Hello Melbourne!

Beautiful Melbourne! 

Hi guys! I have not posted in a while so here goes!

Its been two weeks since I landed in Melbourne town 

and its been a busy 2 weeks! 

First and foremost I want to say the city of Melbourne 

is visually stunning. The first time I walked into town 

I was struck by its amazing energy and beauty!  I saw trams

horses and yellow cabs rushing past Flinders st (main train station).

Straight away I felt that this city was special and felt like home almost instantly! The buildings are architecturally stunning, big sky scrapers and shopping areas make it a place to be! 

I've been walking all around the city and have seen so much of Melbourne already: Fitzroy, Chappel Street, Flinders Street, Bourke Street and many more streets! ;) So far I LOVE south Yarra area, fabulous boutiques for clothes shopping as well as amazing cafe's and sexy bars! If you were lucky enough to come to Melbourne please visit this area as its alot like London minus the bad pollution and masses of people pushing and shoving you out of the way!

My friends back home know i'm a party animal and as soon as I got of the plane the next  evening I was out and about thanks to my wonderful friend Fabrizio! Partying that night in a place called 'The Peel' was an experience I tell ya that! Crazy drag queens and many drinks later meant I had a hangover for days... ooops! :P

One thing I really want to spread the word about is the VIBE in Melbourne town. Coming from a busy city like London where people on the underground seem almost suicidal (slight exaggeration but you get me!) I can honestly say this city has a good positive and laid back vibe and guess what most people smile at you when you make contact! This chilled out vibe of  'no worries mate' took a few days to get used to but actually I love it and I'm becoming more chilled as a result which is never a bad thing!

To conclude my journey thus far; I have partied, walked loads and loads, seen many cool spots in Melbourne town, reconnected to old travel friends Svet, Fabrizio and others, already shot with one of Australia's top fashion photographers Peter Coulson (http://www.peter-coulson.com.au) had job interviews, OH and its my birthday tomorrow so turning a year older in a beautiful place with great people isn't so bad! 

Note to my London friends and family: I F***ing miss you all with all my heart and soul and i'm only a Skype or Viber call away! 

One Love

Australia i'm HERE! Finally!!!

Rebourne in MELBOURNE! 

OMFG! After stopping over in Istanbul from London, hanging out in Taksim square (center of Istanbul) where all the riots happened just weeks ago and having a magical time (food, mosques, friendly passionate people with soul passion and FOOD!), then going to Dubai (literally for 9 hours) meeting up for a quick hello with amazing beautiful friend +Marisa Vorayos  seeing all the amazing tall towering buildings and beautiful Arab people I'm finally HERE i'm in F****ING MELBOURNE!!! 

So its my first few hours here and the jet lag has hit me in the face and so not used to the time zone difference! I have already made friends on the plane here and with the cabin crew staff and was even greeted at the airport to the whole ground cabin crew team shouting "welcome to Melbourne Yash! You will love it!" 

I have been so lucky and met a dear friend Taylor back in London town, who is a fellow Ozzie here! He has been truly amazing to me and picked me up from Melbourne Airport with his cool Mama and this will be where i'll be staying in Melbourne! I can't thank you guys enough already! 

SO here goes beautiful friends and family this is to a new beginning... as i looked at the "Welcome to Melbourne" poster on the wall it just came to me I will be "Rebourne in Melbourne!"  :D 

Miss you all already! 

One Love <3

A new journey is about to begin!

Feeling super excited and nervous! 

                                         

Hi beautiful people! This is a exciting time in my life and I have been told by so many of my friends and family to create a blog sharing with you all my crazy experiences that are about to unfold! 

For those who don't know me my name is Yash Ozbaris, Born and bred Turkish Cypriot South Londoner about to embark on a new phase in my life and move to the other side of the world to Melbourne in Australia! I'm super excited, nervous, anxious, nostalgic but above all feel so pumped to experience new things in a totally new country! 

I have had a tough couple of years losing a dear friend (RIP Darryl Boyd- doing this for both of us! Always in my heart) leaving a mental relationship which those of you who are close and dear to me know affected me in a profound way, needless to say I am bouncing back from all of this and all of these wild and emotional experiences have really inspired me to take the next step in my life and travel to Australia (I've been talking about this for literally 2 years!) 

So please stayed tuned to my blog: 'http://lifeissserendipity.blogspot.com' I'll be posting images and blogging about my experiences on my travels to hopefully inspire and bring a smile to all your beautiful faces! 

One Love <3
