桜梅桃李 (ō·bai·tō·ri) is a Japanese idiom originating from the kanji used to represent four trees that blossom in spring: cherry, ume, peach, and plum. The blossoms of each tree have unique characteristics and follow a distinct blooming schedule, symbolising the individual journeys we each experience in life.

ōbaitōri is my journey, where I document the foods, beverages, and travels enjoyed as a resident of Sydney, Australia.
