Honestly, it was hard to walk in Melbourne without wondering what marvels would appear around the corner. In the end I was looking forward to encountering alleyways and discovering the colourful art adorning the walls and in some cases floor! @visitmelbou

About last night... @atticamelbourne, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. After months of trying to get a table (missing out because we remembered to book too late), we succeeded 2 months ago. We coordinated flights, accomodation and additional dinner guest

City scapes... exploring the intricate and abundant alleyways and malls of Melbourne you can't help but discover something new and interesting... @visitmelbourne #visitmelbourne

As we walked back tonight, this gorgeous ray of sunshine cut across the Yarra river like a light shining from a lighthouse. I'm wondering if this is Melbourne's way of telling me I've come home? @visitmelbourne #visitmelbourne #sunset
by Fran Tapia

You can't help but look at everything here. The art 🎨 on the walls is colourful and at times provocative. On the floor simplistic and interesting. We had to go for a walk after gorging ourselves on @lunecroissant - sooooo good! @visitmelbourne #visitm

The buildings from across our room are stunning! In the early light this one looks like gold, and the reflections of our building on it makes me think of a city scape. #visitmelbourne @visitmelbourne

Ahhh @visitMelbourne, you've outdone yourself. Well, technically @taxikitchen has made you shine. Every single dish we tried (and there were a few) was divine. From the simply crispy tempura mussels with yuzu mayonnaise, to the eggplant with miso, to the

It's the weekend! 😁 not too many left until we bid 2016 farewell and we welcome in 2017! I'm off to Melbourne to catch up with friends and enjoy the sights. See you soon! #visitcanberra #sofranksocial #igerscanberra

Take your pick.... @gelatomessina had some great flavours @thecommons_au tonight! Between the baos, the burgers, the chicken, the cocktails, the Pialligo cold meats (try the kingfish if they have it, delicious) I am surprised I even had space for the gela

It's a blue kind of week. No, I'm not sad 😉, just feel like I need to slow down a little. The year is almost over, and while I've done so much, it feels like 2016 went 'pfff' and I keep asking myself 'it's the end of the year already????' Hope you ha

The most minute things can be so wondrous! I spent a fair bit of time watching these ants 🐜; the sun ☀️ would light them up and make the tree mould beneath them a brighter shade of yellow. They didn't seem bothered by their 'stalker' - and went b

An early start tomorrow morning - not quite as early as today's @canoncollectiveofficial sunrise shoot, but it will be a long day. This was the last shot I took this morning, at about 6:30am. Most people had packed up by then with the sun being well above
