Overall

I spent 3 months visiting my daughter in a suberb of Perth. I really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere of the city, much more relaxed than Sydney. The suberb of Subiaco was great for coffee shops and shopping, with a rail conection to the city only 10 mins away. Travel is so cheap. Freo is a great place which is at the mouth of the Swan River. Travel inland to Wave Rock and the Wineries on the river are very nice. The road south to Mandurah and Bunbury is awesome with plenty to see in both places. Travel north to see great beaches. The Tea Rooms at Cottesloe beach is very nice, the beach is also, but beware of the wind that gets up in the afternoons.
