It’s been a while Kangaroo&Chips readers and I
apologise.
Although life in Melbourne was good while it lasted, I felt
at a stand still with not too much to report on. We all managed to get into a
routine. I started work for an Accountancy Firm as Admin/Receptionist – me
behind a desk all day is soul destroying though. Liv worked for APG knocking doors and trying to convince people to
switch energy companies – also soul destroying. Sarah worked and still is
working as office staff for Foster’s Beer where she gets free beer on Fridays.
Aine had to go home :( and Anna moved in with her Boyfriend Ben, but is now headed home also :(
So, Liv
& Myself are the last ladies standing from our original crew of 6.
While in Melbourne we lived in St. Kilda on Chapel Street,
about a 10 minute walk from the beach. The location was perfect, but the
apartments were a kip (also known as ‘The Craic Den’… classy I know!), but as
always we made the best of it, made some good friends and had some great
parties! We did what we came to do there, live in the big City, work and save
some money.
Strange or legendary? Batman Skating down the boardwalk at St. Kilda Beach!
Last Ladies Standing in Melbourne -
Beth, Liv, Borgy, Anna & Me :)
When we were getting up in the morning for work and it was
freezing out, and we had no winter wardrobe with us, nor did we plan on buying
one to lug around with us, we decided it was time to say goodbye to Melbourne
and hello to Cairns where we flew up North to the SUN.
Liv, Charlie (lived in the apt with Sarah & Aine) and I
stayed in a hostel called ‘Woodduck’ in Cairns. We had a 3 day free room pass
we wanted to use there. Gilligans was a great hostel to stay in last time but
Woodduck was definitely cheaper and we made some great friends, including Lois
from Manchester who is on the next leg of our adventure with us now…. But
before I tell you about that, let me tell you all about our adventures in
Cairns.....
