I am flying in to Melbourne on the 16th February by myself (very nervous)

Would love to meet up with some new people in same position along the way, am staying at the coffee palace hostel for a couple of nights before moving on to habitat hq probably. St Kilda seems to be a wicked place to stay am hoping the work will be there too.

Hopefully chat soon..

Hi, Im an Aussie and I just moved from Cairns to Melbourne.

I was living in St Kilda for 2 months, now in Kew East staying with some people i know.

St Kilda is a great area and very alternative.

Would be happy to catch up for a drink :-) Im pretty much in the same boat as you i dont know anyone here either!

You can add me on facebook if you like?

Hey guys,

St Kilda is definately the place to be! Its a funky place with lots of cafes and so close to the beach!

I live in Ivanhoe - (right near you Sarah) and have just got back from travelling for a long time so have found I dont know a lot of people here any more - they have all moved on! haha!

Would be happy to catch up for a drink and show you some great spots in Melbourne!

Hey that sounds absolutely fantastic, can't beat getting shown around by someone who knows the area. I am arriving on the 16th Feb. Where did you go travelling?

Yeah St.Kilda is definately the place to stay guys. There are heaps of other travellers and its only 10 minutes from the actual city. I am from the mornington peninsula but travelled around the UK alone and had the best time...

The beaches along the whole coast are awesome and the weather should still be hot in Feb.

Enjoy your trip.
