Sydney

Sydney...
Where do I begin? I feel as though Sydney needs very little introduction, so I won't say too much about it, as I'm sure it's already been said.

But what is Sydney to me?
It's stylish, glamourous, our biggest city, exciting, interesting, fascinating. I could even go so far as to call it The Paris of Australia.
It's a nice combination of modern and historic, Australian and ethnic, and there's something to be found here for everyone, no matter what your interests.

What I love about it most is that there are so many attractions right in the centre of the city, within easy reach using just public transport. Enough to keep one busy for several days.

Across the harbour

Another thing I like about Sydney is that despite it's size and being by far the largest city in Australia, you can go over to the other side of the harbour and feel like you're in the bush....you almost can be!
I really like Sydney's parks and green spaces, and being so close to water and such a nice harbour wherever you go.

Large parks and open spaces are also another good feature of Sydney.

Pros and Cons

Pros:A wonderfully photogenic city
Cons:The lifestyle is more expensive there
In a nutshell:Something for everyone, so much to see and do
