5 Things to Do This Autumn in Melbourne

If you're anything like me, the thought that winter is coming is a bittersweet idea. I had gotten WAY too spoiled with the "no seasons" lifestyle Southern California brings. From this spoiled temporary lifestyle, I had forgotten just how beautiful the changing of the seasons actually are. Yes, it gets darker WAY earlier, so the notion of actually finding the motivation to do anything becomes a little slimmer. And yes, the weather takes a turn for well... freezing. But in Melbourne, we're not facing polar vortex-like cold. It's chilly, but at least there's no snow. I love getting out and exploring this amazing city! Struggling to think of things to do this autumn? Here are some of my favourites:

A Healthy Adventure

Not every adventure involves travelling the world and exploring new places. Sometimes adventures can happen right in your own home. These can be adventures of self-reflection, growth, and personal development. Recently, I've been in a bit of a poor health funk. I was eating poorly, I wasn't exercising, and it was starting to seem like my body was morphing into the couch (it happens to the best of us from time to time). My body and my health were definitely paying the price for my poor decisions. I knew that something needed to change. I was hated feeling sluggish and exhausted all of the time. With my busy schedule, I was worried that any attempt I made would quickly stop. I often become overwhelmed by too much change. This causes me to fail quickly. I did not want that to be the case this time. I needed this change to become a habit.

Here are some of my favourite day trip spots:
