I had trouble getting to sleep last night- I blame the coffee that Eddie made me at 9 pm! I think the lack of sleep affected my shower cleaning skills as Stacey asked Bex to go over the showers I cleaned- I'm a bit offended actually because it's not like I'm slacking like some of the other Work For Accommodation staff. I went into work early so that I could practise making coffees for the staff. I also served two ladies a flat white each- I filled one cup up t...

Bex served the bacon and eggs this morning, and I supplemented mine with another 2 slices of toast and peanut butter (going to have a repeat of India and make the most of free breakfast by trying to skip out lunch). After I finished cleaning (which me and roommate Jade finished way ahead of schedule) we then went to the camera shop to get me something to put my pictures onto the computer (the one we got in India doesn't fit XD cards), although they didn't have ...

After cleaning and doing some housekeeping with Jade, I went to the fruit market to get some nectarines. I also brought a sugar banana to see what all the Thai elephants were raving about when they munched on them so greedily when me and Alice rode on one.

Bex was a little unsure as to what she was supposed to do, as she thought she wa...

I had read the rota wrong, and thought I didn't have to clean at the hostel today, so Amanda had to wake me up. Luckily Matts (the other guy supposed to be helping me) wasn't up either. It was a bit worrying that he said to leave the toilets as they 'don't have to be cleaned every day'- very different to the 3 times a day at Nomads! Bex was serving the pancakes we get for Saturday morning breakfast, which were yummy. We went to healthy grilled burgers for lun...

I think cleaning the hostel would be a lot easier if they had better quality equipment, like mops that aren't broken etc. Opening the restaurant went OK, except the TVs weren't showing the videos, but I don't think that was my fault- I'm just glad Chats was around to reassure me it wasn't just me being a div. I brought a Paw-Paw from the weekend fruit market. It tastes a bit like a mango. Later on in the evening shift, I had a table of 11 who were celebrati...
