Between Joburg and Sydney

My lasts days in Joburg were really nice, I spent the last few days there just with a part of the team, because we had some delays with our visa, so Akona, Ania, Thai Ben and I spent our last weekend together in South Africa.

On Friday, we invited one of our South African friends (Moshe) to the hotel, we prepared dinner and he came with his guitar and a book full of songs. We drank some wine, lit some candles and we passed the night singing. We had a bohemian Friday!

On Sunday, Akona took us to a beautiful market in the city, full of different stuff… food, art, clothes, earrings, Indian stuff, African artwork, wooden rings, and thousands of hand made things.

I would have loved to take everything with me, but everything??? Ha it would be super expensive, anyway, I decided to take the best: P

On Monday we had our flight to Australia, I really was very anxious about Australia, so I packed everything, Arie, one of the owners of the house where our farewell was hosted, invited me to eat before I left South Africa, he was very nice with me.

Tuesday evening, finally we were in Sydney!!!!

I was so excited, from the airport to our new flat; the city was running so fast.

My first days in Sydney have been the best! On our first night I went out with Kareem, Steph, Takash, Thai Ben and Luisa, we went to a bar that had 90’s music, so everybody knew the lyrics, (especially me ha-ha) so I spent all night singing.

The next few days were very busy, I mean, I’ve only had 3 days here, but had an interview with a local paper, and today we went to a radio station.

We have to complete a lot of tasks in Australia, but the good one is that we are going to throw a Christmas party… so lets see what happens!!!
