Our fourth day in Sydney - and it seems like we got everything pretty much sorted! Got a cozy little room in an 'eco-house' that we share with 6 other people (and undefined numbers of cockroaches). Decorated the room nicely. Got two cheap used bikes to carry us over Sydney's many inner-city hills. Got the chance to make some extra money in order to afford the odd $19 burger. And found a yoga studio with a great intro-offer and a greengrocer with good cheap veg.

Tomorrow we'll go to Bondi Beach, Saturday it's the farmer's market and Newton Lanes festival, and on Sunday Chinese New Year market and the big Gay Mardi Gras fair day - there is definitely enough stuff to do here!

So far we have been dividing our time between checking out our area and lovingly preparing meals in the big kitchen - feels so good to cook again after 4 months of eating out (but I' not complaining, all the South East Asian food wad delicious!)
