Ukrainian life in AUSTRALIA

Welcome to my corner!
In this blog, you can see a lot of photos, including illustrated life in Australia, as well as a lot of personal and positive stuff :)

In brief: I’m Olha, 37 years old, moved to Melbourne, Australia, in 2011; since June 2013, I live in Sydney, always open to communication :)
You can read an interview with me here.

I am a permanent makeup artist and tattoo master in Australia and Oceania; you can read more about my work at https://cosmetictattoomelbourne.com.au/. There are always specials for tattooing in other Australian cities and islands.
You can also find me on Facebook :)

In the blog, I ask to observe quite simple rules: I am not interested in negativity in any form or admonitions. And, as practice shows, not everyone knows – the appearance of my models, so please do not discuss.
Everyone can comment on the blog, even unregistered users.
Very grateful to all readers, as sharing beautiful things becomes even more enjoyable!

For those planning to visit the countries of Oceania, it is my pleasure to recommend the tour operator’ Wildlife tour Australia’.
‘Wildlife Tour Australia‘ organises individual and group tours, corporate programmes, and official and symbolic wedding ceremonies in exotic corners of the planet, such as Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, and French Polynesia. Everything is possible with us: descents into active volcanoes, crazy bungee jumps, holidays on uninhabited islands, flights in hot air balloons and jets, glacier trekking, climbing frozen waterfalls, cruises on comfortable yachts, life among the natives, swimming with sharks, elite sea fishing, freeriding in the Southern Alps, diving in the most beautiful places of the Pacific Ocean – and many other madnesses that we call real adventures. And if you get tired of the kaleidoscope of impressions, there will always be snow-white beaches, turquoise sea, the best SPA and cosmetic tattoo complexes and cosy lodges at your service.

AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND

I decided to dilute the dozens of sunny photos in the blog with pictures of cloudy weather in New Zealand because you are probably tired of countless images of blue sky and luxurious beaches)))).

So, today we will take a walk around New Zealand’s largest city, Auckland. Also, as in Australia, the capital of New Zealand is a completely different city (Wellington), and Auckland is the country’s economic capital. It is home to almost a quarter of the country’s total population (1.3 million people)

The city itself is very much to my liking. Very green, cosy… It is regularly included in the top 10 cities in the world for living (by the way, last year, 4 Australian towns were included in the same rating of the top 10, which is pleasing :).
What immediately caught my eye is the incredible similarity between Auckland and Sydney: the tower, the bay, the city structure, even the liner stands in a similar place :) I think you will see the similarities yourself from the photos :)

It was hilarious and surprising to see 1) sheep in the central park)))) 2) cows! in the same park :)))

I don’t remember the names of the observation decks and lookouts, photos of which will be under the catom. If you know the names of those places, it would be appreciated!

By the way, I’ve recently started an instagram account, add me :) I’ll be posting primarily everyday photos and travels there.

PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA

I’ll show you a little bit of photos of the glorious city of Perth, which is in the western part of Australia :)
Perth weather is so harsh that while Sydney residents were already wrapping themselves in coats, it was all +35 in the afternoon in Perth. In autumn. In April.
I was walking around as a tourist and basking in the sun, so I was photographing a wedding in this heat.
The wedding was just gorgeous and kind, and I brought hundreds of beautiful photos from Perth and will share them with you soon :)
In the meantime, here are some photos of the fantastic nature of Western Australia.

So, here are a few words about the city itself.
Perth is quite a young and modern city that is developing quickly. Quite an expensive town (surprisingly, not cheaper than Sydney). I think in about ten years it will be very cool to live here, especially if you’re already good and buy an investment property)
The city itself didn’t like it. There are a lot of construction cranes; everything everywhere is dug up and dug out, and there is nothing much to do in the centre in terms of tourism. (I compare it to Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane).
The city is unrealistically stuffy, there is nothing to breathe (and it’s autumn, I can’t imagine what happens in summer).

On the plus side, I would like to highlight the gorgeous bike lanes throughout the city and parks, which we were happy to take advantage of and explore the city in such a convenient way. Unlike Sydney buses, free buses do not only take you around the city. What personally won me over was Perth’s beaches! All those photos under the catom were taken at most half an hour from the city! And one beach is called City Beach. And the colours are natural! There is such azure-coloured water and the whitest sand! And all within the city limits! While exploring Western Australia’s coastline, I also learned about ways to experience the Great Barrier Reef without getting wet. In Sydney, you have to drive for hours to get to such beaches, so it’s not the same…. So I fell in love with the beauty of the west coast for a long time :) And what sunsets into the ocean!….. mmm
