We do love winter

There are no more than two weeks left of the winter season. Should I say: “Lets enjoy these few days of winter, going out in our jumpers, drinking mulled wine, and looking for heaters around Melbourne”? We sure will.

I used to say the winter in Melbourne starts pretty much in May (when I start to feel cold). This is great, because there are a few months more to have all the excuses to buy beautiful coats, nice boots, many different scarfs, etc, etc, and etc. In May it’s already time to be all dressed up, and face the cold weather when going out with friends.

And I am such a Melbourne lover. Who isn’t?

One thing I would  like to try, but haven’t yet, are the tram restaurants. Have you tried? It must be so nice to have dinner while the tram is going around the city. I enjoy just watching it pass by.

But, as everyone can feel it this year, Melbourne’s climate it’s already putting smiles on our faces. The sun is frequently shinning and giving us marvellous “warm” days.

I’m so looking forward for Summer, but I’m also enjoying the winter this year. I might say that I’m getting used to Melbourne’s weather. I don’t know about world climate changes, but it feels like is not that cold like it was last year. Or maybe it’s only me that’s definitely getting used to it.

One thing I can tell you for sure: Melbourne has beautiful and outstanding views in every season. And even though I’ve been living here for one year and a half, I often catch myself delighted with this:
