So I think it's fair to paint Australia through my eyes. On first arriving I felt like I had landed in the land of the lost the beautiful greenery and strange tropical noises are a far cry away from the smell of takeout chicken and the hussle and bussle of London. For the 1st month I literally excepted a tyrannosaurus to break through the the tree's and I'd have to make a dash for it in my 5 inch wedges I still sometimes enjoy this fantasy.
The birds here are kind of crazy and I don't mean the ladies. I'm used to seeing cockatoo's behind fencing in some dodgy petshop but here they roam free. Alcohol is not sold in super markets which I now realize after searching frantically for a bottle of wine before after 20mins being directed to a non alcoholic bottle. when you do find the bottleshop they wrap your purchase in brown paper packaging which I just love it makes that Merlot seem even more special as well as making you feel slightly trampish at the same time.
For all ladies of african decent the weave don't work here well not in summer anyway. I have literally had to let my hair do it's thing something I was very against for all who knew me prior but it's nice not having to put myself through that torture session every 2 months.Anyway now that I have realized that I am here to stay and not just on some long holiday which is how I felt until I finally opened a bank account....... I think I'm gonna like it here!
