I am not alone here at the moment, something or someone is always with me. I think it's also known as a jetlag. I woke up before 5.30 this morning and whatever I tried, I couldn't fall asleep again. So I went downstairs to sit on the internet for a while and to decide what to do. They worked on the tracks today so I thought it was better not to go by train today. It was dry when I left here, although it was still cloudy. There were signs that the sun would come ...

Just like many others, I was dreaming today too. Maybe not of a white Christmas, with snow, but dreaming of a warm Christmas on the beach. With a Santa hat, and allright, of course swimwear too, but not much more than that. How different it was, this Christmas in Sydney. When I had woken up, I already saw that this day was different compared to yesterday. The sky was cloudy and it was pretty cold, 22 degrees. LOL, imagine how fast you get used to nice weather. ;...

I ended up walking a shopping street, ending close to the Opera House and the bridge, ...

Aaaaaaargh, first thing I thought when I opened my eyes this morning, Oh gosh, tonight's my flight! LOL. And as usual, when I have a million things to do before travelling, I haven't done much yet. I should go out and do some grocery shopping, but instead I made myself a coffee, write this blog and watch the internet a bit. Strange idea that I won't see my bed in a long time. I am a bit nervous if I can sleep in those hostels, as I am not a hostel fan, but I bou...

I told you I would be updating a bit more about what I am roughly planning to do those weeks in Australia. My days will be full, but that's fine as I am travelling alone, so I can do it how I like it, which is a lot every day ;) I'll be in Sydney from december 24th till january second. I hope I can catch some christmas spirit those first days, although I have no idea what to do on christmas. Going to the beach of course for a picture with my Santa hat, but what ...
