Location: Melbourne, Australia
A welcome relief from the longest winter of my life in the UK, Melbourne has welcomed me back with days of sunshine!
Whipping out the summer clothes and slip-slop-slapping on the sunscreen before heading out to catch-up with some of my favorite people, there's definitely no place like home.
The city has also introduced me to some new bars that have popped up since my last visit. The Aviary in Victoria Street had a funky Richmond feel; Siglo Bar with balmy views from the rooftop terrace of Parliament House and St Patricks Catherdral on a Summer's night was Melbourne in a nutshell; and the Riverland (underneath Transport Bar in Federation Square), for an after work drink while watching the rowers along the Yarra, was a reminder of why this is one of my favourite cities in the world.

Degraves Street amongst the office-worker crowds was a reminder of decent lunchtime eating. No mash and fries from the canteen for these locals! A lunchtime walk, some take-away sushi or an eat-in panini is all they need.

Melbourne may be renowed as a food capital in the country, but it's selection of bars are well up there as the perfect place to catch up for a drink with old and dear friends.
