The Sydney suburb full of trendy young people. Surry Hills, as described by the Airbnb neighborhood guide: "Cool places and cooler people comprise one of Sydney's coolest neighborhoods." The streets are lined with cafes, each creatively competing to be more unique than the one next door. Boutiques full of knick knacks and perfectly disarrayed decor. The nightlife consists mostly of speakeasy-themed bars or converted warehouses.

Luckily this is our first week that we have a car, because the coast here is lined with point after point and each miniature bay/cove is another cute town, upon another cute town…Our first day in Avoca, we drove to Terrigal (roughly 3 miles north).

The beaches are picturesque here. The Cabarita Hill is a lush green, meeting the white sands lined with black rocks all adjacent to the vivid turquoise ocean with crystal water. The colors are insane, comparable to Hawaii. Perhaps better.
