Today is my first full day in Sydney, Australia.

And in this video, we are going to leave the famous city center and explore a completely different site of Sydney.

Apparently, once you leave the city center, the city starts to feel very different.

So today, I want to take the ferry across the harbor, explore some of Sydney's beachside neighborhoods,

try some local food, and see what the city is like away from all the famous tourist spots.

This is a site of Sydney that most tourists never see.

But Sydney is huge, and i have never been here before

and i have no idea how easy it's going to be

to explore these parts of the city on my own

or what to expect there oh man i don't know where i ended up here

so what is sydney really like beyond the famous city center

and how different will it feel join me and let's find out okay

and we are starting our day here in the famous city center of sydney

which we are going to leave now i'm currently in a park here

and there's a very interesting looking bird here i think i've

never seen this type of bird before looks quite funny with the long mouth

and i don't know why

but for some reason i was also not expecting to see palm trees in the middle of sydney

and yeah in order to leave this city center now i want to take the ferry

so we have to get to the ferry terminal first

which is right next to the opera house

and i think we can take the metro to get there

so let's see how easy it is to use the metro

here as a foreign tourist okay i'm currently in the area

which i explored already in my previous video when i arrived here

and i see a big m over there i think

that is a metro station although i'm not sure

if i can just take any metro from any station to

get to the opera house maybe we have a map here

oh what's going on here looks like somebody is living here

but i just want to have a look at the map here see

if i can figure this out i don't even know where

i am at the moment i think somewhere here martin place maybe

and circular gray that's where i want to go you are here park street huh

it also smells pretty bad here let's see

if there's somebody i can actually talk to that's maybe easier

but i don't see any staff around here i actually think

that from here i can't get to circular crane

because in order to get there like the lines are thinner

than the thick lines okay i think i can't take the metro from this station

but i think there's another metro station like one

or two blocks away from here okay to be honest i am a bit confused now

because i see plenty of metro lines here on google maps exactly where i'm standing now

but i don't see any entrance to a metro station i

am confused maybe there's an entrance in this building right here

let's have a look i was in this building already yesterday in my arrival video

but i actually don't remember

if there was a metro downstairs lower ground town hall station i think

that could be a metro station the sign would match at

least oh it smells extremely delicious here like apple pie

or something similar huh i don't see a metro station here

either maybe i have to go one more down no

that looks like a like a supermarket down there where's the

metro station this is where the nice smell is coming from lüneburger german bakery oh

that is interesting oh

that looks like a like a proper german bakery i am very surprised to see

that ah german britian german bread rolls german bread i really miss

that but yeah i'm not here today to eat german bread we're gonna have australian food later on

but first i need to find the metro station now all right i found it town hall

that looks like the entrance of a huge metro station actually

and yeah do i need to buy a ticket um at

the airport train station i could just tap my card

so i would assume i could do the same here let me figure out

which line i need to take first

because i think there are plenty of lines here

so i need to go to here that's where we want to go circular cray

or key i'm not sure how to pronounce it

so l2 the red one okay let's see

if i can just use my card again oh

that works okay by the way i used this card also in the previous video for the airport train

and until now there was no charge on my credit card

so i actually still don't know how much i paid oh

man this is confusing what did i say l2 red how

do i know where is l2 red ah i see some lines right here

but not l2 red so where's l2 red i have to say it always surprises me

that in every western country the lack of service staff around like

if you're traveling in asia and basically every asian country there's always

so much stuff around to ask but here i don't see anyone working here

so traveling in western country requires a bit more being proactive

yourself you know same over there i don't see l2 red

okay now i'm confused i walked through the whole station now

and i haven't seen a single sign with the red l2

line oh it's actually not even on the on the signs

here anymore ah here we go again ken abroad getting lost

in metro stations nothing new on this channel right excuse me

do you work here yes I'm trying to get to the

opera house with platform six on the right two stops circular key but from six on the right

okay sounds easy thank you okay not from six on the right side

but that is not the line I had a mind

but okay let's trust this guy and see

if we end up at the right place oh yes yes the station as well circular train 48 works as well, it seems like.

Alright, and here is the train already.

Literally a minute later, I would say it looks identical to the train I took from the airport to get here.

Maybe these are just the regular metro trains here in the city.

Alright, let's get onto the train.

So we have two floors here even.

The upper and the lower floor.

Oh, and check it out.

We have like single seats here almost.

100

Two seats facing each other.

101

And the guy said, I think two stations, right?

102

And literally five minutes later and we have arrived.

103

And by the way, the voice says circular key

104

so i think i was pronouncing it wrong the whole time actually all right

105

and here we are and yeah i'm not sure

106

if every metro train in sydney looks like this this looks more

107

and feels more like a proper train but very nice very clean comfortable

108

and yeah now just tap in the card again

109

and now i'm out

110

but still have no idea how much i paid for it

111

right now there's only one charge on my credit card of one australian dollar

112

but i'm pretty sure that can't be the cost of the ride so

113

if you're from sydney please let me know in the comments

114

how much you have to pay to use the metro

115

and i'm still wondering

116

if i can still see a charge at some point in

117

the next hours on my credit card anyway we are at the wharf area now

118

so i think there are different stations basically wharf 4 wharf 3

119

and so on

120

and yeah i want to take the ferry now to a completely different part of sydney

121

which is called manly and

122

that part has been recommended to me by sydney locals actually by several locals

123

so i think it is a popular spot

124

or it is a known spot for the locals

125

but yeah most of the tourists who are coming to sydney

126

they stay in this area the city center we have the

127

opera house right behind here i'm curious to see a more

128

local side of the city oh that's actually a signboard here

129

which wharf um oh i don't see oh there's manly traveling to manly at wharf number three

130

which wharf is this is this number three ah it is number three okay

131

so how do i get a ticket then maybe i can

132

ask for help here excuse me hello yes i'm trying to

133

get to manly yeah next to me the man in black the man in black yeah okay

134

so this is the right uh yeah yeah okay thank you

135

all right he said meet the man in black right do

136

i just need to tap here again hi i'm trying to get to manly yep this is the right spot

137

so i just need to tap the ticket yep

138

and how much is it so

139

if you tap your credit card it will be only 9 .65 all day round two

140

and if i want to get back it's the same ferry back to here yeah you can stay on board

141

or you can jump oh yeah i wanna i wanna leave in manly yeah

142

so i can leave there yeah yeah every half an hour okay

143

so the next one is in seven minutes how many minutes

144

does it take to manly 25 25 minutes okay all right

145

then let's tap the card again actually a very easy system

146

if you just can tap your credit card everywhere you don't

147

need to buy like physical paper tickets you know all right

148

and we're boarding the ferry and yes i'm really on the right one let's see

149

if we can maybe sit outside i think

150

that would be even better maybe in the end even we can go upstairs i think

151

that is great it's a very sunny and cool day

152

so why not sit outside maybe i'm just going to sit right here

153

and then we're gonna have a beautiful view to this area once we depart the harbour

154

and yeah why i want to leave the city center

155

so i watched a few youtube videos about sydney before i

156

came here i skipped through a few of the videos

157

that were made here and all of the videos

158

that i saw all showed the same area the area around

159

the opera house here the city center i'm always curious to

160

also look behind the famous city centers see a more local side of the city

161

so today i'm trying to find out how is sydney in the local areas beyond the famous city center

162

and that's why i'm so curious to explore manly today

163

so yeah now you can see the city center behind us

164

and we also have a huge cruise ship on the right

165

side i actually have never been on a cruise before

166

and i thought about going on one to film a video about it

167

but i'm not sure if will be interesting content for you

168

so maybe let me know in the comments

169

and yeah this view is now quite symbolic for this video

170

because we are literally leaving the famous area of sydney behind us now and we're heading to another area around there

171

okay and to show you the journey on the map

172

so the opera house right here

173

and then we are cruising through the bay basically to manly up here so

174

that is the journey on the map on this side here i think over there we have the open ocean

175

so if you sail out of the bay here then yeah the whole world is in front of you basically

176

and it's actually pretty windy up here

177

and a bit shaky to walk around all right

178

and i think we have arrived i think the pier is over there

179

and yeah this is the manly area we also have quite a few small boats parking here in the bay

180

and i do think

181

that sydney has quite a few of smaller base similar like this spread around the whole area so

182

if you have a look at sydney on google maps for

183

example you can see a little base like this all around basically

184

and yeah that was a lovely 20 minute ferry ride to get here okay

185

and here we are back on land okay

186

so no tap off needed on this service i understand that as i I don't have to tap my credit card again.

187

So yeah, for total, what did he say? think nine dollar you get a 20 25 minute ferry ride

188

that was actually quite enjoyable with a nice breeze in my face nice views okay

189

and here we are now in manly

190

and yeah i have two specific places in mind now

191

that i would like to see the first one is the manly beach

192

which i think is on the other side

193

so i have to walk a few blocks to get there

194

and then the second place is a nice viewpoint from where i think we can even see the city center

195

and the skyline

196

and along the way i also like to try some food oh yeah here we have a map actually

197

so you are here

198

and then the manly beach is right here i think the viewpoint is somewhere up here

199

and i think there's like a pedestrian walking street

200

that we can walk along now

201

and yeah i also want to explore around the residential areas

202

a bit to get a feeling for what it must be

203

like to live in this area look at this bird right here

204

that looks like a almost like a chicken like a large chicken

205

so funny in australia you just have random large birds walking around similar to the one

206

that we saw at the beginning of the video you know what would be cool

207

but i think quite impossible to see a kangaroo i mean probably the most famous animal from australia

208

but i doubt that you can see them just hopping around sydney okay

209

so this is what the walking street here is looking like very beautiful with the trees

210

and i can see a glimpse of the ocean already in the background

211

and yeah it's definitely not a quiet area

212

but as far as i can judge

213

that i don't hear like many foreign tourists around here like

214

in city center you hear all these languages from all around the world you don't hear

215

that here so i think this is an area

216

which is popular for locals but not necessarily for foreign tourists who are visiting sydney

217

and there's actually a frozen yogurt shop here called yochi

218

and i have been told this is a very famous

219

and popular frozen yogurt store here in australia the owners are also from australia

220

so let's check it out i'm curious to give it a try okay

221

so this is what it's looking light very old here oh there's a long line here

222

and i think it's like a self -service store

223

so i think you can choose your own toppings here as far as i can judge

224

that insert hands below for magic powers are basically sanitizing the hands okay

225

and then yeah i think you have to choose your flavor you basically put it in the cup yourself

226

and then you can top it off with whatever makes you happy

227

and then weigh and pay okay we have eight different flavors vanilla Strawberry, Acai, Mango, Chokie, Coconut, Raspberry, Signature Tart, and Salted Fattah Scotch.

228

I'm difficult to choose.

229

I think I'm gonna take the Strawberry, Raspberry one, maybe also the Signature Tart, I think you can mix them.

230

Do you want to try any flavors?

231

Alright, it's my first time here, I have no idea about the flavors.

232

You can either bring a bowl or a cone, and then put any of the flavors on, and then you can...

233

And I can mix, right?

234

Yep, you can mix any of them, and then put toppings on.

235

It's all from waist by waist, so every 100 grams is $4.

236

Okay, cool.

237

Alright, so I think I'm choosing the cup here.

238

I can try first.

239

The coconut and the signature.

240

So you can get a small cup to try first.

241

Okay, thank you.

242

This one is the coconut.

243

The signature part is not really my taste.

244

Very buttery.

245

The coconut rest of the one is very nice.

246

I'm gonna take this one.

247

Ah, look at this.

248

Alright.

249

So I think what you wanna do is you wanna leave some space

250

because look at all the toppings here I think the toppings

251

are a major part of the experience here oh yes different nuts here oh we have cookie dough

252

that sounds delicious that is the first one I must try

253

and we have some fresh fruits as well let's also get some strawberries

254

and then we have candies we have M &M's we have Oreos coconut flakes chocolate chips

255

and i definitely also want to get sprinkles reminds me of my childhood

256

and here buttery mix of oats and cinnamon i love cinnamon i also love oats

257

and then we have different types of sauce here

258

and i see a brownie as well

259

and the dubai trend is also here in australia i don't want any of the sauce in this one

260

okay thank you okay so this is the bowl i'm having here we have the base

261

and then loads of toppings on top of it let me try the brownie actually first oh

262

and what a nice view with the palm tree behind us

263

the blue sky let's give it a bite the brownie is still warm

264

and super soft and such a nice flavor

265

and you know maybe let me get a big bite with

266

a lot of different flavors a lot of different toppings here we go the base

267

that i have the coconut raspberry is already very delicious just on its own

268

and then including all the the toppings

269

that i have the m &ms the sprinkles the the cinnamon oat crumble very nice

270

and now let me try the cookie dough

271

when i was younger my mom and me always enjoyed ben

272

and jerry's cookie dough ice cream maybe some of you know

273

that one that was our favorite ice cream when i was a child so cookie dough is always very nice

274

oh yeah you know what it reminds me of

275

when i was younger as well my mom

276

and me we used to do like baking like christmas cookies you know

277

and then i always like to eat the dough before we made the cookies you know

278

and just eating the cookie dough here reminds me really of childhood memories baking cookies with my mom

279

and then just eating the dough already oh very very nice i think i can understand why this is

280

so loved here by the locals and yeah it is a chain locally owned

281

so this is very delicious and was worth the money okay so

282

that was a great little sweet treatment i need to be

283

careful not to accidentally step into these mini water fountains here

284

but i'm also gonna have a proper meal later on

285

and i have to say i really love how colorful everything

286

is here like every building basically has a different color

287

and then the whole time all these beautiful palm trees around here

288

and overall i can also say it's a nice vibe here so far

289

so i'm having good first impressions yeah as you could see

290

i have been using my wise card all day already

291

and this card actually helps me to save money on my trips let me explain you how

292

so you can also save money so this is actually something

293

that most people don't even know about but

294

if you are traveling to a country

295

that has a different currency than your home country

296

and then you are using your local bank card from home many traditional banks charge hidden fees

297

and offer worse exchange rates compared to wise

298

because your home currency has to be converted into the local currency of the country you're visiting

299

and in most cases there's going to be a fee for

300

that and the conversion rates are usually not in your favor

301

and they can really add up over time especially

302

if you use your card a lot when you're traveling so

303

and in order to avoid that i am using my rice account

304

because with rice i can hold multiple currencies in one account

305

so i can easily convert my home currency

306

which in this case is the euro to different currencies within the rice app very quick

307

and easily it usually just takes a few seconds

308

so what i always do before every trip i convert some

309

euros into the local currency of the country i'm visiting

310

and then i can spend that local currency every single time i'm using my wise card

311

so that i don't have to pay a fee every time i use my card

312

and yeah setting up an account with wise is straightforward simple

313

and wise is very transparent you always see the fees in advance

314

so you know what you're paying and Weiss converts your money with the actual mid -market rate.

315

So if you are traveling and or paying internationally, I can highly recommend to get a Weiss account as well.

316

And if you use my link in the description or in the pinned comment, you can get a fee -free transfer on Weiss up to 500 Euro or a free card if you're new.

317

Just click the link down below and save money with Weiss on your next trip.

318

Okay, but before we're having more food, let's actually have a look at the beach and check this out.

319

Hotel Steyn, 1859.

320

1859 this must be a very historic old hotel or can you imagine people already staying here in

321

1859 that is incredible i wonder what the area was like back then all right

322

and here we have the beach something

323

that australia is very famous for its beaches

324

and this is quite a nice one it's very large actually much longer than i would have expected

325

so quite a long beachfront right here

326

and i also see people over there playing volleyball there are several volleyball fields

327

and over there i also see people surfing

328

that is probably a very australian thing to see people surfing

329

i mean australia is very known for surfing i think they

330

have plenty of great surfing spots all around the country

331

but wow i could not imagine going into

332

that water right now it is on the edge of being

333

too cold to walk around here with a t -shirt i would guess the water is definitely too cold

334

but i can see

335

that all of the surfers are wearing like uh wetsuits for good reasons i think

336

but yeah i think

337

when you grow up in sydney you you are growing up

338

being surrounded by beaches like said earlier there are plenty of beaches basically all around the city

339

so no matter where in sydney you live the beach probably is never far away

340

and if you are from sydney please let me know in the comments

341

if that's right is it like a very normal every weekend

342

activity like going to the beach going surfing hanging out by the beach

343

because i could imagine

344

if you're growing up here it is okay i found this sign here top 10 things to do in manly

345

and yeah as you can see there are lots of things

346

to do in this area here seems like you can even

347

go snorkeling at shelley beach i think some of the beaches

348

all around australia also are really known for snorkeling you can see a plenty of beautiful fish

349

and also like huge ones like sharks in some areas in australia

350

so that is actually something that the country is known for

351

but to be honest i was not expecting

352

that you can go snorkeling also like right in sydney

353

but there's actually something that i noticed which this beach doesn't have

354

which many beaches or i would say every beach in asia for example has and

355

that is street vendors like people walking around the beaches oh

356

all these birds here people walking around the beach like selling drinks selling fresh fruits

357

or little snacks you know and that would be actually something very nice here

358

but i don't see street vendors or street food cards at all here

359

so maybe that just isn't a thing here in australia so

360

if you want to have a snack

361

or drink something you always have to go back to the shops here okay

362

so i am a few blocks away from the beach now

363

and i think this is like it typical residential neighborhood very

364

beautiful houses here though there's also a church here australia is a predominantly christian country

365

so you have churches like this actually a lot i saw

366

plenty of them already at different locations in the city

367

and yeah i could imagine that living here is very quiet peaceful

368

and beautiful i mean the beach is just a few blocks away

369

but i think no matter where in sydney you live the beach is always

370

or a beach is always not far away

371

and maybe this a weird comparison

372

but in some ways the area around here reminds me of

373

the area around the miami beach maybe you saw my video from there

374

and then maybe you remember

375

when i was walking towards the famous miami beach the area

376

around there was also a residential area very posh residential area though

377

but similar vibes like here i would say

378

and yeah this is also a very cool area now

379

so i think these are all condo buildings here so residential buildings

380

and then if you have your apartment on this side

381

or the balcony you are straight looking to the beach

382

and the ocean over there very nice i would be curious what the prices in this area are like

383

if anyone of you watching knows about

384

that i would like to know how much is the rent

385

per month in one of these apartments here i would guess

386

it's probably on the pricier side of rents in sydney

387

but i could be also wrong i don't really know

388

and also here look at these birds over there looks like like exotic parrots it's

389

so funny what type of birds you see in sydney like this is the type of bird

390

that in my country germany you could only see in the zoo like exotic birds in a zoo

391

and here they are just chilling by the beach so funny oh

392

so beautiful birds as well

393

and they don't seem to be shy of humans at all

394

like look how close i can get to them have a look at that hello hello

395

i wonder what they're searching for maybe some some ducks

396

that they're trying to dig out

397

and then eat maybe something is falling off the tree

398

that they can eat okay now let's get a proper meal here

399

so there's manly ocean foods right across the beach

400

and yeah i want to try fish and chips

401

which i heard is very popular here in sydney so let's give it a try fresh and cooked seafood since

402

1959 so sounds like a place that has been around for a

403

while okay so it's literally only fishy of course

404

and also calamari i see here salmon octopus we even have a burger with fish maybe popcorn fish

405

and chips that sounds like a small snack or the classical one fish

406

and chips hi hello i would like the classical fish

407

and chips the better one yeah no no sauce no okay okay

408

and then you're gonna call the number yeah okay thank you all right

409

so 19 australian dollar for fish and chips i don't know

410

if that is expensive or not i could imagine the price is a bit higher here

411

because we are literally right in front of the beach all

412

right i picked up the food let me find a spot

413

now to sit down i think i can right over there all right

414

so this looks like a lovely place i think i have to be careful though of the seagulls here

415

because they will be very curious i think to steal my

416

french fries no yeah i actually just met some locals

417

and they told me that this shop is actually very famous

418

and well known all right and this is what it's looking like

419

and it actually looks like a huge portion

420

so we have two pieces of fish right here

421

and then a lot of rice underneath

422

and i think the first thing i need to do is squeeze the lemon over it

423

so right here and look at the view in front of me

424

that looks beautiful right the beach right over there the palm trees what a nice place to enjoy fish

425

and chips okay to be honest though i would usually associate fish

426

and chips more with the uk however

427

when i googled about the must try foods here in sydney this was on basically every list

428

so let me start with the french fries look they're actually

429

very thick i like thick fries like this much more than the small

430

and thin ones and they are very good also a lot of salt around it

431

but yeah now the main thing the fish

432

so this is the small piece right here let's try

433

that one first to be honest

434

if you know my videos you know i don't eat seafood often i'm not a huge seafood lover

435

but battered fish like this is actually quite delicious i think

436

out of all the seafoods this is one of my favorites

437

and yeah it tastes very light not heavy at all the

438

flavor of the fish itself is very good it also doesn't taste oily sometimes

439

when you eat like deep fried fish like this it tastes very oily

440

but that's not the case here

441

so i think this is a great meal especially with this view with this location

442

so let me finish this meal

443

and then we are also heading to this viewpoint from where

444

we can have a beautiful view over the city okay before

445

we're heading to the viewpoint i actually also want to find this one a finger bun

446

which several locals already now have recommended to me

447

and i have heard that basically every bakery sells these

448

so let's see if we can find a bakery

449

and give it a try okay i'm inside a side alley now

450

and there's the bakehouse here that should be a bakery right do i see it already

451

this looks similar as far as i can judge it

452

but not exactly the same i think oh they also extremely

453

good -looking cookies right here cookie boxes what is this me

454

ring i never heard this word before i don't know what it is

455

and lots and lots of cookies here

456

but i don't see any finger buns here hi do you have finger buns now this one is finger bun

457

but you don't sell them in single pieces i think this it is

458

but uh four pieces it's too much hi i'm ken yeah

459

that's me right can we get a photo nice to meet

460

you hello i'm just trying to eat a finger bun i

461

heard it's very popular do you want one are you sure yeah

462

because it's four pieces

463

and i only need one do you want one okay then

464

i get all four how much is it okay yeah then

465

we can share one finger bun for for everyone just tap

466

here yeah all right thank you very much are you from sydney yes yeah

467

so this is something that i have to try i was told is that right yeah i never tried it before

468

Not yet.

469

No. It's so funny.

470

Everyone asked me about my haircuts.

471

So, um, are these always looking like this or do they come with different toppings or flavors?

472

You can also get like sprinkles.

473

But this one's the most popular.

474

So it's basically just like a milk bun and then with sweet toppings.

475

Yeah.

476

Okay.

477

You're free.

478

Go ahead.

479

Okay.

480

I'll just get a bun.

481

I'll get the last one then.

482

So I guess it's gonna be very sweet.

483

Yeah.

484

Alright, so the famous Australian finger bun.

485

Okay, cheers guys.

486

What are your names?

487

Jonathan.

488

Jonathan or Max.

489

I'm Jamie.

490

Jamie.

491

Okay, nice to meet you.

492

Let's give it a try.

493

It's very sweet, yeah.

494

Very sweet.

495

And this cream, I can't really identify the flavor.

496

What do you think is the flavor?

497

It's got coconut on top.

498

Yeah, there's coconut on top as well.

499

Maybe strawberry, strawberry coconut.

500

But the bun itself is also already sweet, right?

501

But I would say it.

502

I can imagine, oh, I can see why this is so popular here.

503

It's a great snack, especially for children, I think.

504

But also as an adult, I can enjoy this.

505

And yeah, we do have a bus station here.

506

And I have been told that i can take the bus to this viewpoint

507

and i just spoke with some locals again and they told me

508

if i have a look on google maps i can actually

509

see the bus numbers bus 161 leaves in six minutes

510

and they told me it's leaving from the bus station right there

511

so that is actually good to know that

512

if i choose my destination on google maps google maps tells me even the bus number to take

513

so that makes it a pretty easy to use then

514

because yeah that viewpoint is a bit far to walk it would be like a 45 minute walk

515

so i think the bus should leave from here then let

516

me just uh oh i don't know how to uh read

517

this timetable to be honest i don't really know 161 42

518

but on google maps it says 40 but it also says though

519

that i have to still walk 15 minutes

520

so i think it doesn't i add the bus will drop me off here

521

and then we have to walk the rest

522

but i think that's okay okay the buses are running late

523

and i just heard that the bus is actually quite unreliable

524

so it happens often that the bus doesn't uh arrive on time they should be the last but it's like 7 42. so

525

if there's something to like wait for the next one that's

526

nice maybe there's another one coming in like what did you say 16 minutes

527

or so yeah yeah it should be okay

528

yeah she also just said

529

that she's worried it's going to rain we do have some dark looking clouds around us

530

that would ruin the the plans of seeing the the viewpoint

531

to be honest okay according to google maps the next one is coming at six

532

that would be in 13 minutes by now all right there's

533

161 coming a bit delayed though hi i would like to go to north hatch the viewpoint

534

no but according to the locals this is the right bus the wrong timing where are you going then

535

halfway yeah okay i will still take the bus

536

and then i see do i pay with my card just tap here

537

yeah yeah yeah so what is your last stop

538

station okay and then I figure out from there he said not not all the way

539

but I have to leave earlier okay that's okay all right

540

so seems like same in Germany the buses are not really punctual

541

or maybe I'm just having bad luck now

542

but yeah let's see where this bus stops

543

and then how I can get from there to the actual viewpoint maybe i will switch to an uber then

544

but yeah overall i have to say the bus looks

545

and feels very similar to the buses i'm used to in my own country germany

546

so there's probably not a huge difference

547

and yeah i think we have missed the sunset already

548

but maybe we can see a beautiful night view of the skyline then from the lookout

549

and yet to show you the journey on the map

550

so we are here now in manly

551

and i want to get to the viewpoint right here

552

so according to google maps the last station is right here

553

and then here i have to walk the rest of the

554

way yeah we are cruising through the residential areas now

555

and i'm a bit surprised how hilly it is here

556

so the area around manly seems to be quite hilly

557

and we have many of little roads here

558

and there with a lot of beautiful looking houses as well

559

the road goes through a lot of bush yeah it was

560

nice to meet you yeah okay do you need help to

561

get out here i help you i get this out let me get out first

562

and then i'll help you get out okay thank you

563

here we go okay thank you okay have a good trip

564

home yeah okay thank you bye -bye she was actually a

565

lovely old lady she talked to me the whole time i was sitting at the bus station

566

and she actually reminded me a lot of my own grandma

567

not too far 15 15 okay maybe 20 yeah okay let's see okay thank very much all right

568

so i feel like we are now in the middle of nowhere i'm not sure

569

if it was such a good idea to take the bus instead of an uber

570

which i think can actually take me all the way to

571

the viewpoint yeah most is a good idea i don't know

572

and in case you're wondering why i didn't just take an

573

uber you know i often like to try out local transportation

574

and see how it is to travel around the city like

575

a local that's why i often like to take metros

576

or buses ferries but yeah let's find out

577

if it was a good idea to still come to this viewpoint i hope though

578

so i don't know if you can see it

579

but in the distance i can still see a glimpse of the sun of sunlight

580

so maybe that will give us like a nice after sunset view

581

and i'm hoping to see like a nice skyline view in the night now

582

but which way do i have to go q station this way

583

or this road by the way i just realized it looks

584

way brighter on the camera than it does in reality like this camera has like a night mode

585

so it looks brighter than it actually is right here oh no i think i have to take

586

that right here

587

so yeah according to my google maps it's a 12 minute

588

walk now oh man this is literally a dark road now

589

huh okay it's six o 'clock it's not like in the middle of the night now

590

but it does feel a bit sketchy to walk here now

591

to be honest it's literally a dark road in front of me what am i doing here

592

so i really hope this viewpoint is worth it

593

and it's also getting quite uh chilly here now i should have brought a jacket to be honest oh man

594

and i definitely have some animals here in the bushes do they have dangerous animals here like bears

595

or something like that

596

but there's somebody coming with a flashlight maybe i can ask

597

them how long it is still to walk excuse me hi

598

i'm looking i'm trying to find the viewpoint right at the

599

end you're quite far away is it worth it at this

600

time uh probably not i'm not gonna lie i can see

601

the city the skyline okay it's not a dangerous area

602

or something like

603

that just be careful of the cars of the cars okay 10 minutes okay okay thanks a lot all right

604

so at least i didn't say anything about dangerous animals i

605

think i'm going to start walking a bit faster now

606

because i'm literally getting really cold now

607

and it's crazy how fast the sunlight disappears here like literally half an hour ago it was still very bright

608

and now i feel like i'm watching through the pitch dark night

609

and i really really hope

610

that i will be able to get an uber from there back to the city it's very quiet here now

611

and very cold now actually it calms me down to keep

612

talking to you feels like i'm here with somebody you know

613

i'm not being completely on my own in the middle of nowhere

614

but yeah to be honest i should have taken an uber

615

the bus was not a good idea oh man look at

616

the moon this is one of the brightest moons i have ever seen

617

and it seems to be full moon as well

618

that is actually super cool okay i'm using my light from the phone now

619

because without the light it's literally pitch pitch black

620

but the moon looks like almost the sun right but

621

that is actually the moon yeah i really really hope

622

that this viewpoint is worth it i'm actually also quite curious now to see it

623

and according to google maps it's another four minutes come on look at

624

that there's another bus stop here and it says number 169

625

so why didn't the bus drop me off here then

626

but i think that's what he meant

627

when i got into the bus right he said something about he's not going there anymore

628

but i think i do see some civilization again i think

629

there's a house here let's have a look at the sign here lookout toilets car park fairfax walk

630

so i think we're gonna go to look out 700 more meters sydney harbor national park all right okay

631

and i made it to the viewpoint

632

and yes i can see the skyline from here it looks pretty nice but was

633

that worth walking here in the cold i feel very cold

634

now to be honest i am not really sure about

635

that to be honest i could imagine though

636

that you actually can see a beautiful sunset from here

637

so i should have came here like an hour earlier i think

638

but that's how it goes sometimes not everything goes as planned on these travel days never let

639

that ruin your mood not everything has to go as planned

640

and it was a very enjoyable day i'm really happy

641

that i came to this side of sydney i mean

642

when you arrive here as a tourist you also have to see the famous city center the opera house etc

643

so i'm also happy that i did see that yesterday

644

when i arrived here which i showed you in the previous video

645

but now i'm also happy

646

that i saw this less touristy side of the city anyway i really hope

647

that i will be able to get an uber here now

648

and then in the next episode we're actually traveling to another

649

country it's gonna be a very very cool one it has

650

been on my bucket list for many many years already

651

so stay tuned for the next episode feel free to subscribe to the channel

652

if you haven't yet to follow the journey and

653

if you haven't seen my previous video arriving here in sydney getting my very first impressions

654

and feel free to check out the video right here go see the world yourself take care

655

and until next time all right and yes i am able to get an uber here yes right

656

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
