A Saturday afternoon at an Australian country pub: Some of the Cameron boys took Eva -- visiting Australia from Switzerland for three months -- to the St Andrews Pub, after visiting the locally-famous St Andrews Market. (From left: John, Virgil, Felix, Eva).

St Andrews Market is a weekly cultural event held in the north-eastern outskirts of Melbourne. Nestled amongst the beautiful dry bushland of outer Melbourne, the area of St Andrews is just beyond the fringe of Melbourne's 'civilised' urban sprawl.

The Market also belongs to this twilight zone -- existing in a world just beyond the 'civilised' normality of urban Melbourne.

Known by locals as a friendly Saturday hangout for alternative types of all descriptions, St Andrews Market attracts hippies, yuppies, bikies, young and old couples and families alike. Even a few tourists make their way to the Market throughout the year.

Clearly, participants in this amazing cultural tradition are all eager not only to sample the cheap organic fruit and vegies on offer, or to receive a cheap massage or fortune-telling; and not only to browse the clothing stalls for good bargains or even catch up with good friends over an organic coffee; but also just to relax, bask in the sun, and soak in the wonderful atmosphere of a place where it doesn't matter who you are, what you think, or what you might look like.
