使用Meteor在五分鐘內建立一個超棒的聊天應用程式

在這個教程中,我將向你展示如何使用MeteorJS編寫一個簡單的聊天應用程式。

這裡有一個我們目標的實際演示:http://hrr2demo.meteor.com/

和GitHub上的原始碼:https://github.com/victorleungtw/hrr2demo

在我們開始之前,隨意嘗試演示並分叉存儲庫。

什麼是Meteor?

Meteor是一個用於使用JavaScript構建實時應用程式的出色網絡框架。它基於NodeJS和MongoDB。

步驟1:安裝Meteor

對於macOS和Linux用戶,在終端機中運行以下命令:

> curl [https://install.meteor.com/](https://install.meteor.com/) | sh

步驟2:創建新應用程式

> meteor create awesomeChatApp

然後更改為你應用程式的目錄:

> cd awesomeChatApp

嘗試運行它:

> meteor

並在瀏覽器中打開此地址:http://localhost:3000

步驟3:創建資料夾和檔案結構

使用命令刪除默認檔案:

> rm awesomeChatApp.*

創建三個資料夾:

> mkdir client server both

按慣例,我們將把在客戶端(即,用戶的瀏覽器)運行的任何內容放在“client”資料夾中,將在服務器端運行的任何內容放在“server”資料夾中,將由客戶端和服務器共同訪問的任何內容放在“both”資料夾中。

步驟4a:創建收集來儲存訊息

在'both'文件夾內,我們將在這裡放置我們的模型。

> touch collection.js

創建一個新的'messages'集合:

Messages = new Meteor.Collection("messages")

步驟4b:創建索引頁

在'client'文件夾內,我們將在此處放置我們的首頁視圖。

> touch index.html

使用以下HTML:

<head>
  <title>chatterbox</title>
</head>
<body>
  {{> loginButtons align="right"}} # chatterbox {{> input}} {{> messages}}
</body>

步驟4c:創建帶有助手的HTML模板

為了更好地組織我們的檔案,我們可以創建一個新的文件夾:

> mkdir messages > cd messages > touch messages.html

現在,我們創建一個名為'messages'的模板。

<template name="messages">
  {{#each messages}} {{name}}: {{message}} {{/each}}
</template>

並且我們將創建助手以通過在'Messages'集合中的每個消息。

Template.messages.helpers({
  messages: function () {
    return Messages.find({}, { sort: { time: -1 } })
  },
})

步驟4d:創建帶有事件處理程序的HTML模板

同樣,我們將為輸入框和提交按鈕創建一個模板。

> mkdir input > cd input > touch input.html
<template name="input">
  <form id="send">
    <input id="message" type="text" />
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
  </form>
</template>

另外,我們將創建一個JavaScript文件來處理提交按鈕的點擊事件。

Template.input.events({
  "submit form": function (event) {
    event.preventDefault()
    var name = Meteor.user() ? Meteor.user().profile.name : "Anonymous"
    var message = document.getElementById("message")
    if (message.value !== "") {
      Messages.insert({
        name: name,
        message: message.value,
        time: Date.now(),
      })
      message.value = ""
    }
  },
})

步驟4e:添加帳戶包以便使用GitHub帳戶登錄

Meteor非常容易使用。因為它具有豐富的包生態系統,所以我們要添加accounts-uiaccounts-github以便一個簡單的用戶登錄系統。

meteor add accounts-ui
meteor add accounts-github

步驟4f:添加樣式表(可選)

將以下樣式表複製並粘貼到您的'client'文件夾內。

> mkdir style > cd style > touch style.css

步驟5:將您的網站部署到Meteor的免費服務器

meteor deploy awesomeChatApp.meteor.com

完成!如果給出的地址已經在使用,您可能需要部署到其他地址。在瀏覽器中打開您的地址:http://awesomeChatApp.meteor.com

您還將需要配置登錄系統

Fun Facts I Discovered in Melbourne

Which is better, Sydney or Melbourne? The choice is yours. There's a traditional, petty rivalry between the two cities.

In my opinion, comparing them is like comparing apples to oranges. Melbourne won my heart when I finally visited. Sorry, Sydney.

My story begins in July. Despite a rainy and windy weekend, nothing could deter me from visiting my best friend in Melbourne. Like most of my trips, I had no plans; I simply showed up and did what I felt like doing. The nicknames a city earns can often reveal much about its character — for example, "the world's most livable city." One visit is not enough to see everything Melbourne has to offer, and I don't recommend trying. So here's a selection of highlights, in no particular order. If you're unfamiliar with the city, these are some interesting facts I discovered:

Winter is Extremely Cold - This may seem obvious, but Melbourne's winter is a unique kind of cold. Two hours earlier, I was enjoying the weather in Brisbane; two hours later, I was shivering non-stop in Melbourne. Though my time in the city was pleasant, don't be misled into thinking it's always warm and sunny here. The worst experience was being awakened multiple times during the night by the cold. Thankfully, my friend's room had a heater, which was a lifesaver. Interestingly, the best part of the trip was enjoying ice cream at night, as it didn't melt while I walked down the street.

You Might Get Disoriented - It's not embarrassing for newcomers to get lost, especially when most streets have the ubiquitous "Pie Face." Fortunately, Melbourne's architecture sets it apart. One of the city's most iconic landmarks is Flinders Street Station. Most tourist attractions are in the city center, making it easy to explore and visit places like the Queen Victoria Market and Victoria's State Library. These attractions are all within walking distance, or you can take the free city circle tram.

Art Galleries Are Not Always Free - They say the best things in life are free, and many city attractions are accessible at no cost. We didn't realize we needed tickets until we reached the exit—or was it the entrance? Regardless, we got to see some contemporary art for free. Culture enthusiasts will find plenty to keep them occupied at Federation Square.

The Aquarium - This might be the city's least-visited tourist attraction. After all, it's pretty similar to other aquariums worldwide. However, I enjoy watching animals, and this place offers an exploratory journey—penguins spit everywhere. Bile causes the greenish hue. Using satellites, you can estimate the number of emperor penguins based on the spots of their excrement—unless they all have gastroenteritis, of course.

Chinatown is Everywhere - You don't have to look hard for Chinatown; it's all over Melbourne. The CBD is densely populated, and you're likely to encounter Chinese people. Thanks to this international blend, there's no longer such a thing as a "typical Australian resident." With such diversity, it's not surprising that one can find international cuisine within a few kilometers of each other. One Chinese restaurant sign translates to "Hot and Lust"—and no, it's not a brothel.

The (Twelve) Apostles - The name is misleading; there are neither twelve stacks nor any biblical connection. The site used to be called "The Sow and Piglets," but was renamed "The Apostles" for tourism purposes. Our driver, Fujiwara Takumi, whom you might recognize from the manga "Initial D," navigated the winding Great Ocean Road beautifully. The views were breathtaking. If you're planning a day trip to Victoria's most popular tourist site, hope for good weather!

So what are you waiting for? Book a plane ticket and fly there right away. There are countless exciting sights to see and memories to make. If you've already visited, go back and see what's new. Remember, different seasons offer varied perspectives on what makes the city enjoyable. In my opinion, Melbourne is a fantastic place to both live and visit.

Fun Facts I Discovered in Melbourne

Welcome, listeners, to another episode of Continuous Improvement, the podcast dedicated to exploring different aspects of personal growth and exploration. I'm your host, Victor, and today we're going to dive into a lighthearted topic that has sparked endless debates: Sydney versus Melbourne. Now, I know this rivalry might seem petty, but hey, sometimes it's fun to compare apples to oranges. And in my opinion, Melbourne takes the cake. Sorry, Sydney.

So let me share with you a personal experience that solidified my love for Melbourne. It was a rainy weekend in July, but that didn't dampen my spirits. I decided to visit my best friend in Melbourne without any specific plans in mind. And let me tell you, one visit to this city is never enough to truly experience everything it has to offer.

Let's start with the weather. Melbourne's winter is no joke. Coming from sunny Brisbane, I was caught off guard by the unique kind of cold that Melbourne offers. But hey, it had its perks. At night, I could enjoy an uninterrupted stroll down the street while savoring a delicious ice cream that miraculously didn't melt in my hands.

Now, Melbourne's architecture is something special. Getting lost in the city is almost a rite of passage for newcomers, especially when you encounter the infamous "Pie Face" on almost every street. But fear not, because most tourist attractions conveniently cluster around the city center. I'm talking about iconic landmarks like Flinders Street Station, the Queen Victoria Market, and the imposing State Library of Victoria, all within walking distance or a free ride on the city circle tram.

Art enthusiasts will find plenty to satisfy their cultural cravings at Federation Square. Just a word of caution, though: not all art galleries in Melbourne are free. Trust me, we learned this the hard way, but the contemporary art we stumbled upon was well worth the entrance fee.

Now, let's talk about a hidden gem, the aquarium. This might not be the most popular tourist attraction in the city, but for animal enthusiasts like myself, it offers a captivating experience. And let me assure you, the penguins in Melbourne's aquarium have quite the spitting skills! But hey, their greenish hue is caused by bile, and believe it or not, scientists even use satellite imagery to estimate the number of emperor penguins based on the spots of their excrement. Fascinating, right?

Now, there's something about Chinatown in Melbourne that sets it apart. It's not just one bustling area; Chinatown seems to be everywhere in the city. With such diverse cultural influences, it's no surprise that Melbourne proudly embraces its international blend. And brace yourselves, because you might stumble upon a Chinese restaurant sign that translates to "Hot and Lust." Trust me, it's not a brothel, just an interesting translation!

And last but not least, let's not forget the famous Twelve Apostles. Well, despite the name, it turns out there aren't twelve stacks or any biblical connection to this natural wonder. Nevertheless, the Great Ocean Road leading to the Twelve Apostles is an absolute must-visit. The breathtaking views along the winding road are simply unforgettable. Just make sure to pray for good weather if you plan a day trip to this popular tourist site.

So there you have it, listeners. Melbourne, with its vibrant culture, unique weather, and endless attractions, has truly won my heart. Whether you're planning your first visit or considering a return trip, Melbourne promises a memorable experience that keeps on evolving with each season.

That's all the time we have for today's episode. I hope you enjoyed our exploration of Sydney versus Melbourne, and if you're Team Melbourne like me, don't hesitate to spread the word. Remember, it's all about continuous improvement, and sometimes that even means discovering new cities and embracing new experiences.

Thank you for tuning in to Continuous Improvement. I'm your host, Victor, and until next time, keep seeking new adventures and embracing personal growth. Goodbye!

我在墨爾本發現的有趣事實

雪梨和墨爾本,哪一個更好?選擇在你。兩座城市之間有著傳統且小氣的對立。

在我看來,比較它們就像是比較蘋果與橙子。當我終於訪問墨爾本時,它贏得了我的心。對不起,雪梨。

我的故事始於七月。儘管那是一個風雨交加的週末,但沒有任何事情能阻止我去墨爾本探望我最好的朋友。像我大部分的旅行一樣,我沒有計劃;我只是到達後,做我想做的事情。一個城市贏得的綽號往往可以揭示出很多關於它的特性 - 例如"世界上最宜居的城市"。一次造訪無法看盡墨爾本所有的一切,我並不建議大家嘗試。所以,這裡有一些精選的亮點,並無特定的順序。如果你對這個城市並不熟悉,以下是我發現的一些有趣的事實:

冬季極其寒冷 - 這可能看起來很明顯,但墨爾本的冬天有一種獨特的冷。兩個小時前,我正享受著布里斯班的天氣;兩個小時後,我在墨爾本不停地顫抖。雖然我在該市的時間很愉快,但不要被誤導認為這裡總是溫暖和陽光明媚的。最糟糕的經歷是冷到在夜間多次被喚醒。謝天謝地,我朋友的房間有一個暖氣機,真是救星。有趣的是,這次旅行最好的部分是在晚上享用冰淇淋,因為它不會在我走在街上的時候融化。

你可能會迷失方向 - 對於新來的人來說,迷路並不尷尬,尤其是當大多數街道都有普遍存在的"派臉"。幸好,墨爾本的建築使它與眾不同。該市最具標誌性的地標之一是弗林德斯街車站。大多數的旅遊景點都位於城市中心,方便探索和參觀像皇后維多利亞市場和維多利亞州立圖書館這樣的地方。這些景點都在步行距離之內,或者你可以乘坐免費的城市環線電車。

藝術館並非總是免費 - 他們說生活中最好的事情是免費的,許多城市景點可以免費進入。我們直到到達出口 - 還是入口? - 才意識到我們需要門票。無論如何,我們還是免費看了一些當代藝術。文化愛好者在聯邦廣場將發現有很多能讓他們忙碌的事情。

水族館 - 這可能是該市最少被遊客參觀的旅遊景點。畢竟,它與全世界的其他水族館相差無幾。然而,我喜歡觀察動物,這個地方提供了一次探索之旅 - 企鵝到處吐口水。膽汁導致了綠色的色調。使用衛星,你可以根據他們排泄物的斑點来估算皇帝企鵝的數量 - 除非他們全都有腸胃炎,當然。

唐人街無處不在 - 你不必努力尋找唐人街,它遍布墨爾本。中央商業區人口密集,你很可能會遇到華人。多虧了這種國際融合,不再有所謂的"典型澳洲居民"。有了如此的多元性,可以在幾公里範圍內找到各種國際美食並不令人驚奇。一家中華料理餐館的招牌翻譯成"熱情如火" - 不,它不是一家妓院。

(十二)使徒 - 這個名字有些誤導人 ;那裡既沒有十二個石柱,也沒有任何與聖經相關的東西。該地點原本被稱為"母豬和小豬",但為了適應旅遊的需要被重新命名為"使徒群"。我們的司機藤原拓海,你可能會認出他是來自漫畫"頭文字D",他操控在崎嶇曲折的大洋路上行駛得非常漂亮。風景令人驚艷。如果你計劃嘗試一日遊去維多利亞州最熱門的旅遊地點,希望有個好天氣!

那麼,你還在等什麼呢?立即預訂飛機票,直飛那裡。有無數的令人興奮的景點等你去看,還有許多記憶等你去創造。如果你已經去過,那就回去看看有什麼新的。請記住,不同的季節提供了不同的角度來讓你了解這個城市有趣的地方。在我看來,墨爾本是一個無論是生活還是旅遊都極好的地方。

Things I Love and Hate About Hong Kong

The situation is complex. I love Hong Kong for its unique qualities, yet there are aspects I find incredibly frustrating.

I was born in Hong Kong, one individual among a population of seven million, crammed into just 1,104 square kilometers. My relationship with this metropolis is a love-hate affair. Here, I'll explore why.

Love: Diversity of People

Let's start with the positives. The diversity of people in Hong Kong always fascinates visitors. Years ago, when China was difficult to access, Hong Kong served as 'Instant China' for tourists. Now, visitors can easily see the real China, but Hong Kong remains a melting pot of cultures. Whether it's with my family or friends, we find the city's atmosphere electrifying. We are hardworking, efficient, and offer some of the world's longest working hours. When I travel abroad, the slower pace of life drives me crazy.

Hate: Overcrowding

One downside? The overcrowding. Whether you're trying to buy tickets, catch a train, or find a table at a restaurant, there's always a long queue. The city feels like it's bursting at the seams, and that stress permeates the atmosphere. It's something I find suffocating and absolutely despise.

Love: Food

When it comes to food, Hong Kong never disappoints. The options are endless and incredibly delicious. From Chinese roasted pork and Taiwanese bubble tea to Japanese sushi and Korean BBQ, Hong Kong is undoubtedly a food paradise. The joy of eating is something that consistently pulls people together.

Hate: High Cost of Living

The city's sky-high cost of living is a significant downside. The more convenient the location, the more exorbitant the price. Locals often lament that Hong Kong has some of the world's highest rents for the smallest living spaces. And the prices keep rising.

Love: Happy Memories

One of my favorite aspects of Hong Kong is the nostalgia it holds for me. I had an incredible childhood here, and I wish I could have captured those moments with the technology we have today.

Hate: Political Climate

What's the source of my discontent? The influence of the communist party on this once-vibrant city plays a significant role. I dislike how the media, education, and legislative systems are under governmental control. I resent the authorities' unwillingness to grant Hong Kong democracy and their suppression of free speech.

In Conclusion

Despite the negatives—overcrowding, rising costs, and political strife—I still hold a special place in my heart for Hong Kong. It's the memories, the food, and the people that keep me attached. Forever and always.

I hope this offers a more nuanced understanding of my relationship with this complex city.

Things I Love and Hate About Hong Kong

(Intro) Welcome back to Continuous Improvement, the podcast where we explore personal growth and self-reflection. I'm your host, Victor, and today we're going to dive deep into the complexities of love and hate for our beloved city, Hong Kong.

(Segment 1 - Love: Diversity of People) Let's kick things off with the positives. One thing that never fails to fascinate me about Hong Kong is the diversity of its people. With a rich mix of cultures and backgrounds, this city truly is a melting pot. It's been a hub for tourists exploring China for decades, and even now, with more opportunities to visit China directly, Hong Kong retains its unique atmosphere. The hardworking and efficient nature of the people here creates an electrifying energy that I find invigorating. The fast-paced lifestyle is almost addictive, and whenever I travel abroad, the slower pace always drives me crazy.

(Segment 2 - Hate: Overcrowding) But, of course, nothing is perfect, and Hong Kong has its downsides. The most glaring issue, in my opinion, is overcrowding. From buying tickets to catching a train or finding a table at a restaurant, there always seems to be a long queue wherever you go. The city feels like it's bursting at the seams, and that constant stress can be suffocating. It's a side of Hong Kong that I absolutely despise.

(Segment 3 - Love: Food) Now, let's move on to something everyone can appreciate - the food. Hong Kong never disappoints when it comes to culinary delights. The variety and quality of food is truly astounding. From Chinese roasted pork to Taiwanese bubble tea, and from Japanese sushi to Korean BBQ, Hong Kong is undoubtedly a food paradise. The joy of eating is something that brings people from all walks of life together.

(Segment 4 - Hate: High Cost of Living) However, amidst all the culinary pleasures, there's a significant downside - the high cost of living. The more convenient the location, the higher the price tags. Locals often lament the fact that Hong Kong has some of the world's highest rents for the smallest living spaces. And to add insult to injury, the prices keep rising. It's a challenge that many Hong Kong residents face and a major point of contention.

(Segment 5 - Love: Happy Memories) Now, shifting gears, one of my favorite aspects of Hong Kong is the nostalgia it holds for me. I had an incredible childhood here, and there's something truly special about the memories this city holds. It's a place that I wish I could have captured better at the time, especially with the technology we have today. Those memories are the foundation of my love for Hong Kong.

(Segment 6 - Hate: Political Climate) However, it's important to address another aspect that influences my relationship with this city - the political climate. The influence of the communist party on this once-vibrant city has had a significant impact. The control over media, education, and legislative systems is concerning. The lack of democracy and suppression of free speech are issues that I deeply resent. It's disheartening to witness the changes in Hong Kong's political landscape over the years.

(Conclusion) In conclusion, my relationship with Hong Kong is complex, filled with both love and frustration. The overcrowding, high cost of living, and political strife are undoubtedly difficult to deal with. But it's the memories, the food, and the diversity of people that keep me attached to this city. Despite its flaws, Hong Kong holds a special place in my heart - a place of nostalgia and connection.

(Outro) Thank you for joining me on this journey of exploring the complexities of Hong Kong. Remember, life is all about continuous improvement, and understanding our relationships with the places we call home is an important part of that process. Until next time, this is Victor signing off. Take care, and keep striving for growth.

我喜愛及討厭香港的事物

這個情況很複雜。我喜歡香港的獨特品質,但也有我覺得令人極度沮喪的方面。

我在香港出生,人口七百萬中的一個人,擠在僅有1104平方公里的地方。我與這個大都市的關係是愛恨交織的。在這裡,我將探討為什麼。

喜愛: 人的多樣性

先從正面說起。香港人的多樣性總是讓遊客著迷。多年前,當中國不易進入時,香港就像遊客的'快速中國'。現在,遊客可以很容易地看到真正的中國,但香港仍然是各種文化的大熔爐。無論是和家人還是朋友,我們都發現這個城市的氣氛充滿活力。我們勤奮、效率高,提供世界上最長的工作時間。當我到海外旅行時,生活步調較慢的情況會讓我感到瘋狂。

討厭: 過度擁擠

有什麼壞處嗎?過度擁擠。無論是你試圖購買票據,搭火車,或者在餐廳找餐桌,總是有長長的隊伍。這個城市感覺像是要爆炸了,那種壓力滲透到整個氛圍中。這是我覺得令人窒息並且絕對討厭的事情。

喜歡: 食物

談到食物,香港從未讓人失望。選項無窮無盡且極其美味。從中式烤肉和台式珍珠奶茶,到日本壽司和韓國烤肉,香港無疑是一個美食天堂。進餐的快樂是一種總是能夠將人們聚在一起的事情。

討厭: 高昂的生活成本

這個城市高昂的生活成本是一個重要的缺點。位置越方便,價格就越高。當地人經常抱怨,香港有世界上租金最高的最小居住空間。而且價格一直在上升。

喜愛: 快樂的回憶

我最喜歡的香港方面之一就是它對我持有的懷舊感。我在這裡有一段無比美好的童年,我希望我能用我們現在擁有的技術捕捉那些時刻。

討厭: 政治氣候

我不滿的源頭是什麼?共產黨對這個曾經活躍的城市的影響扮演著重要的角色。我不喜歡媒體、教育和立法系統是如何被政府控制的。我對於當權者不願給予香港民主權利,並壓制言論自由的行為深感痛恨。

總結

儘管有負面的因素—過度擁擠,成本上升,政治紛爭—我仍然珍愛著香港。是回憶,食物和人們讓我繼續留在這裡。無論何時何地。

我希望這能提供更細緻的理解關於我與這個複雜城市的關係。

How to Visit Sydney in 3 Days When You're Short on Time

If you only have a few days to spend in Sydney, what should you do? Don't worry; with my guidance, you'll be able to explore the best aspects of this vibrant city in just three days.

I visited Sydney over the long Easter weekend. According to TripAdvisor, there are 855 things to do in Sydney! Imagine being surrounded by travel destinations, abundant shops, and throngs of people. The city is a place that will undoubtedly quicken your pulse. You might want to see everything Sydney has to offer, but time is limited. The good news is that you can experience the essentials in just three days without missing out on anything crucial. Here's how:

Strategies for Making the Most of Your Time in Sydney

Start Your Journey at the Opera House - It's impossible to visit Sydney without snapping a selfie at the Opera House and, of course, the Harbour Bridge. Although climbing the bridge is possible, it's quite expensive. I recommend saving money by riding the Sydney Ferris Wheel for a unique and possibly once-in-a-lifetime experience. The views are also breathtaking!

Take a Stroll on The Rocks - Head to the area near the Opera House and treat yourself to Pancakes on the Rocks; it's a delightful experience. Alternatively, you could get fish and chips at one of Glebe's fish markets. If you're there over the weekend, The Rocks Market is teeming with interesting vendors, local artisans, and music. Hundreds of stalls sell everything from food to jewelry, but unfortunately, I don't have tips for spending less when you're tempted to buy more.

Visit Museums and Art Galleries - The museums and art galleries around Martin Place caught my interest. Many of them offer free entry and a wealth of information. Though I'm not an expert on contemporary art, some of my favorites include the Australian Museum, the Art Gallery of NSW, The Rocks Discovery Museum, the Powerhouse Museum, and the Australian National Maritime Museum.

Explore Darling Harbour - Darling Harbour is a must-visit for anyone coming to Sydney. On Saturday nights, you can enjoy Madame Tussauds, an aquarium, and spectacular fireworks. Being close to the water is simply refreshing. The IMAX theatre here boasts the world's largest screen, but choose a film that's worth the scale. I once saw Tom Cruise's Top Gun—a great movie—but it wasn't as enjoyable in 3D. Also, don't miss the Lindt Chocolate Café, Hurricane.

Relax at Bondi Beach - Make sure to visit the famous beaches of Bondi, Manly, Coogee, Bronte, and Maroubra, which are beautiful, clean, and have soft sand. The beaches are usually crowded, which means you'll see plenty of eye-catching swimwear. Stay focused!

Experience the World's Best Ice Cream - If you're an ice cream aficionado, a trip to Newtown is a must. It's one of the few places in the world where you can find exquisite gelato. You can also try unique flavors at Cow and the Moon. However, be prepared to wait in line and struggle to find a seat where you can savor your gelato. You'll undoubtedly become a fan of this establishment!

Final Thoughts - There's so much more to explore, but these activities and destinations are must-sees. As you can see, nothing is impossible. Rise early, make the most of your time, pull up Google Maps, and immerse yourself in an authentic Sydney experience. Enjoy your trip!

How to Visit Sydney in 3 Days When You're Short on Time

Welcome, welcome, welcome! You're listening to "Continuous Improvement," the podcast where we explore strategies and tips to level up your life. I'm your host, Victor, and today we're diving into a topic that's perfect for all you adventure-seekers and time-limited travelers out there. We're talking about how to make the most of your three-day trip to the vibrant city of Sydney! So, let's get started.

Now, I know what you're thinking. How on earth can you possibly experience all that Sydney has to offer in just three days? Well, fear not, my friends, because with a little guidance, you'll be able to explore the essentials and have a memorable experience. So, let's jump right into it.

To kickstart your Sydney journey, there's one iconic landmark you simply cannot miss: the Opera House. The perfect spot for a memorable selfie and jaw-dropping views is the Sydney Ferris Wheel. Plus, it's a more budget-friendly option compared to climbing the Harbour Bridge. Trust me, the views from up there are absolutely breathtaking!

After capturing the perfect Instagram-worthy moments, it's time to take a leisurely stroll in The Rocks area. Treat yourself to a delightful meal at Pancakes on the Rocks or indulge in some delicious fish and chips at one of Glebe's fish markets. And if you happen to be in Sydney over the weekend, The Rocks Market is a must-visit. You'll find a variety of interesting vendors, local artisans, and live music—be prepared though, your wallet might get a little lighter!

Now, let's talk culture. Sydney is home to numerous museums and art galleries that offer a wealth of knowledge and fascinating exhibits. The best part? Many of them have free entry! Make sure to visit the Australian Museum, the Art Gallery of NSW, The Rocks Discovery Museum, the Powerhouse Museum, and the Australian National Maritime Museum. You'll be amazed at the history and artwork waiting to be discovered.

Next up, we have Darling Harbour—a must-visit destination for anyone coming to Sydney. On Saturday nights, you'll be treated to a spectacular display of fireworks, alongside attractions like Madame Tussauds and the aquarium. And if you're up for it, head to the IMAX theatre with its world's largest screen. Just make sure to choose a film that's worth the scale! Don't forget to indulge in some heavenly treats at the Lindt Chocolate Café and Hurricane—it's like a little slice of paradise.

Now, no visit to Sydney would be complete without experiencing its famous beaches. Bondi, Manly, Coogee, Bronte, and Maroubra are all worth a visit. Picture beautiful, clean beaches with soft sand—perfect for sunbathing and people-watching. And let's be honest, you'll see some eye-catching swimwear while you're there!

Are you an ice cream enthusiast like me? Well, Newtown is the place to be. This vibrant neighborhood offers some of the world's most exquisite gelato. One of my personal favorites is Cow and the Moon—where they serve up unique and delicious flavors. But be prepared for a bit of a wait and a bit of a struggle to find a seat. Trust me though, it's absolutely worth it! You'll become an instant fan.

And there you have it, my fellow wanderlusters! These activities and destinations are a true taste of what Sydney has to offer in just three days. Remember, with a little determination, an early start, and some help from good old Google Maps, you can truly immerse yourself in an authentic Sydney experience.

That's all we have for today on "Continuous Improvement." I hope you found these tips helpful and inspiring. Join me next time as we explore more ways to level up your life. Until then, keep striving for continuous improvement!

如何在時間緊張的情況下,三天內遊覽悉尼

如果你只有幾天的時間可以在悉尼度過,你應該做什麼?

別擔心,有了我的指導,你將能夠在短短三天內探索這個充滿活力城市的最佳面貌.

我在復活節長假期間訪問了悉尼。根據TripAdvisor的數據,悉尼有855個玩樂之處!想象一下,你將被旅遊目的地、繁華的商店和人潮所包圍。這個城市無疑會使你的脈搏加快,你可能會想看到悉尼所能提供的所有風景,但時間有限。好消息是,你只需三天就能體驗最重要的景點,而且不會錯過任何重要的部分。這就是方法:

在悉尼最有效地利用你的時間的策略

從歌劇院開始你的旅程 - 你不可能到訪悉尼卻沒有在歌劇院和悉尼港大橋前自拍一張。雖然爬橋是可能的,但相當昂貴。我建議你省錢,乘坐悉尼摩天輪,可以有一種獨特且可能一生只有一次的體驗,同時可以眺望令人歎為觀止的風景!

在 The Rocks散步 -來到歌劇院附近的地方,享受 The Rocks 的煎餅吧,那是極好的體驗。或者,你可以在Glebe的魚市場選一家店品嘗炸魚和薯條。如果你在週末來訪,The Rocks市集將充滿有趣的攤位、當地藝術家和音樂。數百個攤位出售從食品到珠寶的各種物品,但不幸的是,我沒有為你提供如何在你被誘惑購買更多物品時如何節省開支的建議。

參觀博物館和藝術館 - 在Martin Place周圍的博物館和藝術館引起了我的興趣。他們許多都提供免費入場,並能提供豐富的資訊。儘管我並不是當代藝術的專家,但我的一些最愛包括澳洲博物館、新南威爾斯藝術館、The Rocks Discovery博物館、Powerhouse博物館和澳洲國家海洋博物館。

探索達令港(Darling Harbour) - 達令港是任何人來到悉尼都必須去的地方。星期六晚上,你可以欣賞到杜莎夫人蠟像館、水族館和壯觀的煙火。接近水域真的讓人精神焕發。這裡的IMAX劇院擁有世界最大的螢幕,但選擇一部適合大螢幕的電影。我曾經看過湯姆·克魯斯的《壯志凌雲》這麼好的一部電影,但在3D下看並沒那麼讚。還有,別忘了去Lindt巧克力咖啡廳和颶風餐廳。

在邦代海灘放鬆身心 - 確保參觀邦代海灘、曼利、庫吉、布朗特和馬魯巴等著名海灘,這些海灘都非常美麗、乾淨,沙子也特別柔軟。海灘通常人滿為患,所以你會看到許多吸引眼球的泳裝。保持專注!

體驗世界最好的冰淇淋 - 如果你是冰淇淋愛好者,那麼去紐頓鎮(Newtown)是必須的。這是世界上為數不多的能找到精美冰淇淋的地方,你也可以在《牛與月亮》中嘗試獨特的口味。但是,做好排隊等候,並找到一個可以好好享用你的冰淇淋的座位的心理準備。你必將成為這家店的粉絲!

最後的想法 - 還有更多可以探索的地方,但這些活動和目的地是必看的。如你所見,沒什麼是不可能的。早起,充分利用你的時間,打開Google地圖,並將自己沉浸在真正的悉尼體驗中。享受你的旅程!
