So, Ive arrived!
And Im very pleased to announce Im still alive. After arriving Tuesday evening to the infamous Elephant Backpackers I was dubious as to whether I wouldnt die in this hostel. But the room mates are friendly enough and my days have been filled with drinking to the early hours, waking up heading to the beach for a bbq and carry on drinking. My brain is officially frazzled.
But im pretty proud of myself, when I got on that plane and touched down in Melbourne I was filled with nerves. I never travelled alone, could I do this? But as soon as I got on that coach to the city, the sky filled with a beautiful pink sky as the sunset over the city skyline I couldnt help but smile. I was here! On my own! I was living the dream of so many peoples envy...of COURSE I could do this!
And Melbourne quite thankfully has welcomed me with open arms. Wednesday morning I has an interview and was offered a job on the spot. Although it was commission based I figured I could do it until I found something better. Still determined to have my options I abuse my Melbourne contacts for work and thanks to a friend of a friend I bag an interview in the afternoon and offered another job on the spot! Luckily its another fundraising gig and something I actually wanted to do! So I start with them tomorrow...
In the meantime my sydney boys have just arrived, so were off to do some exploring together. Loving life!
