I just came from Thailand where I explored a new culture and a different life and then I arrived in Brisbane where I felt a bit disappointed because of this west, europe and clean appearance and so painful expensive place. And it is a city! Anyway I made good and bad experience for my life.

In Thailand it was actually more easy to find a place to stay for the night. Here it is terrible, because it is crowded of backpackers and you need to book a lot in advance. Where is my spontaneity I thought. Once I really struggeld with finding a place to sleep for the night because every hostel was booked out and I got really worried. Then imagend the worsed case that I might not find a Hostel and might sleep on the street. When I accepted this thought, I lost my fear and felt so much better - in the end I found a really nice hostel and made a good friend there.

Meanwhile I am travelling more into the north of Australia to do kanuing trips, get surfing experience, hiking in national parks and lonley beaches. You are never alone! I meet people from all countries (but too many Germans) on the street, in busses and of cause in hostels.

Some Australians are really crazy - loud and just crazy!

The nature is incredibly. Trees are so big and having funny roots. Birds are making crazy noises. Places where you would guess crocodiles (for instants in a river) there are swimming bull sharks. And where you would be more affraid of sharks (in the sea) there are crocodiles in fact. Weird! Have seen kangaroos and a banda bear, a brown snake and heaps of lizards.

So, so far so good - except of the part that everything is so expensive! It's always a pain in the as!
