Fremantle won me over from the get-go. I fell in love with the community vibe and their support for everything local.
A great example of the Fremantle way of life is Many 6160. Converted from the old Myer building, the 20,000 m2 space now houses over 50 retailers, ranging from hats and soap to art and creative workshops. The concept of Many revolves around community, a very supportive one at that.

Tucked away in a converted warehouse in Fremantle, Bread in Common is fast becoming a favourite spot to dine in Perth. Owner Nic Trimboli, of Gordon Street Garage, E'cucina, Balthazar, one half of Il Lido and Duende, along with his partner, baker Gotthard Bauer from the famous Yallingup Woodfired Bakery, certainly know what makes a great eatery. It is all about the enjoyment of food and company at Bread in Common.

Melbourne is one of those cities that is a pleasure to be lost in. When you are lost in the laneways of the CBD, you come across hidden gems you normally would not find. On the other hand, Melbourne is a city that has so much on offer that it's best to have a list of things to eat, see and do.
