Karine Agredo

My partner and I moved to Lara a year ago and couldn't be happier with our decision. We lived in Southbank Melbourne for 4 years and we thought we could get a bit bored here but it hasnt been the case at all.

There are many parks, bushwalks, cafes, restaurants, farms, the you yangs mountain (which is excellent to go hiking), multiple schools, childcare, woolworths, coles, and so much more! (Yes, I love it here ♡)

People are very friendly, it has a good country feeling but it's still so close to 2 big cities. It takes me only 40mins by train to go to Melbourne CBD, trains are comfartable and services run often. Going to Geelong waterfront takes only 20mins and there's a Kmart, freedom and many other shops just 10mins away. The Little creatures brewery in Geelong is very nice too, you could have some beers and take an Uber home for around 20 dollars, a bargain!
There are some beatiful wineries in towns nearby (Anaki and Lethbridge).

We're 2 young professionals with no kids who found that Lara has everything for us right now and also has everything for our future family :)
