Twenty-one days on the road most travelled If that's way it is...then that's the way it is.

Byron Bay.
I’ve made it to the promised land. And it was just awesome. It quite easy to describe…dance, and drink and screw, cause there’s nothing else to do
:) No, of course there are thousands of activities offered. But all this reminds me of Mallorca, I’m sorry to say that:) I don’t wanna know how packed Byron will be in summer, as it wasn’t easy for me to find a place to stay these days.


This will be the first and last time I’ll talk about my fellow Germans in Australia, but I have to say: THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!! My plan was to improve my poor English from “substandard-school-english” to “somehow-acceptable-close-to-fluent-english”. That’s why I was trying to avoid speaking German when I came to Sydney. Wasn’t easy, as there are a couple of us in the city, but I was manageable in a way. In Byron however it wasn’t
:) There are just too many. And I’ve noticed that, after a couple of beers, I really enjoy talking in my native language, taking the easy way and just let myself go:)


What else there is to say about Byron? Time is running fast without really doing something basically. That’s the feeling I had. And I wasn’t the only one who felt that way…After the more or less quite night I had before it was definitely a pleasure to get on the piss again
:) I spent 3 heavy days/nights down there and had a great time, but I have to say that after these 3 days I was truly happy to be in the van again. Just me and the music back on the road…how it should be:)


Next stop: Brissi, Bris Vegas,Budabane, Home of the brave, Brisbane. I’ll catch up with a friend who’s living there, trying to get organized a bit and get some sleep. Rob is tired…how unexpected
:)
