i know experience and no kids do have manners. Have u even seen kids that "committed crimes" and how do u know the systems are messy? U would only know if u lived in Melbourne which i live so i know and no none of these are true
What’s the situation like with the bushfires? Me and my partner are thinking of moving there, and seeing the bushfire related videos got me really scared
@@justshowupshow We haven't had any significant bushfires since the last big one in 2019-2020. However, an accident happened up in the northern country region about 90 km from Melbourne, and it's now burning for a couple of days now. We usually get them when we have prolonged dry and windy days, but usually the temp drops down for 10C-20C in minutes when we reach our hottest peaks. You should be fine if you move within the inner suburbs of Melbourne.
Great vid , query would be you completely missed the horseracing scene in Australia and Melbourne it's massive there and part of their culture one assumes, 🎉The Melbourne Cup is like a 3 day festival ???
Thanks, maybe next time! I saw some of the racing on TV while in Vic and my home state also has a big racing culture so I wasn't too into it. Thank you for the insight tho!
Hi, thank you 🙂 I haven't been to much of Australia yet, just Melbourne and Brisbane at the moment, but I'll make a future video that shows each city in detail and if it's a worthy place to live 👍
I think March - May (autumn) is probably my preferred time to visit. Its shoulder season, so less crowds, lower prices, and lots of festivals happening in and around the city.
Please make video like this but with Sydney, I’m curious about its art scene like you put in Melbourne videos but I also curious about its beaches, thanks!
As a Muslim- immigrant myself, i faced AMPLE abused &harrassament from the Local- Aussie in Australia compared to years in CAN &NZ(combined) in my 1- year in Melbourne , i already got eggs thrown at while stayin- in the suburbs& "calling names" in CBD Melbourne compared to my 5years time in NZ & CAN(2 years NZ 3 years CAN) !!
Oh wow; I’m so sorry. I’m originally from Melbourne but I now live in Toronto and was surprised at just how discriminatory it is here. I never experienced that in Melbourne but it just goes to show that there are terrible people everywhere. Really hope your experience is better if you ever return
@@RoamingHeathen R u local- aussies(white- caucasian) cos Aussies tend to be "more polite" to Europeans(or white caucasian) compared to the Others............esp. Asians!!
that's Normal! Aussie tend to be White- supremacist! NO matter how much they had changed! @nd , by saying "Melbourn. is the Best city , is EXACTLY 100% saying NY is the Safest city in the Universe"!! 😅🤣😂😂
Doesnt usually happen in first generation, sometimes second usually by the third but you always respect your roots. Many single ethnicity neighbourhoods exist
I shall be returning to Melbourne in late August. I would appreciate progress on the completion on the Metro Link between North Melbourne and South Yarra. Also, progress on the underground line between Cheltenham and Box Hill. Now remember, the more you Americans prepare, the more likely you are to secure the Earth's greatest victory. Or do you all want to be destroyed? From me, it's no surrender...

Melbourne used to be so beautiful. People were super friendly and kind. It has lost a lot of its charm over the last five years, due to rising crimes, uncontrolled immigration intakes and the corrupt state government. Leo you missed its glory. If you think it is nice now, It WAS truly the place to be.
Very interesting point. That's tough to hear Judy but I understand - very similar to my own hometown of Denver, Colorado. What was once a great city has been slowly degrading with crime and rampant homelessness :(
I went last summer and I still thought it was one of the best cities , if not the best city I have been to, I constantly reminisce over that trip, nothing can replace it , absolutely an unforgettable vacation !
I live on the mornington peninsula and it is not a safe area. I have had pool pumps stolen, vandalised fences, vandalised garden and mail theft. It is not a nice place, there are a lot of criminals.
Just visited Melbourne I loved it. Next time I will drive myself to reach may more places in Victoria
I was thinking the same thing, especially the Great Ocean Road!
I am so hyped to live in this city.

Love Bendigo.
Yarra River is clean lol, it's just his color. In some countries depending on the flora and fauna on the water may influence the color of the water
Can't wait to get back to Melbourne

nope, unless you're in the outback but regular suburbs no
Nah😂
The Yarra River is like that for good reason. The whole south side of the river used to be alluvial swamp and the plant are no longer there to filter out the silt and nutrients. So the places you like there have emerged from draining all those marshes and billabongs. I think I'd prefer things as they were...
The soil in the Yarra River was contaminated many years ago. Upstream from the City is an area that was the "Rag Trade". Cotton dying in particular where dyes and industrial waste was discharged into the river. So to fx it now requires dredging the bottom. Governments have avoided that.
Further up the Yarra River is pure clear water.
We have a joke that says : The Yarra runs upside down, the bottom is on the top. 🇦🇺

No matter, how hard you "try" to impress themm, they're jus Found any FAULT & Dislike on you uuu :( 🖕🖕🖕
@phillipbriggs895 😅🤣😂😂..........racial Slurs ALert!!!
I would encourage - nay, I would strongly urge - anyone who wants to go to Melbourne to go there. And to stay there.
I have a complete opposite view for Melbourne. Systems are messy, kids committing crimes and people doing the most stupid things. I had a terrible family growing up and I hated the city as I consider to be toxic. Planning to leave to Japan in the future.
Good move I hate it too, so many lowlife idiots
Japan *Osaka* , the BEST👍
IKR JAPAN IS THE BESTTTTT
But a few things u see are wrong kids here are much more sensible, at least more then Americans. Kids cant commit crimes its illegal systems are great so idk what i mean...😅😅😅
@@emmmy6007 i live in Melbourne so i know experience and no kids do have manners. Have u even seen kids that "committed crimes" and how do u know the systems are messy? U would only know if u lived in Melbourne which i live so i know and no none of these are true
Nice video and beautyfull city !
I'm so happy to call this vibrant city, my home. This is a well-curated video.
That's great! Happy to hear, and thank you :)
What’s the situation like with the bushfires? Me and my partner are thinking of moving there, and seeing the bushfire related videos got me really scared
@@justshowupshow We haven't had any significant bushfires since the last big one in 2019-2020. However, an accident happened up in the northern country region about 90 km from Melbourne, and it's now burning for a couple of days now. We usually get them when we have prolonged dry and windy days, but usually the temp drops down for 10C-20C in minutes when we reach our hottest peaks. You should be fine if you move within the inner suburbs of Melbourne.
Mustn't travel much huh
@@nickolas6060 56 countries/territories. I hope I can visit more before I turn 40 in 13 years. 😉
Can anyone tell me which month is better to explore Australia 🇦🇺
Melbourne is awesome
❤
As an aussie who has explored the same places as you did... fantastic job... you seemed to learn alot. Will be watching nz next and then may subscribe
Thank you so much, Viv!
I need to stop being mad, Australian isn’t not to chabby. For Alysse in Los Angeles. Did it matter ?
Very interesting, and great video! What a life in Australia! Very creative people, great life style!
Thanks so much!
Wow that burning Koala 🐨 was quite the sight 😳
For real!
This guy change his mind we going in February Next year Will it be hot or cold and is Phillips lsland the same
Beautifull Melbourne City.
Great vid , query would be you completely missed the horseracing scene in Australia and Melbourne it's massive there and part of their culture one assumes, 🎉The Melbourne Cup is like a 3 day festival ???
Thanks, maybe next time! I saw some of the racing on TV while in Vic and my home state also has a big racing culture so I wasn't too into it. Thank you for the insight tho!
Thanks for the video
Of course, you got it!
Great content, what city in Australia would you recommend someone who is willing to move in to australia
Hi, thank you 🙂 I haven't been to much of Australia yet, just Melbourne and Brisbane at the moment, but I'll make a future video that shows each city in detail and if it's a worthy place to live 👍
I would recommend Sydney is more Metropolitan and less racist🚞
@@massimodanzelmo4607 thanks
Melbourne has so much to offer, it’s a much slower pace than Sydney😊.
@@K-Meas82 Yes i know ,i lived in Melbourne for many years, Sydney is more Cosmopolitan 🌍
Shame it still doesn't have a train link out to the airport.
For real. What gives??
What it a good time to go to Melbourne. We. Going there
I think March - May (autumn) is probably my preferred time to visit. Its shoulder season, so less crowds, lower prices, and lots of festivals happening in and around the city.
Leo is correct! Autumn is the best time to come to Melbourne as it is cool-cold, but the weather is the most stable too at this time of the year.
5:05 Those birds were terrifying
Tell me about it! Wouldn't want to be in a dark forest late at night hearing that..
Nice video bro❤
Thank you!
I’m lucky I live in Melbourne. Sunbury bit cold
I want to ask... Is there safe for muslim studied or work? I mean in melbourne... Not racism to muslim? Please answer :)
As culturally diverse as Melbourne is, I would venture to say that racism is at a minimum.
NO! ~ the answer is : NO!!!
Melbourne is getting Racism by the Hours, let alone is a street filled with full of homeless street- Beggars!!!!
as a None muslim- immigrants, i felt PTSD & TRAUMA just thinkin abt the westerns "civilizations" in Australia or Melbourne!
Good morning sir 😂
Please make video like this but with Sydney, I’m curious about its art scene like you put in Melbourne videos but I also curious about its beaches, thanks!
I will try!
As a Muslim- immigrant myself, i faced AMPLE abused &harrassament from the Local- Aussie in Australia compared to years in CAN &NZ(combined) in my 1- year in Melbourne , i already got eggs thrown at while stayin- in the suburbs& "calling names" in CBD Melbourne compared to my 5years time in NZ & CAN(2 years NZ 3 years CAN) !!
😮😨, that's Awful and terrified!!!
if u watch Al jeera news , many of themmm mentioned the abused & assaulted happening in Australia are as equal as happening in ..........America!!!
Oh wow; I’m so sorry. I’m originally from Melbourne but I now live in Toronto and was surprised at just how discriminatory it is here. I never experienced that in Melbourne but it just goes to show that there are terrible people everywhere. Really hope your experience is better if you ever return
@@RoamingHeathen R u local- aussies(white- caucasian) cos Aussies tend to be "more polite" to Europeans(or white caucasian) compared to the Others............esp. Asians!!
that's Normal!
Aussie tend to be White- supremacist! NO matter how much they had changed!
@nd , by saying "Melbourn. is the Best city , is EXACTLY 100% saying NY is the Safest city in the Universe"!!
😅🤣😂😂
You’re making us look much better than we actually are
I mean I just call it like I see/experience it. I'm sure things have changed a bit since my visit but hopefully for the better
Que massa essa cidade 🇧🇷
Melbourne is not the same, if you want to see a sub state of China just visit Melbourne city
Omg😲
Dont believe its the most liveable city thats bs most expensive cities more like it
Better to be Chinese than Pakistani/buslim
Yikesss........NOBody wants Thattt...........😅🤣🤣😂😂
whats wrong with chinese ? they contribute to the economy and pay thier taxes, they didnt come illegally to melbourne 😂
I would and i wish To go there , i hope so
How do you live there and have a new nationality?
Doesnt usually happen in first generation, sometimes second usually by the third but you always respect your roots. Many single ethnicity neighbourhoods exist
you DON'T ~
you will Get in de punch on FACE For *NOTHING* !! ~ by the Locals_oinkssies🐽🐷
Absolutely amazing city❤❤❤❤❤❤
I shall be returning to Melbourne in late August.
I would appreciate progress on the completion on the Metro Link between North Melbourne and South Yarra.
Also, progress on the underground line between Cheltenham and Box Hill.
Now remember, the more you Americans prepare, the more likely you are to secure the Earth's greatest victory. Or do you all want to be destroyed?
From me, it's no surrender...
I’m hoping to see the beautiful place like that in actual?
Nice explained everything
Thank you kindly!
Love Bendigo

Melbourne used to be so beautiful. People were super friendly and kind. It has lost a lot of its charm over the last five years, due to rising crimes, uncontrolled immigration intakes and the corrupt state government. Leo you missed its glory. If you think it is nice now, It WAS truly the place to be.
Very interesting point. That's tough to hear Judy but I understand - very similar to my own hometown of Denver, Colorado. What was once a great city has been slowly degrading with crime and rampant homelessness :(
I went last summer and I still thought it was one of the best cities , if not the best city I have been to, I constantly reminisce over that trip, nothing can replace it , absolutely an unforgettable vacation !
I agree this corrupt government has ruined it
@@leodoeslife_do note that everything he listed are racist dog whistles, with all the points being the same thing; too many “foreigners”.
You’re lying your a Chinese bot. Your clearly working for CCP to push these false narratives about our greatest country
Nothing , nothing beats Europe , trust me.
Europe is nothing to Australia
100% agree, nothing beats Europe in general, speaking from experience, living in lots of cities around the world
Depends where in Europe
I sense that Singapore may be more livable than Melbourne
@@anarchynz nah singapores weather is so bad
I love Melbourne
Exacto
Where can send pic in comments?
You missed The Great Ocean Road and 12 Apostles.
I know, I couldn't fit it into my short time there. Next time my friend!
I live on the mornington peninsula and it is not a safe area. I have had pool pumps stolen, vandalised fences, vandalised garden and mail theft. It is not a nice place, there are a lot of criminals.
I’m from Melbourne and I can’t get out of this communist state fast enough!!! Victoria is NOT the state you want to visit
Amen🤝🙏 to THAT!
~ the No. of chineseCN immigrants here. Disgusting!!!
Lie
Agree
