Last April 2016, I spent my term break in the land down under, where I first experienced my most favorite season, autumn–when we wore winter clothes because hell yes the weather was nippy for us already (9DEG). Agh, I love how some people would just walk barefoot on the streets (as I’ve seen some in Port Stephens), and also how we never ran out of water because everything was just potable (but still, mind where you’re getting water from lol.) Traffic is NONEXISTENT as compared to here in the Philippines. The heat of the sun never gave me any scorching feeling. NSW has a lot of lookouts that are purely breathtaking. There’s so much more to say but I might not finish this entry anymore. So here were the highlights! (PS: Excuse the faces tho sorry)
Sydney’s Luna Park located at Milsons PointHarbour BridgeI look like a character from the Smurfs lolBOOKS BEFORE…chos. One of the weekend markets we found downtown Sydney!A beautiful mural painting on a lavatory door in North Head SanctuarySt. Mary’s Cathedral
About to see the sunset while staring at the Harbour Bridge ❤Royal Botanic Garden located in the heart of Sydney.. Just a nearby walk to the Opera House. I love this place.I didn’t jump ok.Parents trying to re-enact the iconic picture from the film, Notting Hill (but my dad was the one lying down instead lol)It’s a cockatoo! Mom had to take multiple shots just for a decent shot. I look scared and weird.
Featherdale Wildlife Park in Doonside, Sydney near Blacktown. Finally saw a wallaby!Now this one’s a wallaroo. And yes, I TOUCHED IT.
UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH ❤
While we were walking to see the Blue Mountain, we came across this picturesque view so I had to sit. 😀
View of the Blue Mountains as we were going up via the Scenic Cableway of Scenic World. Going down, we rode the Scenic Railway which is apparently the steepest railway in the world. Another trivia, it was called Blue Mountains because of its abundance of eucalyptus leaves. ORAYT. Now, can you spot the Three Sisters in the picture?Just feeding them cockatoos. No big deal.Bye for now Sydney. Hello Port Stephens! (Anna Bay Sand Dunes is love)
Bye Port Stephens!Darling Harbour at night with the performing sirens. UGH I LOVE THE CITY LIGHTS.Queen Victoria Building.Lindemans in Hunter Valley! WINE ADDICTS, WHERE YOU AT!

It felt like I was on an endless road in paradise.
One of my dream schools already.The world famous beach in Sydney, Bondi beach.Chillin’ around Bondi beach with Adobo, salad and rice. I MISS HOME (1/2jk)!!Cold sand + cold water = PERFECT LIFE (but wait I’m not so sure with the cold water tho.)
PERI PERI PERI PERI CHICKAN. (@ Manly Wharf)
Saw this restaurant somewhere on Facebook and decided to look for it. IT TOOK US HOURS WALKING UP AND DOWN THE STREETS JUST TO EAT LUNCH AT THIS PLACE (located in Surrey St., Darlinghurst). LOL. But I gotta say it was worth it!I was amazed by how they served their cacio e pepe – the waiter held this big plate of cheese which they would call as the ‘cheese wheel’ while mixing the pasta inside!
Rode the Toboggan ride in Nelson Bay. FUN. Had to go back for another ride.
