Funky Melbourne...

---

... Melbourne is so funky - what more can I say...

... anywhere else and it would be called a dive! Where else do you know that you can put a sofa on the front lawn and it be considered funky and totally practical to chill out on the front step... Everyone drives really old bangers that you'd normally reserve for the dump... The worse you dress, the 'trendier' you are... All the bars and cafes have miss-matching furniture; plastic, wooden, paint falling off, old lamp shades, old tea pots for sugar pots... The longer the list of made-up coffees that are 'originally' Italian the trendier the cafe; vienna (black coffee with cream), affogato (black coffee with ice cream!), mugachino, babychino, chino... The old architectural features that would have been ripped out by home owners are still intact... Even the graffiti looks cool...

...it's fab!
