Wow! Ive been out here two months today - time has definately flwon whilst Ive been having the time of my life. It still feels strange being away from home, I sometimes just want to be in my own bed, in my home, watching the tv, and just being around the people I care about. I even miss getting up in the morning to go to work - surely this will stop soon!? I hope Dad, Nan and Grandad had a lovely day yesterday and that they received my cards? Sorry I couldnt be ...

I have to open up a bank account with ANZ bank in Sydney when I...

I was home alone last night. We had a greek dinner -souvlaki. It was great to taste something new. The good thing about staying with Nino and Grace is that they have different foods every night! Nino is Australian and Grace is Italian. Lukas was out last night and Nino & Grace went to a freinds for a few drinks.
