Sport and Multiculti in Melbourne
The second largest city of Australia and capital of Victoria is coined by almost 150 different nations. The merging of the cultural nuances generated a uncommon people mixture. This mix lends Melbourne its charm and its individuality.
A further concise characteristic for the city is the sport. Who doesn't know the Tennis Grand Slam tournament of the "Australian Open", the Australian Formel 1 Grand Prix or the Top Riding Event "Melbourne Cup", Football and Cricket are also characteristically for Melbourne, the city which carries also the name "Australia's capital of sport".
For friends of surfing is it unfortunately very difficult to find a suitable Surf spot in direct proximity. Only the Elwood and Middle park of beaches are suitable for Windsurfing or Kite boarding. But who is willing to drive a little bit (max. two hours) will find some great possibilities on Phillip Island, in Mornington, in Peninsula and along the Great Ocean Road. All the areas around Port Phillip Bay and Sorrento are recommended for divers. A highlight for Inline skating fans offers a coastal line from Port Melbourne over St. Kilda to Brighton.
Melbourne offers its inhabitants during the summer time the "summer-Fun-in-the-parks" Festival with free open air concerts and meetings to observe the south of the starry sky. Who doesn't want to be noticeable between the native inhabitants during this time shouldn't forget the picnic basket.
You can find a lot of possibilities to go out in Melbourne. Most of the Nightclubs offer free entrance during the week, on weekends is the entry between A$ 4-12. Particular loved are the Nightclubs Honkytonk, Lounge, Revolver Upstairs and the Metro Nightclub. For friends of Live Music is the Arthouse a must. The entrance is usually free and alternative australian bands play in music styles like Death Metal, Trash and Ska.
It's pretty easy to find a job in Melbourne, because of the big hospitality area there.
