I consider myself fortunate that I can live and work in St Leonards, a small coastal village on the Bellarine Peninsula. The population swells over the Xmas period with holiday makers which gives the township that buzz and tourist atmosphere. The safe swimming beach, walks through reserves, and fishing draws people to the area. In the off season we as residents can take advantage of the peace and solitude, but know that we are only a 35 minute drive to Geelong or 90 minutes to Melbourne if we need to go cosmopolitan.
