This is going to be a LOOONG blog post and I can't write every single thing down so this is a summed up post about my trip so far but...YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW EXCITED I HAVE BEEN TO TELL YOU GUYS ABOUT MY TRIP!
So I left England nearly 2 weeks ago to travel on my own to Sydney. The flight was about 15 hours to Manila (The Philippines- where I did a swap over) then another 8 and a half to Sydney.
When I arrived, it was hot! And I didn't really know anyone. I'd decided to do a 'Welcome Week' organised by a company called Ultimate Oz as I wanted to get to know the city before I started my internship.
The first day we did a walking city tour, we went to Darling Harbour and the Opera House.
Here's a photo of Harbour Bridge:
It was a beautiful and day we discovered the Botanical Gardens and so on.
The next day was a Harbour Cruise on a boat. We had a BBQ on the boat and it was gorgeous and VERY hot.
DAY 3, we went to 'basecamp' which is a little camp in the middle of a forest in Port Stephen. It was much colder there and the bus journey took about 3+ hours from Sydney but we had a bonfire on the beach in the evening, which was cold as hell!
That night, I was sharing with 4 boys and one girl in a little cabin. We'd been told to keep the door shut and the curtain closed to avoid attracting bugs and possums... WELL IT DIDN'T WORK!
At about 11:50pm a possum climbed through the anti-possum slats in the door and came inside! It crawled into our bin and has a lil sniff around. All of my room mates and I were clapping at the possum, trying to scare it away, we were also making seriously weird noises.... We didn't realise that it was clever enough to get in but not out.
This woke up the rest of the people who were sleeping in the cabin and this Italian guys runs out of his room and straight into ours. He opens the door, letting the possum out and tells us to shut up basically. By now our whole room is awake!
Anyway, so the next day we went sand-dune surfing and it was scary but fun! We went on a bush walk and got completely soaked by monsoon type weather.
Lastly, we went on a dolphin cruise and saw 3 dolphins, which is really awesome.
So after this SUPER exciting week, I've started an internship in a small film company. Everyone is lovely and Australia is awesome, I've just been so so busy recently so I've no time to post!
Yes, I've been on a few beach trips so those photos will be appearing a lot!
