We tried exploring Melbourne, Australia without a plan.... we can't believe what we found! 😮 We've just completed an entire lap of Australia and we’re ending it exactly where we started… in Melbourne, Victoria! Let’s go explore 😁
We start our trip at Flinders Street Station, one of the most iconic buildings in Melbourne, and Josie tells James she “knows a spot” … and it’s a vintage photo booth 😮
Next up: the important stuff… COFFEE. We try to find some world-famous Melbourne coffee down Degraves Street, before properly exploring the city’s laneways and alleyways (even though you could never see them all!). We kick that off with Hosier Lane and AC/DC Lane, two of the best street art spots in the city.
After this, we head to the State Library of Victoria… we had to after our Adelaide experience 😅 We also take a walk along the Yarra to reminisce on some of our earlier videos, then jump on a tram to the Shrine of Remembrance ❤️
Finally, we end Day 1 in St Kilda, a funky, artsy part of Melbourne, and finish the day on the beach!
Day 2 starts (and finishes) at Queen Victoria Market, the largest open-air market in the Southern Hemisphere 😮 Josie tries just about EVERY food, and we wrap it up by picking the perfect souvenir to remember our lap of Australia.
But that’s it… our LAST vlog in Australia. We’ve got 1 more video coming out to reflect on our time here and then we’re off! Goodbye 😉
Filmed in August 2025.
