Well it's been a long 10 months since I decided to go but the time is finally here. Off to Oz at 9:10am for at least a year. Hopefully for the rest of my life if it all works out. Can't understand why I'm not more upset about leaving family and friends behind. Had a couple of leaving parties over the weekend and everyone else seemed upset and I was fine. Will most probably be a wreck tomorrow after saying bye to my parents/sister.
Anyway gonna try to get some sleep now so see y'all later!

How exciting for you though. Hope you find a good path out there and keep us updated. Will you be doing a journal/blog I'd be interested in reading it should I one day something like this.

Awesome stuff mate, moving isn't as big a deal nowadays because flights are cheap enough and you are only ever a day away from being back with your family.
Good luck

Cheers for the best wishes folks. I'm lucky enough to be going with my best mates so it make the move a little easier. I might to a blog/travel journal yes. That's never been my kind of thing but it's a new start and it might be interesting for my kids to read if ever I have any.

Just on way to surfers now in a bus, the driver has never heard of our hotel. Great start! What a fucking long way it is from home. Managed 2 hours sleep in 33 hours. Knackered!

Surfers Paradise I presume. Some serious money around that place. I went for the day. The Q1 is pretty impressive from the top
