In North Melbourne

On the corner of Victoria Street and Curzon Street sits Our Community House, a building with simple rectangular windows on both sides. At its very centre is a striking work by Melbourne-based artist Baby Guerrilla: a floating woman, gently suspended in space, holding what appears to be a heart-shaped balloon. I am linking this to…

Window & Mural in Thornbury

This mural was painted by LucyLucy on the wall of Women’s Health in the North in Thornbury. It shows two women and the words Voice, Choice, Power. The message is about women having the power to make their own life choices. I love the vibrant colours that were used. I am linking this to Ludwig’s…

Free Train Weekends in Melbourne

To celebrate the Metro Tunnel opening, public transport is free on weekends (that means trains, trams, buses — all across Victoria) from: 30 Nov 2025 through to 1 February 2026. So Jack and I grabbed the chance. We went down at the Melbourne Central Station and spotted something new. Along the walls are large-scale murals…

Tuesday Streetart: Window Shutters – 111

Rose Lips Shinsaibashi

Spotted this cute hotel by the Dotonbori River in Osaka. It is called Petit Hotel Rose Lips Shinsaibashi . From the outside it looks like a charming place, but upon my research, all are smoking rooms… so definitely not for me to book. I am linking this to Ludwig’s Monday Window Challenge.

Snippets of Tokyo… in Square

When in Japan, it’s totally normal to walk thousands of steps a day. Today was one of those days … lots of walking, a few train rides, and some city exploring. In the afternoon, we grabbed a taxi to Roppongi Hills to check out the exhibits at the Mori Art Museum. Here’s a square shot…

A window in York

In York, autumn has a way of sneaking onto windows—reds, yellows, and oranges catching the light. Makes even a simple walk become somehow magical. From our roadtrip to York, UK in 2023 for Monday Window

A red window in Se do Porto

The Porto Cathedral (or Sé do Porto in Portuguese) is a Roman Catholic church right in the heart of Porto’s old town. It’s one of the city’s oldest and most important buildings. Inside, there’s a red window — small and easy to miss if you’re not paying attention, but very beautiful if you take a…

Monday Window in Moorooduc

MOOROODUC, VICTORIA A window filled with beautiful glass pieces—perhaps the work of a single artist, or maybe a collaborative class project. Who knows… Bushboy (Brian) is this week’s host of Monday Window

Windows of Skyscrapers

For this week’s Monday Window Challenge, I’m sharing some windows from the skyscrapers in Melbourne’s CBD. The mix of glass and steel against the skyline always catches my eye, especially when the sunlight reflects in unexpected ways. Looking up at these towering buildings gives you a whole new perspective of the city.

Wooden Cottage in Glenorchy

Spotted this charming little cottage in Glenorchy, New Zealand —with its rusty old wheel still attached and glass windows with flower boxes spilling over with blooms. The weathered wood, the vintage vibes, and that stunning alpine backdrop make it feel like something straight out of a storybook. This is something really special. And this is…

Palais Theatre Window

The Palais Theatre in St Kilda has been a Melbourne icon since it opened in 1927. Originally built as a cinema, it replaced an earlier venue that burned down. With its grand Art Deco style and seaside location, it quickly became a favourite spot for live shows and concerts. Today, it’s still one of the…

Books at Livraria Lello

One of the most beautiful places to enjoy books is Livraria Lello in Porto, Portugal. Opened in 1906, this historic bookstore is famous for its stunning staircase, stained glass ceiling, and magical atmosphere….

Day Trip to Aoraki/Mount Cook

TRAVEL DIARY: DAY 5 AORAKI/ MOUNT COOK Started the day with coffee and some store-bought bread I’d picked up beforehand—simple, but it did the job. It’s one of those days—drive a bit, hop out to take some photos, walk around, then back in the car. We just followed Google Maps to see what lies ahead….

Portugal Souvenir

I love exploring souvenirs while traveling; it’s a fun way to remember my adventures. However, I sometimes find myself spending on things I don’t really need. There was one item that caught my eye for Monday Window, and while I really liked it, I ultimately decided to pass on the purchase. But here is the…
