Welcome to Straya. Enjoy your stay. I’ll let the local Melbournites give details, but just get lost. Little alleyways in the CBD are a treat. Make sure your stay includes meeting some of our crazy wildlife - kangaroos, koalas, echidnas, platypus, wombats, snakes etc

Go to the bar/restaurant under that bridge and have a Parmi/Parma & pot! 🐓 🍻
