"The big white fluffy thing"
Opera House | Sydney | Australia | 2000-11
The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre in the Australian city of Sydney.

"My City to live in Down Under"
Sydney | Australia | 1999
Sydney is the largest and most populous city in Australia. It was starting line of our trip 1999 as well as in 2000. Beneath the wellknown highlights like the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge, Sydney is a place to live. Even during the rush hour at Circular Quay it is less frantic than at a railway station in an average german small town.
