Sights> Towards Sydney

View Larger Map

Here is the first mow-down in Australia. I meant to spend much longer exploring the north of the country, but the circumstances dictate (read: my shit bank, per below post) that I need to go to Sydney this week. Fine, let's make the most of it then. I've been on the beaches quite a lot (duh, having lived in a beach house), so there's a fair amount of inland travel in the route, and I feel I've been given good tips.

Oh, and here is the tool for the trade - my CBR1000F, as of today legally registered to me. I've put 200 km on it this far and it seems to have been a good buy, and luckily, my helmet, jacket and shoes work really well with the color scheme. :-) The photo takes you through to a small album of dogs, kids and friends.

The Trip: Oz, first week

It's been a good first week down here - trying to skateboard and surf (progress with both but still much practice needed), getting work done and important decisions made, and hanging out with good people. I'm actually a bit weary packing the bag again and heading on the road, I wouldn't mind staying in one place for a longer time... counting in Battlelore's European Tour, I've been on the road for 5 months now, and I'm feeling it. Yes, I'm dropping hints that I'm planning to stay here. I am, after all, dreaming of a lifestyle that would allow 6 months up north and 6 months down south in the long haul - here's a good place to try and figure out how to make it happen.
