Hello guys, I am Damien, 30yo french, soon in Melbourne, I've spent 7 months in WA which I really enjoyed for its beach, wind and easy going people. But, it's time for me to move as I want to see more of australia. I leave behind me friends and a lovely girl friend (so sad!!). So I'm a bit desorientated and I need a quick socialization. I enjoy spending time in pub after a good kite session or hard day work. My english is still not so good but it's improving. So if you feel please contact : 0405846126
PS : I worked as a baker here in Perth, so any tips in this topic would be welcome!!

This time of the year is stinger season in Melbs. So get a good stinger suit from Any good kite shop.

Ok, thanks for the answer, i'll check this out ! Is the stinger really a problem ?

i shouldn't really reveal this knowledge, but for a fellow kiter i can bend the rules.

drop bears can generally be warded off by applying a thick layer of vegemite over your whole face. this is no guarantee of survival, it just makes the odds a bit better. drop bears are rare in the city though so if you stick to st.kilda you should be ok.

as for melbourne's stingers, there's no secret knowledge, in fact there's nothing you can do but hope and pray. an all year round menace for which there is neither prevention nor cure.

Ok, cool, anything else to know? Sounds terrifying, I don't anderstand why the council doesn't do anything to avoid this plague, like cutting all the trees or distribute free vegemite to all the inhabitants. Does it work with Nutella? Look forward to seeing that!!!
