Leaving Sydney for the first time

In my 1 month birthday in Sydney, I left the city for the first time. In a trip organised our company partner – Colmar Brunton – in order to celebrate the first semester’s results (to which I didn’t contribute ;o)), we all went to Hunter Valley.

This Valley is just 2 hours away from Sydney and very renowned by its vines and wineries (I didn’t know Australia had worldwide known wines before starting researching about the country). In our way, we tasted different types of wines in a couple of wineries (very fancy!) and ate quite well in a restaurant, from where we could face a beautiful landscape.

Besides improving my weak knowledge about wine, it was very nice to get to know a little bit more about Australia and the non big city environment. As well, spend time with the work colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere was very worthwhile.
