Hi guys,

I have finally found a flat (you've prob all seen the photos). Ive moved in with an aussie guy from melbourne called James. The flat is right in the centre of the city so i can walk everywhere.

Since my last blog i have been to Taronga zoo, been sunbathing on Manly beach, started playing in a beach volleyball tournament, been to the aquarium, been to luna park (a small amusement park overlooking the harbour) and have attended Sydney Mardi Gras.

Mardi Gras is huge here and i live on the street the parade goes down, with my balcony overlooking the road. So we had a a bit of a flat party while it was on. We had security on our apartments, only letting tennants and people on a guest list in, it was so big. The parade was amazing and we had a great view. The parties went on all night and some of the sights were really interesting, to say the least.

I start work tomorrow temping in an office. I am doing this for a few weeks and then once the new school term starts i have taken a job as a full time coach, going round NSW coaching primary school children. Its a great job and ill get to see loads of Sydney and the surrounding area.

Hopefully talk to you all soon

Nic
