Australia-Brisbane our home for 3 months

Нашр шудааст: 03.05.2017

Hey Groupies ;)

We still don't have Wi-Fi in our new home but it's time for a blog post again! Once again at our beloved McDonalds :)

Where should we start?! We have been in Brisbane for almost a month now and we have settled in well. The city is also beautiful and has a lot to offer.

After some difficulties finding a job, as it is really crowded with backpackers, and mostly only fundraising jobs are available, Dennis was lucky and found a job as a cleaner. Lisa also started working there on the second day and now we clean a farmhouse an hour away from Brisbane during the week. On the weekends, we drive UETs, which are refrigerated trucks, with veggies from the farm to Brisbane and back for a weekend market. It's really dirty and disgusting, but these experiences are very good and our employers are really cool and laid-back! From the second day on, we were allowed to drive their BMW x5 and another car. Really cool job because we get paid for the commute (for driving the car :D)

In terms of housing, we lived in a hostel in the first week, which was really lively (comparable to a party hostel), so not for us anymore :P

So we found a new home (shared flat/accomodation) through a Facebook page and we were able to live there for half the cost... we lived there for another week with 4 other cool roommates, until we saw cockroaches there and ran away. Through a lucky find, we are now in a more expensive apartment which has been freshly renovated and has really great features like a dishwasher, bathtub, and a cleaning lady once a week.

Here we live with 5 South Americans now, 2 Brazilians and 3 Colombians. They are pretty crazy but really cool.

Many of the Brazilians don't even know the basics of English... really brave!

In our first own apartment, we also bought a mode of transport from German backpacker girls, which turned out to be a disappointment today. It requires a lot of money (which we don't have at the moment) and now we don't know what to do. Tip: Don't buy a backpacker car!

We have already experienced a lot of activities, but the absolute highlight was the Koala Sanctuary Lone Pine.

There we could see a lot of interesting animals including Dingos, Kangaroos, Wombats, and more!

We also went to the Eat Street Food Market which is only open on the weekends and offers everything, especially a paradise for candy fans like me and Lisa.

On May 13th, we will participate in the Roc Race which will be really funny. This is a 5 km run with some obstacles similar to taikashi's Castle. If you can't imagine what that is, watch a video on YouTube! Really cool...

So see you later people ;)

Haha Lisi hast du dem Kangaroo auch die Köten gegrault?! Was macht der Koala da? Hat er dich angepiescht? Schöne Fotos Ihr Lieben. Alles Liebe von Eurer Katrine
