It has been awhile since my last entry. Using Internet is too expensive here in Tauranga. Plus I kept forgetting as I am not in the travelling mode at the moment.I had too many things on my mind when things just didn't seem to work out for me. But as usual things worked out, eventually. But I had a rough few weeks just sitting and waiting for the next job opportunity to turn up or thinking whether I just should try my luck in elsewhere.
After 2 weeks awaiting kiwifruit tree grafting to start, another opportunity turn up, finally. I got a new job at the flowerpacking factory. Regular hours, working in the shed which means that it is not weather dependent as orchard jobs. Being floricultural assistant worked out better for me than an orchard worker. All I did was cut branches or sorted them according to the lenght all days long. it was a nice family business and I liked the experience and the workplace. But as all my previous jobs here, this one wasn't gonna last forlong.
I didn't get fired this time but I quit as I found a family to be move in as Au pair. I was actually willing to work for a few more weeks but I had chosen a dairy family, they needed me there ASAP. At this stage I am pretty much done with the summer camp type of accomodation. I urgently need my own space. I am tired of hearing more German than English. Even though I could look at this more positive way, if I had made an attempt and try to brush up German I learnt in school like 10 years ago, I probably had fluent German by now. But too lazy...
Registering with an agency appeared to be easier than I thought and got family through them in a week. They will pick me up tomorrow. Matamata is only about 45 minutes drive from here. I am looking forward to moving in and living with a Kiwi family. My next work experience will be a live-in nanny. Updates who I am getting on with 4 children and living in a such big family will be posted... sooner or later. perhaps later but eventually I ll post something.
