My First Experience in Melbourne City!

by: Somaly
Namaste wonderful souls and dear readers, 
This year, my cousin (monk) stayed and practiced his religion at Thomastown, Victoria. We decided to visit my cousin on a long weekend. My husband loves to stay in Melbourne CBD so we flew to Melbourne on Friday and returned to Brisbane on Monday. It was my first time to explore the city.
My cousin stayed Eysanmeanchey Temple for three months then he returned to Cambodia.

When my husband and I arrived at the Grand Hotel, the hotel manager was very helpful, friendly, and warm in welcoming us. We felt very comfortable and safe. We love the hotel building's historic appearance and central location. The manager recommended Cafe and Eatery Grain Store. We went to the cafe for two breakfasts. Their foods was beautiful, well decorated, and super delicious. We would recommend the cafe.

Our plans explored city, enjoyed foods, visited my cousin, went for a massage, and took a short nap. Our traveling practice might be different from major tourists and travellers. We just know that we can visit the city again in future so there is no rush to see all the popular destinations. We are spontaneous explorers and worked with what our body needs. If we felt tired, we stopped and took short nap. We love to support local restaurants, pubs, taxi, and business. We love to explore Melbourne cuisines.

For my first experience and travelled in the Melbourne I was amazed with all the high rise buildings, historic buildings, people, lifestyle, culture, foods, public transportations, some small block streets where I could find the restaurants, food courts, street arts, pubs, and river walk. I felt like Melbourne City is bigger, busier, and more modern and in advanced than Brisbane. however I still love to live in the Brisbane suburbs. 

My husband and I had a relaxed time and an amazing experiences in our trip. We cannot wait to explore the beautiful cities and places in the world. We are saving and planning our journey. We have some countries that we would love to experiences and learn from the people lifestyle, culture, language, historic buildings, interesting destinations, and foods.

Our travel expectations are simple and easy going. We understand that we might have bad or good experiences in our trips. We wish that we could have the wonderful time and experiences, meet the beautiful people along the way, have safe trips, gain the knowledge and insights, and be able to share and recommend some good hotels, good restaurants, delicious foods, and interesting destinations.
