Serendip Sanctuary is a wildlife reserve near Lara, about 1 hour from Melbourne and 20 minutes from Geelong. Expect eastern grey kangaroos, emus, wallabies, wetlands packed with birdlife, and a sensory garden celebrating Wadawurrung culture.
Getting there:
• Drive via the Princes Freeway, parking is available on site
• Or take a V/Line train to Lara Station and grab a short taxi/rideshare
Free entry. Easy walking trails. Perfect low-effort day trip from Melbourne. @parksvic
Posting a full, detailed video about this beautiful place I explored recently. Until then, here’s a quick rip! #journeytogether #pokemontcg #pokemonpackopening
Wide open grass, the Maribyrnong River cutting through the park, birds everywhere, and long quiet trails that make you forget you’re only about 45 minutes from the Melbourne CBD.
How to get there by public transport:
🚆 Train to Sunshine Station
🚌 Bus towards Keilor East
🚶 Get down near Brimbank Park and walk in
Total travel time: roughly 40–50 minutes from the CBD
Best time to visit:
🌅 Early morning for cooler weather and more wildlife
🌇 Late afternoon for golden light and quieter trails
📅 Weekdays if you want the park mostly to yourself
Easy to reach and plenty to explore. Save this for your next slow weekend. 🌿
@kodakfilm.reto After months of it being sold out and me looking for it everywhere, I finally got my hands on this. Sooo tiny and nostalgic. Thx for putting me onto this!! @globetrottingheels

Camberwell Sunday Market is one of those places that you would like to experience the same way you’d explore a new city. You walk slowly, observe, and let things reveal themselves. Every stall is filled with objects that have already lived alongside real people. Things that were once part of someone’s daily life, home, or routine.
Even if you don’t plan on buying anything, it’s worth coming here just to wander and take it all in. There’s a quiet sense of history everywhere. You start imagining where these things came from and the lives they were once part of.
And if you do end up buying something, most of it is surprisingly affordable. You’ll find genuine vintage pieces, rare finds, and items that were loved. You’re giving old objects a new home while supporting local vendors who keep this market alive.
It’s a simple way to spend a Sunday.
