I'm in Melbourne! And I have NEWS.

Seanie picked me up after my 12 hour bus journey which was one of the most uncomfortable ever - it was freezing in the bus despite the kind lady next to me sharing her blanket with me.... I didnt have the forethought to bring my sarong as an extra cover as you get given blankets as part of the service in Thailand, and the seats recline far more - fancy feeling like you are being spoiled in Thailand compared to a more up to date country here!


Anyway, Sean and Jaks house is so cool - they have Cockatoos, Austrailian King Parrots, Crimson Rosellas, Galaas and Choughs that just hang around wild outside the house and kangaroos hop through the garden!  Had a lovely hot bath when i first got here and i have warmed up nicely... I've even taken off my fleece for the moment!

And of course I got meet Gulliver for the first time!  Here he is dancing and posing for his photo....



Anyway, it's Friday so I get to spend a good weekend with the Hansons... and may well extend my trip here.

When i get back, at the end of October, I will be around for about 2 weeks and then I shall be off to Turkey for a while to stay with Kerim.

The Course I want to do for teacher training doesn't start til September 2010, so I am looking into teaching English somewhere for a the time in-between now and then....  Turkey could be as good a place as any, or possibly a move back to teaching or working for an NGO in Cambodia depending on what happens in Turkey!
