DAY ONE.i'm in melbourne and it's been a splendid 24 hours! my body's still (kinda) in calgary time - it's 4ish pm in calgs, and 9ish am here.
yesterday, we drove up to the Yarra Valley wine vineyards and took many many pretty pictures. it's kinda surreal to actually be here. i hear singlish almost everywhere i go, and it's prolly because everyone i've met here is from singapore!
fyi. i won't be uploading any pictures until i get into SG skies because i'm helping soph and sam save on their internet. aussie internet seems kinda backward with caps on how much you can upload/download, but i'm sure sam and soph can tell you all about it. i'll be updating the posts with pictures soon enough.
i currently am looking out from the 32nd floor of their condo apartment, and hearing the sirens whirring somewhere close by. their condo is the tallest building on the edge of the inner city's high-rise skyline, and so from here on out there's nothing taller than 6 storeys. in the distance there's the dark mountains, and it's quite the congested view.
it's kinda strange to be back in such a huge bustling city; i think i have really become
small-city-inised.
p/s: if you think melbourne's air is fresh, come to calgary. you're invited to crash on my couch anytime. pp/s: i currently have 2 guys from montreal (friends of the people living in the basement suite with me) testing it out who can testify to its comfy-ness.
it's suppose to be a cool 15C today in melbourne with some showers later into the evening. my camera's charged and ready for action. be ready my loves.
thanks to sam and soph for letting me crash at theirs while i'm here. (: i'm a-lovin' the couch. haha.
love, val
