Walked in Brunswick, Melbourne

This is Brunswick, Melbourne, through voices of the neighbourhood today.
I’m curious about neighbourhoods - the history, migration and people that shape and change their streets.
So I walked around Brunswick for a day. What I found was a melting pot of hot pink cafes, Lebanese and Greek bakeries, bookstores and shisha bars, just north of Melbourne’s city.

Loved this story on my suburb of Brunswick. I've lived here for almost 40 years and never tire of its variety and ability to surprise. You even managed to get a photo of me walking down Sydney Road so I really do feel like I'm finally a local!

I live in Brunswick and wouldn't live anywhere else in Melbourne. Been here at least 15 years and I am so happy to have brought my kids up in the beautiful melting pot of so many cultures. It has made them such lovely accepting people. I think we all need a little bit of Brunswick in us. Thank you for this awesome video Rafqa. (We have loved A1 Bakery for years) Wish you had time to go to the Retreat Hotel, the beer garden is fab!

[@WeAreRapt]

This comment made my day! Thank you so much watching and letting me know your thoughts. I will have to visit again to check out the Retreat Hotel - sounds so cool!

I've lived in Brunswick all of my adult life. I'm extremely passionate about the suburbs with not just pubs, cafes & other variety it has to offer. Its also has (May I add) health & fitness gyms. In fact about thirty in & around the suburbs as well.

[@Jockuptown]

I love how when you walk down Sydney road it's like passing through completely different countries.

I lived in Brunswick for close to 25 years . They were the best years of my life . I live in the suburbs now but I want to move back to Brunswick one day . I miss living in Brunswick . Close to everything and a vibrant inner city suburb . When you buy property in Brunswick , you are buying a lifestyle . A great suburb 😀
