This little journey begins in Kangaroo Valley, where you can experience the town's people and natural beauty. Stay at the Bellawongah 100 year old converted church and enjoy the warmth and independence of the cottage. Then visit Berry Township and Crooked River Winery, and finally visit the kangaroo valley museum for a peaceful and memorable experience.

Following in the footsteps of zoo staff, a visit to Taronga Zoo in Sydney (below): gazing at animals, full of curiosity and ambivalence (2025.5.26)

From observing animal behaviour to the touching performance of the sea lions, the visit to Taronga Zoo in Sydney is a reflection on the distance between humans and animals, the nature of display and the possibilities of education. It is a journey full of curiosity and contradiction.

Taronga Zoo

Continuing from my previous post on my overall impressions of Taronga Zoo, this time I would like to talk about the experience of my visit from a perspective closer to the visitors and staff, sharing a few of my observations in the zoo that are worth borrowing from, including observations and recommendations on ticketing, interactions between zoo staff and visitors, and reflecting on the relationship between service and culture that I have observed in the workplace.

Taronga Zoo

As a staff member of a zoo in NSW, Australia, I visited Taronga Zoo for the first time, which is a famous zoo in the first row of Sydney Sea View. I found that I have a different perspective and mindset when visiting the zoo, and I would be distracted by things other than exploring the wonders of the animals. But I'm still the same person who gets anxious when I see an animal pacing back and forth, and the same person who marvels at its intelligent dexterity. This post is divided into three parts: the first, the middle, and the second. It is generally a travelogue, but it is more of an observation and a reflection. In this post (the first one), we will learn more about the historical Taronga Zoo and share some zoo observations from the perspective of the author, who is currently an administrative receptionist at the zoo!
