Email Update...
Ok so here's that long awaited update!I got back from Fiji a couple of days ago...I decided I wanted to stay
here for a year so i had to leave to get my working holiday visa. So I
spent a great week lying on the beach, snorkelling, drinking, you know
how it goes. A 7.1 earthquake hit near fiji while I was there...we
didnt feel it or anything but there were all these crazy tsunami
warnings. It was an interesting experince...sitting on an island in
the middle of the south pacific. It takes 2 hours to walk around mana
island...there's one little hill...so basically, if a tsunami came
we'd a) see it coming and b) not be able to escape. So we sat on the
beach and went on with our lives...it was cool. And I thought I was
laid back...haha, they fully beat me..they dont even care about the
tsunami warnings! But yeah, life went on, no tsunami came...I did a
bit of island hopping and had a great time! Ohh we went snorkelling
out on a reef, and we saw like a 5 foot shark swimming below us and
the fijians were all like 'yeah it's cool, lets just keep
snorkelling...if it swims towards you swim away and start praying...'
haha. Island attitudes are great!
So now i'm back in australia. I spent a couple nights at Rune's and
now I'm heading up towards Cairns...dont really have a plan at
all...i'm in noosa now. just taking things as they come...hop on a bus
here, hop off a bus there...whatever i feel like! I've got a few
people to meet up with along the way, gavin from new zealand and ben
who lives in cairns, so it's cool to know there's people waiting for
me somewhere!
So life right now's really up in the air....Rory and I were talking
about moving to sydney when she gets back end of July, so for now I'm
on my own, going wherever I feel like...quite liberating
really...especialy considering how big Australia is. So I'm back to
wandering on my own...I love it :) I'm on my way slowly to cairns to
go scuba diving...see if I can find more shark encounters!
Hope everyone's doing well! Let me know whats going on...wherever you
all are!!! Cheers!
