Moving on from one situation, to the next..

An update on what has been going on since my last post!
So basically I eventually managed to get out of that farm, after asking them about 3 times to leave and they just kept wriggling their way out of it.
She did flip out on me and have a good shout, but she nicely took me to the train station the next morning.
I have had so much stress even after it now, luckily I’m starting to chill out again though!

Anyway, now that I am not at a farm, I am not too sure on what to do next.
I would get another job, start saving again but it’s not too easy at the moment (I’ll explain at another time) but I am also thinking of doing some travelling whilst I am here.
I am not sure if I want my second year visa any more, I would like it to be there as an option, but this last farm has really put me off going anywhere else for the time being!

So, I think that I am going to try do a little bit of travelling and then I will get a job when the time is a lot better. I want to make the most of my australian experience whilst I am here now!

I also realised that I have uploaded my newer short videos since Byron Bay – so I am going to do that tonight for you all! 😀
Look out for them tomorrow, I will probably post a link to it via my blog anyway.

I want to thank everybody that supported me and gave me some really good advice whilst I was dealing with that last situation. I really appreciate it, especially when you’re on the other side of the world with nobody else around – it means the world to me, to have people supporting me!

Take care of yourselves

My Work Australia Experience So Far..

IT’S 6 MONTHS SINCE I STARTED MY TRAVELS!
I thought that now is the time to come up with a mid-way conclusion of my Australia Trip so far!

So much has happened within the last 6 months since being on my BUNAC Work Australia programme and I have already got so many incredible memories to share with family and friends!
Although, I have been working a lot since I got here, I have met some of the most incredible people from all around the world. I wouldn’t change them for anyone else, we have all stuck by each other at all times.
I feel so thankful that I have been able to make such amazing friends, and the fact that I will always be able to visit them around the world, no matter where they are – and I can do the same for them!

I have visited some of the most beautiful places in Australia, learnt about different cultures and I can’t wait to learn and see a lot more!

I have been in Sydney for 5 months feeling more like a working resident there and having gained so many Australian friends, then I went to Gold Coast to experience some of their theme parks, Byron Bay was a day trip last week which was one of the most beautiful beaches I have visited so far and now I am in Melbourne for a short period of time to work before heading off to a very nice sounding farm to work for my second year visa.

I can’t believe that all of this has happened in 6 months and I now have another 18 months left of travelling!
I highly recommend that you all try to save to come travelling, as I have become a much more independent person who now doesn’t mind hopping from hostel to hostel on my own!

Have you guys gone backpacking/travelling before?
I would love to hear some of your travel stories, good and bad! 😀

New Vlog: Byron Bay!

Here’s a very, very short YouTube video of what I got up to in Byron Bay for the day!
Sadly my battery died on my phone and camera so I couldn’t film much – but I definitely want to go back one day!

Have any of you been here? What did you do?!
