PERSIAPAN SEBELUM KE AUSTRALIA; BELAJAR DARI KESALAHAN KITA

SYDNEY TRAVEL GUIDE & BUDGET TIPS FOR FIRST TIMER

Believe it or not, we have been living in Australia (in particularly Sydney) more than anywhere else outside of Indonesia. Though Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand might sound so close and even cheaper, Sydney has been socalled our second home after living there for at least 1.5 years during our post graduate studies in 2009 - 2010. Thus, coming back to Sydney and other cities in Australia is like being at home (We came back in 2011, 2016, 2017 and now 2019), We have quite a good knowledge about Sydney city in general, well at least we knew where we wanted to go during our recent trip to Sydney on September 2019. With this blog, we would like to share you some basic infos about Australia and a few recommended spots to visit for a first timer. Let's check out more!

THE GROUNDS OF ALEXANDRIA ~ REVISITING 2019

It's our second time visited The Grounds of Alexandria and we think it's A MUST whenever you visit Sydney. The whole ambience has changed since the first time we visited them in 2016. It's a Candyland theme with colorful giant candies, flowers and garden. We unfortunately came at the wrong time as weekday was quite quiet and the outdoor stalls did not open. There were only two dining restaurants opened by the time of our visit, but the one with brunch menus closed earlier (around 4 PM), leaving only one restaurant opened "The Poting Shed" which is the expensive option for dining. If you wanna read the full review of The Grounds, you can check out our first blog review by CLICKING HERE. But if you wanna see the new look, read more on this post!

THE GROUNDS OF ALEXANDRIA - Sydney

So, first thing first, this sign direction is not a fake direction. Its real, lol. If you open up their website, you'll gonna be a little bit confused because they have several sub-websiteS to open. The Grounds is just the big area, but inside they have several different shops / spots. From take away coffee / bread, open space market, to indoor cafe.
