My recent trip to Melbourne was fantastic and I enjoyed catching up with old and new clients and friends. Thank you to everyone that came to see me and made my trip so much fun! I love the Fitzroy area and had a great time tattooing at Tatt Datt on Johnston Street.
Here are a few of my favourite places and spaces to visit in Melbourne:
Morrocan Soup Bar on St Georges Road (I recommend ordering the banquet): Best kai EVER!
Polly's Cocktail Bar on Brunswick Street: Best absinthe, cocktails, decor, and service EVER!
National Gallery of Victoria: Just go there and see for yourself.
St Kilda Sea Baths: Salt water pool, hot pool and an excellent steam room, oh yes.
North Yoga: My new fav yoga studio in North Fitzroy, worth a visit if you're into yoga.
Perfect Potion on Brunswick Street: The most divine oils, herbal potions, skincare, chakra balancing balm, aromatic mists and the like. Gorgeous.
Whilst in Melbourne I got to go check out an awesome cultural documentary called 'Escape to St Croix' about Rastafarianism and reggae culture in St Croix of the Virgin Islands. If you're into reggae, permaculture, sustainable living, rasta culture, gardening, vegetarianism - I totes recommend you watch this documentary.
Without further adieu, here are some flicks of my trip.

This was one of my favourite pieces of the trip, I always love working on thighs.
Kirituhi for a very nice man on his calf.
