Hello!!
This month i feel like ive lived a more realistic Australian lifestyle. Once Ozintro ended I spent 2 weeks in Sydney, where I did some sightseeing, such as the darling harbour, opera house, the rocks, botanical gardens, circular quay, manly beach and bondi beach. I enjoyed it but spent so much money, i liked sydney but felt it was impersonal and was ready to move on. I then went to skippy's where we hung out, went to the pub, shopping in the local shopping centres. We spent christmas and nye together, that was so much fun!!For Christmas we did the family christmas with christmas dinner, drinks and sweets. It's the same as england really but rather than watching some crap telly in the afternoon they played in the pool outside! OOoh then for my birthday we went to a place called featherdale zoo, where i fed kangaroo's and petted koala's!! it was so awesome felt like i was really in australia!!! Then for NYE we went to luna park on the harbour bridge and the fireworks were spectacular! At luna park we went on rides in between drinking it was such a fun night!! much better than standing in the cold freezing your tits off!
We just got back from Melbourne, where we stayed at st kilda which is a coastal beachy town. i liked it there a lot!! So much so i decided to stay in Melbourne to work for a few months as the floods have gone crazy! Melbourne was really nice, big cafe coffee culture. I ordered a cappucinno and it came with a coffee shaped heart on the foam, i laughed a little! We shopped in Melbourne, as Melbourne is famous for shopping and coffee. On the last day we went to Ramsay St, i took loads of pictures and met Dr Karl Kennedy!!!!! was so freaking awesome!!!! that was such a fun day :D
I am now sitting in Skippy's front room, i fly back to Melbourne tomorrow where i'm going to find work, i have already applied to a few jobs so hopefully they contact me soon! I am going to stay in Melbourne for about 3 months while the floods clear and earn some cash for my east coast adventure and start travelling in about April. So it looks like im staying for the full year, exciting but nervous at the same time. I'm unsure of if i want to do the 3 months fruit picking so i can stay for the 2nd year..im going to decide after melbourne because i will know how i feel about the home sickness and country by then! but so far im loving it and never want to leave xxxxxxxxx missing you all xxxxxxxx
