Long time no entry ....Perth and around. I apologise for not updating this bloody blog!! Been busy and a bit lazy I must say. I am probably going to write a few entries about the few places I have been in WA. First let me tell you about what I have been up to for the last few months here in Perth. I am still working in a backpackers full time even more than full at the moment been working hard and a lot but at least I can save money for my road trip.

Hey guys, After 7weeks in Perth I have finally decided to post an entry about this great city, been busy partying and discovering the place so apologies for not posting this entry earlier on. After a few days in Melbourne had to take a decision: going to Sydney, where one of my friends is living or going to a place where I don't know a soul and just to start all over again? Knew about Perth of course and the fact it is the most isolated city made me curious about it so decided to give it a go and see how it goes! After four hours on a plane landed in Perth at midnight and spent the night at the airport started to get used to it after all it was the 3rd time is ... read more

Hey guys, Finally my entry about Wellington. After 3months in a bloody farm in the middle of Victoria and 3 years away from my fave city I am finally back in Windy Welly! Took me a while to realise I was back in Welly, bet I annoyed Linda and Son a lot with my ' I can't believe I am in Welly!!!', Wellington means a lot to me, nice city and it's where I have made so great friend and had so much fun. Did the same thing I used to do back in the old days, went to Sports Cafe, Te Papa, Cuba Street... Unfortunately the weather was bloody rainy so couldn't take so many pictures but here are a few. Stayed at my friend's place Linda, didn't see her for 3years so was cool ... read more

.Tahiti Part 2 Hi everybody and sorry for the delay for Tahiti Part 2! Part 2 of my trip in Tahiti. On Monday my father and I took the ferry to Papeete to join my twin who arrived the day before, and my mum. Had something to eat and then we went to the movie and see 'Bienvenue chez les ch'tis' obviously by the title a french one. It is the most popular French movie of the decade I think they sold 20 million tickets. It's about the Ch'tis; Ch'tis are from North of France so it's more about cliches and differences between Northern and Southern French People. Very funny movie though I was expecting a better movie I must say. We went to a small Chinese temple as well, did you know there was a ... read more

Right no entry about Wellington definitely when I can but I am going to Perth tonight and my friend Katy (aka SWINGER) wanted me to put some pictures from my trip to Tahiti so here are some pictures and the first entry about Tahiti. After spending one night on the bus from Wellington to Auckland where I barely slept (gosh babies should be banned from buses and planes!) a few hours in Auckland Airport and 5hours by plane I landed in Papeete, Tahiti at 9pm and welcomed by my mum and my old sister. Was tired from the last night and I knew I was going to have another tough one as we had to stay at the lovely airport of Papeete for the whole night. Unfortunately I only saw my old sister for a couple ... read more

Dear All, After 3months and 1 week my time is the farm is over. I made it!! Very happy about it, met great people, learned how to roll cigarettes (I know smoking is bad but I smoke less cus sometimes I just can’t be bothered Rolling) and enjoy the peace and quiet of the place. But one thing is sure: I will not eat tomatoes before a long time, I know everything about all the sizes of tomatoes and I may even sort them by size in the supermarket: small- small medium, medium, large medium and large, semis, red or sauce tomatoes have no secrets for me anymore. My last night was cool, had a nice barbecue with Louise, Hannah, Cesare, Akari (aka Sausage long story but her nickname is something about what she doesn't have ... read more

G'day All!! What a boring week!!! We don't work a lot at the moment as the tomato market is full!! The Mercuris don't want to sell tomatoes as there are too many on the market as they can only be sold for less than $5.00 so it doesn't worth it. So we just stay at home watching the Australian Open which I don't mind in a way as I love tennis!!! Not too much to say then, we have a new girl who lives in a caravan next to the house, Anna who is English, she has travelled a lot for the past few years and she is very nice and chatty. When I went to Shepparton I bought the Uno game (a card game) and we play it quite often it's a lot of fun ... read more

Tatura Dear all, Secong blog posted on one day but I don't know when I can post an entry next time as I don't have internet at home. I'm getting settled in Tatura now, I have been working quite a lot and enjoying this day off in Shepparton which is 20minutes from Tatura. We worked 60hours in 5days and the good news is now I have got paid for this !! The bad news was it was quite exhausting as some of my coworkers are lazy !!! We just need to sort the tomatoes and push the box when it's full and then take another box, quite easy but I move quite a lot for the whole day. I have fun at work too, the workmates are quite nice, except the lazy ones 3 girls never ... read more
