I'm planning a year working holiday in Australia and definitely want to spend it in either Melbourne or Sydney... but I'm having some trouble deciding between the two. I currently live in Boston and really like the compact urban setting, but I also LOVED living in London years ago, which is about as massive of a city as you can get. I'm single, closing in on 30, and coming over by myself, so I definitely want to maximize the "meeting people" factor. I'm really into art, music, trying new foods, going out for nice drinks, hanging in parks/gardens, and will be relying completely on public transportation. I'm leaning toward Melbourne because based on my research up to now, it seems more easygoing, less expensive, and more appealing weather-wise to me (I deal with cold better than blazing hot weather). Any insights? Thanks in advance
