ok now its ten month since i left beautiful austrlia and it’s endless coasts. here’s some pictures flo took.
i’t still waiting for an immense amount of photographs vallentine took, but it seems he took that much that it’s hard to sort them out.

yesterday we arrived in newcastle. the city is really ugly, not the best place to go for your holidays i can say. we didn’t even found a place to stay for the night because everything is booked out here at the central coast. that’s crazy. everyone seems to be heading to sydney for new year. we decided to stay at a national park near newcastle which was pretty awesome. sleeping in our van in the middle of the jungle. by the way, i’ve finally seen some kangaroos and koalas and wallabies. they have been shy the last weeks, but now they are everywhere. i also ate a lot of them. … ok, just kangaroo… so, tastes great by the way.
the landscapes here in new south wales are not exactly what i expected. everything is green and looks healthy and stuff. no desert or dry regions at all. the outback is just too far away to get there and sometimes i feel like we’re in ireland or something. but they say that it was a very rainy year. so that might explain it. anyway, just to mention it again, they have the most beautiful beaches i’ve seen yet.
today we’re driving up into the blue mountains. our last two nights before sydney. i guess there are still some awesome days ahead. hard to believe that holidays are almost over.
i’ll be posting some more pics when we’re in sydney…
after fraser we finally drove down to byron bay. 700 km left to sydney. byron is the number one hippie city on the coast i guess. everyone here seems stoned or worse. maybe thats why the owner of the hostel we were staying in kicked us out for no reason on christmas eve. he has been a real all-australian-asshole. so don’t go here. it is a big ripoff.
we had christmas eve dinner in lennoxheads at a stunning beach and champagne breakfast at the morning. but christmas in austrlaia is just not the same. i’m starting to miss home a bit.
still seven days to go. right now we’re in port macquarie. they have the most beautiful beaches i’ve seen yet.
let’s go surfing….
australia is a lot as i expected it to be. surfpeople and shops everywhere, everything is so far away, so many young people and it is super warm. but the sun ain’t shining. so that sucks a bit.
as you can see i was busy uploading pictures of seoul and the first two days in australia.
the flight to sydney was bad as fuck and i couldn’t sleep for a second. but i managed to catch a flight to brisbane right after that, so i didn’t lost much time to get here.
by here i mean gold coast, surfers paradise, bond university. (whoever came up wit these names) that’s where im staying right now with flo and all the mates he got here on campus. it is super nice. everyone is so kind and easygoing that i’m sure i will enjoy the next days. even if flo needs to study a little bit til the 12th of december when the semester is ending.
i just bought myself a pink guitar today. so flo and i are ready to hit the road and play a few shows, like in queer clubs and stuff. just kidding… but i’m serious ’bout the guitar. i love it so much because it is so tiny and pink and it fits my new shirt haha.
if you’re watching the pics and you are wondering why the heck flo has a belt around his leg.
it’s just that we got drunk and flo didn’t realised it but he kind of got biten by a snake. the typical stains and blood on his feet (wearing flipflops all the time). so we overreacted a little bit and called flo a doctor. for the time waiting we needed to stop the poison from reaching flo’s heart, as you could easily imagine. turned out that it wasnt all that dangerous. but a snake bite. everything down here wants to kill you, that’s for sure.
look, we have a christmas tree. isn’t it awesome? cheers on that.
