@JoFaye are you headed to Queensland? If you love the beach Gold Coast is great. You'll also enjoy Airlie beach it's backpackers Haven. You can catch a boat to the islands.
Hi Jo, Welcome to Sydney! I recommend you take a return ferry ride across Sydney harbour from Circular Quay (which is near the Sydney Opera House) to a place called Manly Beach 😉It's nice to do on a sunny day! A short walk from the opera house through the pleasant Botanic Gardens gets you to the Sydney Art Gallery. The Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb at sunrise or sunset is a memorable experience 👍🏽👍🏽Also, consider checking out the scenic view of Sydney and suburbs from Centrepoint Tower which may help you get your barings. There is good coffee and pubs all over the place!
@@1BIGFROGGY Wow! Thank you so much for all these great tips! My Sydney vlog is actually out in a few days (stay tuned😉)! I managed to tick off lots during my stay! I loved Sydney! Super busy - but great atmosphere for a first timer!!😁
You are certainly are a conversationist. Beach locations often draw the fit minded types. But head away from the beach inland and that mindset quickly vanishes. It must be the sea air and wealth that makes people that way. I spent most lunches at work running about Sydney city, because it was a social thing. Enjoy.
More of a Blue Mountains guy would recommend checking those out if you havent planned to, but glad you are enjoying the beach life. Good accent attempt lmao
@@stalliondave9338 I wanted to do the Blue Mountains day trip in Sydney, but it was fully booked the days I was there! (That vlog is out in a few days!) Looked amazing!!
@JoFaye oh sad times it's nice up here at the moment, nice temperature and the waterfalls are happening because we've had some rain. Was it like the Three Sisters thingo? Very popular Ok I'll check it out 👍
@JoFaye how long is your list 😂 what you really need is a road trip! Wanted to agree about the mornings too. Running at sunrise makes you feel electric. Or at least it does for me, nothing lile it
@ oh it’s very long!😂 Might not get around to it all in this leg - but it’s more of a lifetime bucket list! Yes! 100% - sunrise runs really set me up great for the day☺️ I’m not fast at all, but i love them!
If you havent and you're still here, cheapest and best thing to do is get a ferry from Circular quay to Manly, perfect was to spend a day at Manly beach and also see Sydney on the harbour for dirt cheap. Just tap on and off with your credit card
@@JoFaye A recent survey of >170k global travellers by Flight Centre rated Perth the best city in the world to visit. Sydney was 15th.... so, there is that.... 😁
@@RootedMate So true mate. But I think the poor girl may be a little upset with the trainfare. Plus may be a little too long for a day trip. Just sayin 👍🙃😁🙃🤣🤣
Loving your blogs Jo. What an experience you're having. Look forward to the next one already. Take care and enjoy! ❤
@@sandramcarthur1150 thank you so much, Sandra!!❤️ I’m absolutely loving it!! Xx

Love your vids. Gustos are great. Try their brekky bagels and pastries as a treat. Early mornings are the best before ppls arrive mid morning.
@@bondioneohfourthree7488 Thank you so much!!☺️ How kind! I’m loving the food out here! Got loads to try still - open to all suggestions!!

Travelling at 19 is very brave. Welcome to Oz.

@ Yeah! My tour group went and loved it!! I was gutted I couldn’t attend. It’s on my list tho! I’ll make sure I see it at some point in my life😁

Thanks for the suggestion! Sydney vlog coming soon - I did Manly beach & explored the sights!☺️ Had a lovely time!!
@@JoFaye yeow! Glad you did, I’ll have to look out for it when it drops! Hope you’re having fun 🤩
Melbourne's fantastic but im biased cheers
@@tonyde6423 It’s on my list!! So much I still want to see😁
The view gets better in Perth.....
@@zwieseler ohhh…I might have to add that to my list!🥰 Looks beautiful from what I’ve seen online! Would love to visit!!
@@JoFaye A recent survey of >170k global travellers by Flight Centre rated Perth the best city in the world to visit. Sydney was 15th.... so, there is that.... 😁
Perth is great, only need half a day to see everything.
@@NickStevens-o7n Kings Park recently named Australia’s no. 1 tourist attraction… yes, the Opera House was no. 2…. And we got quokkas….
Mate don't go to Byron, it sucks. Go to Yamba or any one of the beautiful towns and beaches around Byron.
Thanks for the suggestion! It’s part of the group tour which I am going on - I’m here right now and loving it!
Go to Byron, because that's where you kinfolk will be 🤙 Yamba etc is for people with cars that have seen the usual spots.
@ Byron has been great! Vlog will be out sometime next week! ☺️
Flat white invented in Melbourne
@@livertic Oh really? That’s amazing, I never knew that! Might need to take a trip down 😂
You pronounced Bondi and Coogee right. 👌
@@Danger_Mouse_00 Wow. Thank you!😂 proud of myself!!
You want to save money shop at Chemist Warehouse and Priceline Pharmacy all your suncream, girly stuff and drugs "legal" etc. just a tip for ya.
Thank you so much for the tip!! I’ve seen quite a lot of discount chemists - they are great!
McCafe Coffee is a bit unAustralian! are you a tourist or a bogan (local slang)? independent coffee shops are the go in Sydney & Melbourne
@@RJS4287 yeah I know - I just opted for McDonald’s for convenience & cheapness to be honest!😂 still great coffee tho!
Get on the train and head South to Wollongong and further down the coast. There are so many beaches that are way better than Bondi
@@allangoodger969 that’s for the suggestion!! I’m just going with the flow, so any recommendations are welcome☺️
Just head to southern Western Australia beaches and be done with it. No beaches are better anywhere in the world
