Golden Age-childhood

Search your Childhood



Childhood is the golden age of human life. This age is carefree, no liabilities, no burdens nothing only enjoyment. When this age passes, it turns everyone’s dream to get the childhood once again.


It is true that a child is present in every person and whenever a person gets the opportunity he reveals his hidden childhood. You can enjoy your childhood whenever you get the chance. It is not possible to be cheerful always because we all molded and well shaped in same pattern and sheathed ourselves all around. We don’t want to remove it. Due to it neither we dance nor do we sing. We don’t express our feelings fully. If we want to enjoy the childhood once again, we have to bring down the mask of gentle manliness and keep aside the knowledge and gravity, and become silly for sometime. Truly we don’t have to loose anything what can we loose as become joyous.

We are not the same as we are joyous, so be a child for sometime be in yourself looks like a fool or a silly person or whatever the world understands you, don’t bother about it.

Be a Melbournian ...



Melbourne: An untold story.   




Life is a Journey-It is a well known quote about life. In the busy and hectic life schedule, where work is the only motto and motive of life and everyone becomes the part of rat race. Everyone is running aimlessly not to reach any where- this turns the life stressful and tiring. Now the question is- How to ease the stress...? Traveling to new places, explore new destination and meeting people there are some good tonics for a stressful life. Exploring new destination in a foreign trip is becoming popular in the Indian Subcontinent and fortunately Indi Blogger is getting this chance through "Melbourne Now Contest".


"Melbourne Now Contest" knocks at the doorstep of my thought and it also gives me a random thought too. If I would win this contest, what would I like to bring back the experiences from that city...? So, it is the show time... Now I am on an Imaginary and Virtual visit to Melbourne....Hey...! But wait; without any information, it isn't possible to travel. Yes I can make my journey easy and possible if I gather information from http://www.visitmelbourne.com/in.

Melbourne’s most attractive sites- Otway Fly Treetop Adventures, Melbourne Museum, Federation Square, Melbourne Cricket Ground, Old Melbourne Gaol Crime and Justice Experience, Eureka Sky deck 88, Werribee Open Range Zoo, Crown Entertainment Complexes, Healesville Sanctuary, Science Works, Melbourne Aquarium, Queen Victoria Market, Puffing Billy Steam Railway, Werribee Mansion, Sovereign Hill, Flagstaff Hill Maritime Village, Gum San Chinese Heritage Centre, National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne Zoo and Central Deborah Gold Mine and many more. 

The heritage buildings like Werribee Mansion, Como House and Garden, Royal Exhibition Building, Old Melbourne Gaol Crime and Justice Experience, Shrine of Remembrance,

While gathering the information the suggestive sight scene that attracts a passionate nature lover and adventurer like me is Otway Fly Treetop Adventures-One Location two adventures. Located in Victoria's magnificent Otways providing visitors with a unique opportunity to view the forest from a bird's eye view through its two unique Eco-adventure experiences, the famous Tree Top walk and Zip Line tour. You can also experience the tree top walk -that is the longest and tallest elevated walk of its own king in the world.


Otway Fly Treetop Adventures


Melbourne isn't empty at any point in natural scene sights. Lavish parks, gardens and waterways are just like the beauty spots of Melbourne. Nature Lovers feel at home in the greenery of Melbourne and its surroundings. I have no words if I would experience all these.

Beyond Melbourne- Great Southern Touring Route, Yarra Valley And Dandenong Ranges, Great Ocean Walk, Great Ocean Road, Phillip Island, Skiing, Southern East touring route, Mornington Peninsula and other attractive thing like -food and drink, spa, family activities and many more activities that a tourist likes.

 I was thrilled and excited, thinking that this might be my one of the memorable foreign tours. Once again I would have a chance to meet new people and would have new friendship. But one thing is disturbing me- what was happened in Australia in last couple of years with Indians and the whole world witnessed it through TV Channels and News papers…Indians were attacked and killed in different parts of Australia. That was done in the name of racial hatred or it was something else-It is still a question mark. So I have in my mind-visit or not to visit Melbourne. Would it be unsafe to visit there...?? It was really unfortunate –but I should go there; otherwise I wouldn’t over come my fear, in this way I would understand the situation in a better way there. My real motive of this visit is to create a cultural bridge between the people of both countries and erase the bad memories- what had happened within last couple of years in Australia. I would like to meet the aboriginals of Australia- who are the representative of original Australian culture and heritage. So what do you say…??
