It's already tomorrow in Australia... Carry On Backpacking

one step forward, two steps back

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 31 January 2008 | Views [516] | Comments [2]

It's funny where life takes you sometimes. Last week I bounced back and forth between Melbourne and Hobart like a fluffy yellow ball, appropriately enough. I went back to Melbourne for the finals of the Aussie Open but before I'd left I'd been made an offer I couldn't refuse. A mate of a mate in Tasmania needed help with his kids and I needed a fantastic job and a lovely place to stay. Before he had a chance to come to senses I'd accepted the proposal and booked a flight back to Tas. So here I am in Hobart, getting paid to enjoy myself and feeling very cosy. Not sure exactly how long I'll be here, but hopefully it will be a while. I plan to earn a bit of money and see some more of Tasmania while I'm here. There might not be as much news in my blog, since I won't have new places to tell you about, but I'll carry on updating with stories and pictures of what I've been up to.

Hi GF ( LMAO!),
Sounds like a good gig mate. Does he need any more help with his unruly rabble?
*Looks forward to stories and pictures*
Hugs, xxxx
