I made my way back to Syndey after 5 months of recuperating from being sick at home, this time to officially complete my round the world trip. Anyone who knows me knows I sincerely adore this city. It's a vibrant and stunning city, sparking from every corner on a sunny day. After surviving the 13-14 hour flight, I arrived in Syndey at 8 AM on Sunday, January 10, 2016. I had a small commute on the Sydney metro and made my way to the hostel, Wake Up! Sydney. (Put Link here!!). It was a slightly younger hostel and had a major party vibe. Not really my normal scene, but I was so excited to be back abroad that I figured...yolo. 

Fortunately, the hostel allowed me to check in early, so I got some much-needed sleep at the beginning of the day. I was only spending 2 and a half days in Sydney and didn't want to waste too much time snoozing. So after emerging from my deep slumber, I woke up to meet with my (second) cousin Karan to explore the nooks of Syndey I hadn't seen before. I met with Karan in the Westfield mall area, which is a fully decked out, 6 floors of stores and boutiques. We grabbed some of that famous Australia coffee and started our exploration.
