I know a lot of you are sick of hearing me say this, but it’s true: every single day since I came home to New York City, I’ve wanted to go back to Melbourne. I don’t mean that in a resentful tone; I love New York, but a part of me just really misses Melbourne.

And since I’m here and not there, my best way to stay connected to the city is through several Melbourne-based photoblogs, one of which is Melbourne Today which posts at least one photo of Melbourne a day.

I love that I can recognize places I’ve been to and areas that I’ve passed by so many times. It really feels like I’m not missing out as much when I look at these photos. But of course, actually being there would be a heck of a lot better.
