“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” – St. Augustine
My second week here in Sydney was suppose to be filled with job hunting and beginning to work, while enjoying settling into my apartment. This quickly changed when my new flatmate, Pete, offered a free trip up the coast to get his car, hit up some beaches, and drive back down to Sydney. I wanted [...]
When I first came to Australia I was expecting very lax alcohol and drinking laws and the beer to inexpensively flow like water. I was under the impression that Aussies were kind of lushes and just assumed it was because it was cheap and readily available, such as Mexico. This is not the case unfortunately [...]
I thought moving to Australia was going to be a cake walk since we do share a common language called “English.” I couldn’t have been more more wrong thanks to their accents, which can be very difficult to understand, and their ridiculous lingo aka made up words. Keeping up with the Aussies can be hard [...]
I have been in Australia about a month and am proud to say I’m currently employed. Unfortunately my job is not ideal and I’m in the process of finding something bigger and better as soon as possible. Finding employment in Sydney isn’t hard but it does take some time to find the right job for [...]
Ibiza, Spain is a part of the Balearic Islands and is world-renowned for its party scene, amazing clubs, and gorgeous beaches. My experience here 2 years ago exceeded and surpassed every expectation I had and even left me speechless at times. If you’re not ready for a full-throttle clubbing experience I would not suggest hitting [...]
Overall the transition of moving to the other side of the world has gone quite smoothly and with minimum disruption and confusion. This is all disregarding the language barrier that I speak of in my blog “How to Speak Australian: Lingo and Tips to Understand the Aussies.” Other than that there are only a few [...]
So I won’t lie, I don’t leave my “bubble” and venture out of Bondi (pronounced bond-eye) very often. It’s too easy to stay in this area…I’m just so content. What more does one need other than restaurants, bars, bottle shops, convenience stores, shopping, fun friends and that little factor called the beach?! Oh and did [...]
There are a few things that you have to experience when traveling to Sydney. Something that you can’t miss is the Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk. Not only does the walk provide you with some amazing exercise, it gives you access to some of the most gorgeous ocean views I have ever seen. So put [...]
Melbourne, which is pronounced Melbin, is the second largest city in Australia and has a lot to offer. I just got back from a nice 3 day visit in Melbourne and absolutely loved the city. My best friend Lexy, who was visiting from New York City, and I went to visit my friend Rhodri and [...]
I never thought I would learn so much about the Australian culture by working at a pub in the city. There really is no better way to meet and get to know locals than being around them in an element where they feel the most comfortable. I have been working at a pub called The [...]
