| Ain't that the truth. |
(I'm terrible at writing intros, so I'm just going to jump right in.)
Next week I will be heading off to Australia for four months! I'm starting this blog as a way to write about my adventures, discover the Aussie way of life, and post many, many pictures. Some of which may include food.
Rather than hitting it off in the outback and wrestling with kangaroos (as one does when visiting Australia), I will hitting up the west coast in the city of Perth, where I will be hanging with my sister, her husband and year old son. My duties, while I'm there, will be to:
- Get re-acquainted the aforementioned one-year-old
- Get him walking like a champ
- Play any one of these games (my favourite would definitely/obviously be no. 5, but I'll save that one for [much] later.)
- Explore as much of Perth as possible
- Take pictures
- Update often
- Find weird bugs (then back the hell away)
- Meet a Hemsworth brother
- Eat
Things I will not do:
- Trek through the outback (sorry to disappoint)
- Wrestle a kangaroo
- Meet a Hemsworth brother (sadly)
This week is reserved for getting last minute items and getting my suitcase packed for a four month stay. I haven't been bitten by the travelitis bug yet (yes, there is such a thing), but that may change as my flight date approaches. It's so weird how fast it's come up.
Nothing beats a change of scenery much like Australia. Once I get past the 20+ hour plane ride (give or a take a few hours) I should be fine.

| Hanging Rock, aka Mount Diogenese, is a geological formation in Central Victoria. It was the inspiration for an eerie book, later turned into an eerie movie in 1975. I definitely won't get around to visiting it, but it's just another thing that seems so very mysterious... And very Australian. |
