Hello everybody,
After spending nearly 4 weeks in Melbourne, I realised that something was missing from my vacation! Please don't mis-understand me, Melbourne is a beautiful city, so much to offer, I just knew that a huge part of my life wasn't there with me! , this started to get me homesick
I have met some truly wonderful people along the way, from countries such as Holland, Italy, Eire, USA, Taiwan, Sweden, France, Germany, Canada, Switzerland, Belgium, N Ireland, S Korea, Denmark, Chile, Brazil, Japan, Israel, Austria, Australia, New Zealand and last but not least England.
I have helped Boram( S Korea) with her english! Me !, teaching!, english!( I think she was stalking me!) and I learned new card games with Joel & Kristina( Germany): I have some wonderful memories to look back-on. Thanks go-to Mike for the haunting memory of me coming face to breast with a Trans-sexual (SHIM) in a pub in Kings Cross.....I know i'll be having nightmares of that encounter!
On these travels I've experienced different cultures and met some wonderful people, We all tried to talk with each other and yes there were language barriers, but it didn't stop us from
trying to communicate, there was no class divide.There were people who really are no different from me, each and everyone of us was looking for something!
At the beginning of my travel-blogs I wrote about "why do people go away to find themselves?".
People don't go away to find themselves, they go away to create themselves!
That's all from me folks,see in England.
Ollie.

Available for work soon.

What A Trip!
It sounds like you had quite a trip and I could imagine it was quite a culture shock to return to Nottingham. Chris. Threerooms, Nottingham, www.threerooms.com
