I'm Baaaaack! Back in Sydney, that is. I had a wonderful month in Tasmania and am preparing to head to New Zealand tomorrow morning for the second half of my amazing journey. Unfortunately I will need to keep this short, because I injured both of my arms at the herb farm a couple weeks ago and thus it is painful to type or write (or do anything much at all for that matter). It's one of those overuse injuries and it will just take time to heal is all, so I won't be wwoofing for awhile. My host in Hobart my last week in tasmania was stellar, putting up with my lack of hard work and welcoming me into her world. I let the chickens in and out, fed them and collected their eggs, watered the backyard garden, and did some transplanting. She lives in town, lovely Hobart, tasmania's capitol, and has a used clothing stall at the famous and massive saturday market. I slept in a room full of colorful clothes, and enjoyed her colorful positive energy. I also took out a rental car for 2 days to explore the south part of the state, beautiful. Back in Sydney, I had 2 nights at a wilderness cabin with my good friends Ramona and Maria (friends from home that have lived here for 10 years). We did a lot of hiking in the Blue Mountains and enjoyed the solitude. Maria spoiled us with good food. More later upon the healing of my poor little arm muscles. I apologize that I won't be responding much to emails until then, but please do write me if you want as I do enjoy reading!
