New here, but know some drains.

Hey I'm new here, never contacted any group or wider community like this - but have been to some of the more well known locations in Melbourne (eg. those in Kew and Moonee Ponds).

I'm actually just here to see if I can get the KMZ/KML file for Melbourne and any location sheets that might help me explore more.

If you explore more, meet and get to know people, are a somewhat decent person and have basic social skills, then people will be more willing to help you out and share things with you.
Go in drains, look at the common names you see, and maybe look them up and try to contact them.

This is the way! I met Nippy through UEGA, then social media and other friends On Here. Follow other local urbexers on Instagram and get to know the culture as well.

I think KMZ/KML files are pretty misleading, sometimes you goet more from finding a location and rocking up.
