Good guess, but South Yarra. They've been planning to plant trees on my street for five years now. Until then every corner is soaked in pee.

I'm near Chapel so there's plenty of human bodily fluids as well

Fun fact, this whole area was pretty much razed for logging in the 1880s-1930s.

Pretty much all of Eastern Gippsland, Victoria used to look like this up until that point. They cleared it all out for livestock mostly. If you look at a map of Victoria you can actually see that the remnant pockets of forest encircles Melbourne completely. This Is because Melbourne is sitting on the floodplain of these prehistoric forests.

Meanwhile Parks Victoria is actually a government monopolized logging company under the guise of park services..

The only thing that could possibly kill you here is yourself, if you slip on a wet rock

Plus it's so close to civilization that a snake or spider bite would be trivial to treat.

There's a good chance that if you turned and faced the opposite way, this would back onto a major road or town centre.

...Have you ever been to Australia?

Yes… actually a month abroad. But it doesn’t matter because you clearly aren’t familiar with the joke that everything in Australia wants to kill you.
