In this blog entry I'm going to write just one line per day. 143 cha racters or less. Just to mix things up a bit without boring you too much. 16/11/12 Back to normal, 19 arrivals, $3 tip. That's it. This 143 character thing should be a doddle! Time to watch How I met your mother before bed. 17/11/12 Went to watch Rugby in town, wasn't on. Drank alone. Went t'beach, made fire. People joined, sang to my Uke & I did fire staff. Hitched home. 18/11/...

Despite what the title might suggest, it was more about the wildlife than a wild time here at Thala... 19/10/2012 So now that Lloren has left, I guess I'll have a lot more time to fill. Time spent probably learning German and playing my Ukulele when it arrives. Oh yeh, that's two things I haven't mentioned; I'm learning German and I bought a Ukulele.

This is where I saw 'Have a workplace romance', I put it on there, not as a goal ...

Well the application I use to write my travel blog crashed and deleted my entire blog. Luckily, as I saw it was crashing, I hit print screen, so I managed to save most of it. I think I missed a line or two at the top, but hey... I'll type up what I managed to salvage: 28/09/12 Yesterday was fairly standard as far as the shift went but this weekend will see an increase of arrivals getting us up to 100% capacity, bring on the hell! It rained last night, abso...

16/09/12 I'll start this off by saying that Sydney is booked for Christmas and New Year! Not cheap either! At a whopping $199 p/n on the 30th & 31st December, probably the 2 nights I won't be there! But hey, it'll be worth it. The hostel I've booked was recommended to me, I don't know when, ages ago. I had a look on all the reputable websites with ratings and it's 90+% every time. The only downside anybody complained about was people coming in at all hours...
