Cool dude, if your there for a little while you could stop over to NZ, Sydney to where I am Auckland aint to far away, put you up for a bit show you around :)
Was thinking about going over to NZ at some point anyway, if it be at the end of my month or in the middle of my year so may take you up on that :)
Ok Im bored of work now, I want to go already.
Getting on the train to the airport in around 3hours... 3.5hour train journey, couple hours in airport, 24hours on a plane, xx amount to time into central sydney... fun fun fun!
Should be a good laugh once i get there tho and will hopefully get some sleep on the plane
Have fun mate. Where you staying btw?
Got 2 nights booked in a hostel in Sydney at the moment, will work anything else out once Im there :)

lmao - organises as usual I see!! :rofl:
What?! Its as organised as Im ever going to get. Flight, Transfer and 2 nights sleep... Decided to start packing an hour ago and took me all of 20min and should fit into hand luggage :D
Got a credit card for when I want to fly back to the UK ;)
Do you actually know people there or are you just going to turn and go "right, now what?"
turn and go "Right, now what?" is my general plan methinks.
The bar at the hostel gives you a t-shirt and picture on the wall if you can drink one of everything, thats on my list :P

Sounds like fun, be safe!
Quick update, 36hour travel in the end (3 hours sleep) and that was 5 hours ago. 3pm at the moment and strangly not tired, going to try and keep going rest of the day and get a good night sleep tonight.
Nothing really to report, Im hungry (all Ive eaten in 2 days is 4 airplane meals) so going to find somewhere local and its hot!

36 hours jesus!!
4 meals in 2 days - that sucks lol!
I walked for a painful amount today but still I dont really feel as im the other side of the world. who cares I suppose, im g0oing to bed soon and Ill stay in sydney untill I get very bored and then move on, ingnouting the dodgy sportness
Nice little adventure youre having, so what have you been eating? What cool things have you found so far?
Dont remember that post... was a tad drunk methinks.
8am ish at the moment and hot and sunny outside. Yesterday I went on a stupidly long walk (mainly becuase I got sort of lost) but saw Bot Gardens, Opera House, Navy Base :P, loads of coast and residental areas etc.
My legs hurt today, really didnt need to overdo it yesterday but nevermind... Plan today is to wonder a few blocks to the mall area and get a couple more t-shirts, some shorts and a couple new books and then head to Bondi to check it out.
Jack Johnson playing in Syndey tonight which Im tempted to try and get a ticket to and while a tad drunk last night I ended up buying a ticket for a Paddys Day Cruise (4hours starting at 3pm cruising around sydney harbour with free bar and buffet... going to be painful methinks :P)
It will take a good 3 days to sleep properly m8, and a good week before your head stops floating about
Been getting up at 5am? lol
Hehe well sleep patterns are more or less normal now (expect I keep awake up fully clothed and hanging off my bed... damn beer :P)
Paddys Parade yesterday was quite good, lots of tacky floats and then live music all day in Hyde Park, there was definatly something strange about being the other side of the world, sunny day, surrounded by palm trees at an irish festival :P
Today going on that harbor cruise and bar after, few people I been sharing with are going aswell so should be a laugh.
Main problem is that it would be too easy to stay in Sydney untill I run out of Money, its great here and can quickly become comfortable. Think Im going to stay untill the end of the week and then move on to somewhere else (maybe melbourne). Want to get over to NZ while I still have money left aswell before coming back over here and do some work.
