The Opera House to the Botanic Gardens Walk Sydney

We arrived late on Tuesday into Sydney airport, I have this weird feeling of coming home. Think it has something to do with arriving back in the same city twice, I felt like that in 2 months. Can't quite believe its only been 2 months, it feels like I've been away months. Our hostel is easy to find as its near the main station. Slightly on the …

Efter några hyffsade lugna flygturer, vardera ett antal timmar, så har vi äntligen välkomnats av ett soligt Sydney. (Ingen av oss stoppade i tullen vilket vi nästan var säkra på att bli innan.)
Buss från flyget till vårt hostel sedan en efterlängtad dusch! Nästan direkt efter att vi anlänt tog vi oss ut på en guidad rundvandring i stan. Hon som …

Day 25




Woke up a few hours from Sydney. I landed there and had some joy and felt like jumping up and down. Australia is the last of the six continents that I have been to! I went through immigration and lied to them telling them I was a tourist. The rules state on my working visa that once I enter …

I'm back in Sydney at the Opera House again ... as we all know.

But today it dawns on me that I'm here alone at the Opera House for the first time ever. No brother, no ex boyfriend and no friends of any description are accompanying me.

Another realisation ... I am making visits to this southern hemisphere city almost as many …

I'm finally in Australia after a forever lasting dream since the young age of eleven...And I love it! My dad's friend Pat Molihan picked us up from the airport and drove us round the whole city! We stayed with his lovely family in Ranwick for 3 days, sampling Coogee and Clovelly beaches, had lunch under the Opera house and walked round Sydney …

Day 5 - We woke up to light rain this morning (apparently norm for this summer). Lucky for us we got some exciting news to go with the rain. This weekend is the biggest festival in Sydney appropriately called Mardi Gras. Details to follow on that, pending we remember lol. Based on this we decided to extend our stay at this hostel. While doing this …

Über Wochen hinweg waren wir immer wieder einmal auf der Suche nach einem Hostel in Sydney. Doch entweder erschienen die Preise uns zu hoch, das Hostel hatte schlechte Bewertungen oder es war zu weit vom Zentrum entfernt. Auf den letzten Drücker entdeckten wir ein kleines Hostel mit super Bewertungen, einem klasse Preis und das nur 10 Minuten vom …
