Stories from Smugglers Cove - Goodbye Australia Here's how it finally comes to conclusion. I've been wrapping up my time here at least once before but this time I have a feeling it will be for good. Although there is nothing more certain than uncertainty in life, now's the time to take on some challenges back home. Our trip to Fiji was just as good as I thought it would be.

Less than three weeks left in Oz and, as usual, those last weeks will be very, very interesting and a lot of fun.

Happy Easter Hey, hardly two weeks since my last entry and here we go again! Easter came and went. Indeed, we did drive out to Andrew's ranch with just a small group. My American friend Stephan and I decided to rent a car as we wanted to be able to leave earlier. It was just one night but nonetheless very relaxing time as usual and Stephan seemed to like it as well. It is always extremely enjoyable to get away from the city into the Australian wilderness, hike a...
