Freo, Freeeeo!
Freemantlers like to think of them as set apart from Perth (for some historical reasons) but I reality it is now another suburb. I took the city train out for the 25km journey to the coast and checked in at the Old Firestation Hostel. Nice hostel and a ...

Zurück in Fremantle... Nur kurz bin ich in meine heimischen australischen Gefilde zurück. Meine alten Mitbewohner und auch die Segelcrew haben mich freudig wieder in Empfang genommen. Warum ich nun hier bin? Ich hatte ein Bewerbungsgespräch für einen ...
A sunny hello :)
Hi Guys. Just a very short, very sweet hello from Fremantle. I think I have finally conquered the jet lag and got over my anger at the Rotund Lady and the man who stole my salsa. The weather has been 35/36c and there is a nice breeze in the ...

Freemantle - aka 'Freo'

A Car is Bought

Car Dealings and a trustworthy mechanic?
Lisa actually manages to get out of bed at a reasonable hour and looking well considering her over-indulgence last night. But after breakfast the facade falls away and Lisa is really struggling - tired and not a little hungover. Most of the ...
