The first day of our trip technically started on Day 0, where I met my fellow travellers who had hired a seat on the sharebus! Sharebus is a bus, obviously, where you hire a seat and all drive around to complete a travel plan together without the restriction of a tour or guide, a pretty

After my contract in Narrandera finished, it left me 3 weeks in no mans land. Week 3 of 3 was in Sydney, which technically meant I had 2 weeks in no mans land. I made my choice to head back to Newcastle, work a little, and relax a little. My first week in Newy was

My new contract was in a location called Narrandera. A relatively small country town approximately a 2 hours flight inland from Sydney. My flight was an early one, but of course, it went without a hitch. I was picked up at the airport by one of the new housemates, and we headed back. The house

My flight back to Sydney was post nightshift. So it’s fair to say I was a sleepy human being. My flight was fully booked, and the rural planes are absolutely tiny, which meant unfortunately some luggage wasn’t going to fit on the plane.

With my travels around the south west coast of Australia coming to an end employment was at the forefront of my mind. My journey to employment lead me to living in Wingham, a small town 40 minutes in land in NSW, where i would be working at the local base hospital. My story in Wingham

The week began bright and early with a 6am collection from Perth, heading straight out to Burberry Wildlife Park where the group got to meet each other properly and have a natter, while also helping out the local volunteers with the days tasks. This included feeding many singlets (and cuddling one) a couple of emus

On arrival to my hostel in Perth i was expecting bad things, as the hostel actually had very bad reviews, however i was pleasantly surprised by the fully working kitchen and the good showers. My room mates were nice and non of them snored (a success!). The first day in Perth was actually spent away
