AFS says
Melbourne is a fabulous city, having won the Economist’s World’s Most Liveable City Award seven times! It’s a major centre for street art, music and theatre. Located in Victoria, there is plenty to see and do. It has recently been recognised as a UNESCO City of Literature. It would be pretty difficult for students to be bored and run out of things to do in this vibrant city!
