Sydney - A Very Bad Intro Auzzie Culture

Sydney in a Nutshell. Ill keep this quick and dirty for you all because truth be told, Sydney, not my Favorite city so far and I have far better things to share with you all.

First days were spent wandering around discovering all the sites and sounds and smells we could. Expensive food, Free Museums, Cruise Ships and Beautiful new Friends. Ultimate Oz is to blame for most of our new found friends and hilarious experiences.
Biggest Cruise ship I have ever Seen - Sydney Harbour

Sydney Harbour Bridge

Met Hilarious Sydney Business types and ate amazing food

Ozzie Staple Foods

We had to Indulge in Subway, Previous Canadian addictions followed me here

St Mary's Cathedral Sydney

St Mary's Cathedral, Absolutely Stunning

Museum of Modern Art - Free exhibits about work life truths

Sometimes Modern Art You just get creeped out from

Best Exhibit By Far

Keeping It real, Exhibit was epic

Ingenious Pub Design on the old Bank of Sydney Building

Australian Police having an Identity crisis trying to be Mounties and failing.

High Park Wedding. Stunning Bride and Groom. 

The Food in Australia is a whole post in itself, but Ill just leave this picture here for you all to decide how insanely tasty this Asian market was. Open late and in the basement of a mall. No fucks given we ate that shit all week long with portions for 2 meals!



We headed to Darling Harbour on our last night for an amazing night of fireworks and some goodbyes to newly made friends. 


This was a touch screen app that allowed us to pain an entire building in the colours of our choice. Needless to Say Lauren and Gareth and I played with it relentlessly for several minutes too long like the children we wanted to be 




I think by the 3rd day when Danielle and I had still not met an Australian Citizen we got very discouraged. It was not the city we had hoped it would be. It was cold, grated it was spring but after the first week we both looked at each other and said, WHERE THE HELL ARE ALL THE AUZZIES!

Turns out...NOT SYDNEY...And they don't fancy it very much either. At 1 million to buy into a property to live here, and a monopolized market of overseas buyers, Most people avoid for a warmer, smaller more welcoming section of towns and cities....
