Sydney, Australia's largest city, is one of the most magnificent and entertaining cities in the world and to be honest, you just need to ‘get in amongst it and go for it’!
Sydney simply exudes that city lifestyle but if it all gets a little much for you, Sydney offers more beaches than you could possibly imagine visiting, from surf beaches to family beaches, to party beaches and even nudist beaches!
Even if you head a little further out of the city itself you can visit stunning scenery in the form of the Blue Mountains and chill out amongst the trees and piano bars.
When travelling to another country it's quite common to miss having things around you that you're used to, especially your favourite food and treats! It can be a real challenge to find things that can adequately replace your favourites from home. Luckily, for Dutch people staying in Sydney, there is a perfect solution for your problems! The Dutch Shop.
Sydney is such a great place to be outdoors, it has great weather and so many open spaces that it often makes you feel like you are miles away from a city. There is no better way to experience Sydney’s outdoors and the Australian lifestyle than with a barbecue by the water in one of Sydney’s parks. Get a couple of friends or fellow travelers, visit the local butcher and the supermarket to get your bbq food of choice, some bread and butter and get your adventure started!
When going to the Blue Mountains you might want a break from the many hikes you can do in the area and venture out a little farther into the west. There are a number of trips you can go for, but if you are looking for a complete change from the stunning and expansive landscape why not go underground? The Jenolan Caves are truly a spectacular sight that will blow your mind.
Whether it's a lazy day on the beach or a place to chill with your friends, Coogee Beach is the place to be. With a long white sandy beach, numerous cafes, bars and restaurants and one of the best beer gardens in Sydney this small suburb has it all.
When I arrived in Coogee and found out my new home was a stones throw from the beach I could not be happier.
If you ask anybody who's planning to come to Australia if they've heard of ''Bondi Beach'' and if they are planning to go there, you'll find that in almost all cases you will get the answer YES!

Luna park is Sydney's iconic amusement park, and is its last remaining amusement fun park. Luna park opened in 1935 and has since become a very important feature of Sydney's Harbour foreshore. Located near the northern pylon of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the face and towers of Luna Park have become iconic to the people of Sydney.
Partying in a bar too ''Normal'' for you?! A partybus not good enough? Well OZ party now has a LIMO BUS, yes you read this correct, a limo bus! WHOOP! Some of the crew from Westend Backpackers Sydney were lucky enough to go on the new limo bus and experience what a night out in a limo bus means.
And boy, we were excited!
There is no better thing in life than hanging around in a park on a lovely sunny day.
It is the perfect way to cure your hangover, catching up with friends or to finally get yourself an Aussie tan! Sydney has loads of beautiful parks. Check out the Top Five Parks you must go to!
