Melbourne Trip with Tivya

Hey yall! Recently I went on a trip to Melbourne with Tivya! We spent a week over there. It was hella fun travelling just two of us. Since I packed my luggage at 5am on a Satuday morning, I wasnt much prepared for winter in Melbourne. I cried on my second night when I was heading to bed. I know it may seems funny but I'm a type of person that cant take cold. When the cold wind blew at me at the traffic junction, I shivered my ass off hoping to get home quickly. Thankfully, my awesome buddy Tivya lent me her heat tech top to layer when we go out. 


At Changi Airport 


Day 1:


We reached Melbourne airport on Sunday morning. I remembered it was freaking 13 degree. We took a skybus > Southern Cross station >  Melbourne Central > lugging our luggage to find for our apartment. Pretty much laze at home and we met a white couple who stayed with us for 3 nights. It was a little awkward because we didn really talk much. We explored the city area and met up with Tivya's cousin's friend and his cousins.

Day 2:









Woke up at 4.30am to prepare ourselves as we are heading to Mount Buller. Met the rest of our tour mates at Federation square. Needless to say, it was snowing in the mountain. It was 0 degree. We didn ski but we played the toboggan and did snow angel. Hehe. Spent almost the whole day at Mount Buller and when the night fall, we went for a night walk around the CBD area. 




Day 3:


Day 3 tour would be visiting Great Ocean Road and the 12 Apostles. Met a racist white dude from Sydney. He didn even bother talking to us during lunch time. What's funny is that he have an Asian girlfriend/wife. Tivya and I gave him a nickname called Mr "Know It All" because he likes to poke nose into other people business.

Day 4:


We ended our last day tour with a wine tour and a trip to the chocolate factory. I was pretty much tipsy by the end of the tour. Haha. I love this tour so much because we met so many funny people. Tivya and I were in #teamwhite VS #teamasian in a Petanque game. The oldies in the group kept sabotaging me by telling the wine connoisseur that I love to drink red wine. When in actual fact, we were talking about shots.

Day 5:


We decided to sleep in and leave the house around 1pm because we were super tired from the other day tours. We headed to South Wharf to check out the duty free outlet. It suck that the malls in Aussie closes really early. ):

Day 6:


We went to Brighton Beach to take some pictures at the colourful bathing boxes. Headed back to DFO to get Tivya's MK watch and took some pictures at Eureka Skydeck 88. We went to the Casino at night to try our luck again and party at their club. 






Sending postcards to each other.


Party!


Chilling at home. 


Day 7:


Once we got home from party, I took a nap for an hour and we started packing our luggage. Thankfully, my luggage was not overloaded but Tivya's luggage was. Hahaha. We had breakfast at the airport and took a flight back to SG. I was tired as hell that I looked like I was high on weed. And that concludes my trip with Tivya! :D




Right now, I'm down with a gastric attack. My tummy has been feeling queasy since the time I was in Melbourne. Hopefully, the pain would subside soon.. ):
