Last weekend a friend and I ventured to Bendigo - the heart of regional Victoria - for a friend's 21st birthday bash.
We stayed overnight in her family's country cottage in Maldon.
Before driving the distance back to Melbourne, we strolled through the town's High Street and basked in breaths of clean, fresh country air.
I just loved the French oak feel of the streets - quiet and visually scenic, it was a real treat for a change of pace on what would normally be a working Saturday.
