I have left Ireland..........that country is dead to me!
I'm an Irish accountant living & working in Sydney at the moment, having spent almost 4 months travelling through South East Asia, followed by 7 months work in Brisbane.
I also spent the month of October travelling up the East coast and to Alice Springs.
Am looking at leaving Sydney in November 2006, then onto New Zealand for 6 weeks, South America for 3 months, Central America for 5/6 weeks, Cuba , possibly Canada, then back to Europe.
Latest plan is also to catch the Cricket World Cup in Jamaica in March 2007!!!
