I was excited to come back to Sydney – which felt like coming home at this stage since it’s been over 4 months that I’ve settled in Manly. Winter has now officially started although it pretty much still feels like summer, the main changes being that the nights get chilly and that the sun sets pretty early… (5pm)

Making the most of the early nightsetting Vivid Festival was in full bloom when I got back and the Opera House changing shapes and colours every night was the highlight.
