“I love that we’re out exploring regional NSW today,” says eastern suburbs man while strolling through Glebe Markets

OFF THE GRID: An eastern suburbs man and his wife have made the 14-minute Uber journey from Bondi to Glebe Markets today, describing the experience as “a proper road trip.”

“We just wanted to get out of Sydney for a bit,” Oliver James-Gidley told DBT, despite the fact that Glebe Markets is only 3.2 kms from the CBD.

“I forget there’s this whole other Sydney out there. Real people doing real things.”

Eyewitnesses say Oliver James-Gidley and his wife looked scared and overwhelmed at times.

“She was keeping a very tight hold on her tote bag,” said one onlooker.

“And their eyes were darting nervously from side to side.”

As the pair recover from their Glebe Markets experience, they now have their sights set on exploring other “remote” areas of Sydney.

“I’m going to take it slow, but I think next weekend we might try Broadway Shopping centre.”
