5865KM, 15 days, 4 states, one side of the country to the other and lots of reuniting with old friends - We have arrived in Sydney!
The south of Western Australia was rainy, but beautiful, we went to wineries in Margaret River, caves, forests before hitting up the Nullarbor desert. It took us 3 days to get across to Adelaide and thankfully the journey was a lot better than we thought it would be. Tom and I had a lot of fun talking complete nonsense and singing many tunes along the road.
South Australia was the prettiest state to drive through. We met up with Ryan (whom we used to live with) in Adelaide, and stumbled upon a wine and food festival in the Barossa Valley. We liked SA.
The Great Ocean Road was beautiful, the sights and views were astounding! I'd like to redo that road again on a super hot day as there are so many cute sea side towns by pretty little beaches.
Melbourne was too good. We met up with Tom Wykes (friend who I worked with in Birmingham), Ken (real name Sean who we met and hung out with at Glastonbury 2010), Tim (from Belfast) AND the very kind Adrian (who we travelled from Thailand, through Malaysia to Singapore with in January) who let us kip on his floor.
The vibe of Melbourne compared to Sydney is more Tom and I. So music and art - if that makes any sense. We instantly felt we could make it our home therefore can't wait to return there!!
So now we're in Sydney. I have been reunited with my dear friend Ashley after a few too many years, She took me along to Hillsong. It was incredible. We are staying with Tom's friend's Phill, Morgs and Pav on the 26th floor of the beautest apartment in North Sydney. We have nothing to be sad about.
As to not make this THE longest post ever - I look forward to sharing the rest of our trip in the form of photographs with you soon (PS: yes I did take that photo above!!! It's a beauty). xo
