The Blue Mountains are an impressive place and are only 2h away from Sydney. They look like a different world (like most of the places out of the city). I still can’t believe that lots of locals, expats and backpackers haven’t been there… The name of these mountains comes from the blue tinge the range […]

Hampden Suspension Bridge, Kangaroo Valley, NSW
I’m not a bridge enthusiast or anything but I really love this bridge, it was crazy to see how much the wooden decking moved when trucks passed over it. The bridge is also the only surviving suspension bridge from the colonial period of NSW and was an outstanding engineering achievement for its time. Hampden Bridge […]

Our New Roof Garden – Harris Street, Pyrmont
After about 5 mins of deliberation we decided that Point Street wasn’t for us, well for now, and have just signed the lease. We fell in love with this loft apartment which was converted from an old wool factory. Awesome. No longer will I be living in a purpose built apartment. It’s weird I know, […]

Dorota and I have just been looking at apartments in Pyrmont, and have both just fallen in love with Point Street, this is possibly the view from behind one of the apartments we’ve just looked at. Is this going to be our new place? I wonder.
