Went in to the city centre today. Spent about 4 h walking around and still feels like I’ve only seen a fraction of the city. Countless different types of shops and food places and so many people!
The time I spent in the city made me realize something. I believe that I come across as quite rude to the Aussie people. The reason is that in Sweden when you are in a crowded space, you usually tend to squeeze yourself by an person who is standing in your way making your best effort not to touch them. If you do bump in to them you might mumble “excuse me”. So that is my usual way of interacting with people in crowded spaces. In Melbourne if you face someone in a narrow space going in the opposite direction as you, they will say “sorry” before you have even started to make an attempt of walking past them. Conclusion: I need to work on my manners.

Mini burrito. So delicious!
Old-fashioned tram. Most of the trams are modern ones but I guess hipsters need some form of public transport as well.
One of the RMIT buildings. Check out the fancy architecture on the building behind it!
Queen Victoria Market. Everything from cheese and veggies to clothes and souvenirs.
Drinking coffee from a sippy cup. Very practical when you’re on the run!
