Great set of pictures. I was just in Sydney in April and the issue now is flooding rather than fires. I really fell in love with the city and all it has to offer. I would move there in a minute if they just had substantial mountains like NZ for skiing. That is the only thing that country is missing. Sydney is stunningly beautiful and vibrant and you captured it well in you photos.

It's called The Exchange.

There's actually a ski resort in the Snowy Mountains right between Sydney and Melbourne. It's a 5 hour drive from Syd.

Great set of pics by the way thanks for posting. Looks like you had a pretty extensive tour. If you're into walking round neighbourhoods then doing the inner city and touristy areas is a must, but after you've done that I recommend taking the train out into the suburbs because there's a lot of walkable and distinctive areas right around train stations throughout the metro area, so just a suggestion for spare time.

I had been to some of the EXACT spots, I love Sydney better than NYC. Sydney is more of sunshine, brighter and laid back but with strong business vibes.

NYC is

Beautiful set of photos!! Never been there, but definitely high on my list. It offers such an appealing mix of beautiful historic & modern architecture, beautiful beaches and urban vitality. Love those arcades!

Too bad they're not 3000 to 4000 meters. They're just too short. So weird to see Eucalyptus trees in snow.

Lived in Sydney for several months in 2011 while on a WHV visa. Your photos make it seem exactly the same and has brought back memories for me.

Thank you!
