What do you mean by no landscape? Sure it's no Queenstown, but there's awesome beaches within an hour, mountains and snow within 4 hours.

True. They aren't in Melbourne though.

By 'no landscape' I mean 'flat as a pancake'. I like a city with hills, views, and especially views over water with an interesting coastline. Wellington and San Francisco are good examples of cities that I like the shape of. Valparaiso and (less so) Santiago as well.

Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed being in Melbourne. It's an easy place to live with great people and a lot going on.
