In Brisbane

Hi everybody!

It has been a while since I wrote anything here. I'm currently staying at a friend's place in a suburb outside Brisbane. Today I went to a shopping mall for a trialwork-day. I did get the job, which is awesome, the only negative thing is that I won't get as many hours as I'd want to. So I'll keep looking for other alternatives although this is a very good plan B. I'd actually really like to try fruit picking; the pay may not be better than this job but I think one might be able to get more hours during the week. The plan for now is to find a job and stick around in Queensland for 2-3 weeks until we head to Cairns.

Anyway, while I try to upload my videoblog about surfcamp, here's a video of the wetlands of Brisbane. The most beautiful beaches I've seen so far! (not hah..)

Byron Bay

Hi!

After five days of surfing in Seven Mile Beach on Surfcamp and an 11 hours busdrive we've finally reached Byron Bay. The plan is to stay here for a few days before we leave to Brisbane.

The camp was really amazing - one of the best things I've done so far! All the people we're really great and the surfinstructures were awesome. Unfortunately, I caught an ear infection so I could only surf for 3 and a half days... I tried to surf with earplugs today, however it didn't work. So I can't surf this weekend either, which sucks. But I'm looking forward to exploring Byron! Pictures and videos will come up once I've got the time and internet for it (I know I keep saying that... Sorry)

If you don't know where Byron Bay is, check "My Map Blog" on the right column here on my blog!
