A Weekend in Sydney: Everything You Need to Do, Sydney, Australia (B)

I’ve been dreaming about visiting Sydney, Australia for as long as I can remember! The first bucket list I ever wrote as a kid had “go to Australia and pet a kangaroo” on it. So when I had the opportunity to spend a weekend in Sydney, I was so excited!

After making a long must-see list, asking all of my friends who have lived there what to do, and finding the best things to do over a weekend in Sydney, here is a list of my favorites!

I have been to more than my fair share of hostels, and Sydney Harbour YHA was by far the nicest one I have ever been to! The staff was incredibly friendly, happy to answer the questions that we had about the city, and recommended some unique spots for us to explore. Our room was more like a nice hotel room than a hostel room and we even had a view of the Opera House out of our window! I couldn’t ask for a better view! The hostel held fun events every evening; our favorite was wine and cheese night on the rooftop! Free wine, the sunset, and a view of the city are the best ways to make me happy. I would highly recommend this hostel for a feeling of luxury on a budget! ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
