Sydney is a wonderful and beautiful city. Very easy to explore on foot and full of friendly people.

My favorite spot was probably the botanic gardens right next to the opera house. I also enjoyed going to the different harbours for a snack and a beer. Last but not least, I can really recommend taking a hike in Blue Mountains right outside the city for some spectacular views.

I liked Melbourne a bit more than Sydney, but not by much. And both cities ended up on my "Places where I could live"-list. And that is a pretty short list.
