I like this place, and willingly could waste my time in it.--- William Shakespeare

Surfers Paradise is still as amazing as i remembered from last time. Blue sea and blue sky, surfers and skyscrapers on the beach. Could stay here much longer, I love beach and sea and surfing. After enjoying fantastic sunset on the beach, we decided to get started our little holiday with nice dinner.

Charlie and Dee

We checked in in hostel, had a shower and went to club, which suppose to be very good and popular in surfers. But unfortunately we had to disappoint in this place. We didn't let this little thing to ruin our night and still enjoyed our good company. Me and Dee got little bit tipsy and boys had some laugh at us. Well u have to let it go sometimes, don't u...

We had really late morning and huge breakfast. Few minutes later after renting our surfboards we were struggling with big messy waves. Too messy and too strong current didn't let us to enjoy as much as we planned. We spending more time fighting with these waves then surfing on them. We were still extremely happy to be in water although we couldn't catch as many waves we wanted to.

For evening we planned to have Charlies birthday dinner in Hard Rock Coffee, were we all hurted our self eating too much but couldn't say no either to too good food. Dee and Charlie decided to play mini golf after dinner, me and Danny decided to have movie night back in hostel. We all agreed to have few drinks late night but all crushed in bed very early.

Second-day-surf we decided to have in another beach, because waves there suppose to be calm and best ones for beginners like us. Aussie brekkie finished, we driving to Currumbin beach to have better surf we had day before. We got our boards straight from beach and we got them cheaper then from Surfers Paradise beach. I thought I'm use to with cold weather and decided to go into water without wetsuit again, but this time it was mistake and i got cold really quick.

Surf could start, amazing surf, amazing waves but too many people wanted to have same wave same time. I was too scared most of times to surf because it was too crowded.

Long day behind driving back to 'surfers', we had one more thing we had to try - Sling Shot. Me and Dee were brave enough to try this. Cant explain what it is, but its one of these attraction park things. We had two rides, second one was only 10 dollars. At the end these guys there earned 100 dollars in few minutes.

Few seconds before going up

Its completely dark and we still in 'surfers'. Just don't wanna admit our holiday is getting over. Our arriving home should be really late at night so we decided to have dinner in surfers and finish our holiday properly. Nice Italian restoran gonna be our last stop in 'surfers'. Everybody are so hungry that we order obviously too many dishes in our table. Luckily we have take away option.....We bring Danny to Nerang train station and start driving back to Warwick.

Huge dinner

At midnight we arrive to our little down, busiest at this weekend. They had big event going on, 'Jumpers and Jazz Festival'. It was impossible to find any accommodation for night. So we had to spend our night in van, all three of us. Back in our little caravan park little kangaroos army were waiting us. They were so brave and didn't move even we were loud and went really close to make some pictures. Surprisingly we spent comfortable night in van. Working week could start again!

Happy Birthday Charlie and Good Luck Philipp!

Philip had hes last day yesterday, everybody were taking piss of him. Had good laugh at work and it didn't feel like being at work. We liked him a lot, we will miss u mate! Hope u will be the best jakaroo in this farm u heading off. I give my blessing like Jim did....

This morning we were waking up extra early. We had two reasons for that, we had to move out all our things from cabin and Charlie had birthday. We even woke up Phil to have a change to have this bloody beautiful cheesecake ever made before. We set up table with presents and cake with candles for Charlie. We had cake for breakfast and we were late to work. Boss didn't mind, after all we had good reason for that.

Me and Dee were weeding all day alone on the back field and i got my first ride with jeep in farm. They have like competition every day who can drive with jeep. It was my day, just because Dee cant drive and nobody else didn't go with us.

Back in camp place, Dee and Charlie decided to save some money and staying in car for a night and i got couch place in Laurens and Greg's place. Will pack my things tomorrow again, going to surfers paradise for two days to celebrate Charlies birthday and have plan to surf two days. Danny is already there, he just have work for week over there. Hopefully we will have good night out after long time. Really exited about that!

Weekend in Warwick

We had really short day, which is not good, it means less money. But its sunny and its Friday. Sitting outside and just enjoying this silence we have here. Phil said to Mitch (our boss) that hes leaving on Tuesday and confirmed that my job is safe. All good so far! When we got home there was one letter waiting for us, it said we have to move out for a week, no idea where to go. Gonna make a plan later with my neighbors.

I promised to Charlie to make a cheesecake for hes birthday, but i never done it before, so i made test cake. They say its good, i think it was too sweet. Anyway, now they keep asking me everyday to make new one :D I can make cheesecake now!

Had sporty afternoon on our day off, went to play badminton. Me, Phil, Dee and Charlie spent there about three hours, got too exited about game. Good game, will go again when we have short day or day off.

Farm life=simple life? Yes, work is quite easy, no responsibility and you don't have to think yourself at all. Sometimes when somebody start to think too much, we'll remind him that we wont get paid for thinking. Cut and only cut! Alarm is 6.25, then cooking porridge and changing into dirty working clothes. Trip to farm can start! Already 20 minutes later I'm hunkered down between long rows, knife in my one hand and cutting green corol, red butter, endive, whatever client wants. Hours pass by, more boxes fills up, sometimes we have time for lunch, sometimes we don't. That's why my new favorites are muesli bars. They help me to survive eight-hours-lasting working day. If we finish hand cutting before working day should finish then we continue between other long rows weeding rocket salad. These are not rare days when weeding last more then 5 hours. I don't complain, because I'm one of those who thinks its even easier then hand cutting. Driving home is usually ends up with beautiful sunset. I have to mention at this point that i think Australian sky is one of the amazing sky's my eye ever seen before. Whole sky is getting yellow and red very quickly and sometimes seems like we have two sunsets in same time.

Farm where i work now

Sunrise

Company

At home conditioner heats up our little room in 5 minutes and cosy evening could start. But.......but like i said I'm sharing this little 3 square meter room with one German guy i didn't now much before we moved here. He didn't become just my favorite dude. Don't get me wrong, he is really nice but I just miss my own room, i miss my own bed, i miss peace and silence, i miss cleanness. Phillip is sitting on the bed and talking with the phone. He will move next week to get better job. We just have to wait what future will bring for me after this.

Caravan park and Phil

Last week hit me bad luck. On Sunday we didn't need so many people to work and after drawing lots I'm the one who got extra day off. Two days off, no car, middle of nowhere, what should i do? I invited one of my friend to visit this beautiful place and me. Our neighbor gave his van as well, he just felt sorry of me. So i took Danny and van and went to see waterfall up in Queen Mary Falls National Park. There waited us magnificently beautiful view, walking path to waterfall was extraordinary green and leafy for Australia I've seen so far.

Waterfall

On Monday we decided with girls to try pilates class first time in our lives. We rushed home from work to change into cleaner clothes and i had to speed up van again. Although we were late for 5 minutes, we still got overview about this class.It seems really right decision to have relaxing stretching, bending, straightening after work where you stay in same position for hours and hours and lifting heavy boxes all day long. But next day, surprisingly we all felt really stiff and working seemed impossible. Even so we decided to carry on with these classes and we will meet up already on Friday!

Surfers Paradise and new job

Lately have'nt been much in internet, because i've been doing everything else. I know i said im not going to drink anymore that much, but im surrounded by irish people and really hard to resist in their company. I've been out in few nightclubs, bars and spent most of my time on the "Chill" roof with my new friends. Been out of city for few days, went to Surfers Paradise. Got my first surf here in Austrlia and become the happiest person :D Surfers Paradise is situated in Gold Coast, huge skyscrapers tower above the wonderful beaches and lots of surfers all day long breaking the waves. One of the most beautiful sunset i ever seen, although it lasted only few minutes, i saw just in "surfers". We stayed in lovely little backpackers place, were we enjoyed our evenings with cold beer and watching world cup. Danny was exelent cook and company :D Thanks!

Back to Brisbane and back in reality - need to find a job. I started to look job from everywhere, no matter where or what kind of job it is, just happy to get anything. Need to save little bit money to start my adventures here in Australia.

I decided im gonna have job starting new week. Good dream!

"Hi Philipp! I need to talk with u!"

"Yes!"

"I've got a job for both of us, if u want. And we need ur car! Are u interested?"

"Yes!"

"So its in farm, some vegetables picking, and weeding, its just 2 hours ride away from here and we have to start tomorrow at 9. Agree?"

"Let me think about that!"

"Whats there think about,last week u were so depressed that u dont have job and its exactly u been looking for. Lets do it! I cant have it alone, i need ur car!"

15 passed....

"Yes of course!"

That dude was changed like day and night, he was jumping around and telling everybody he got a job, and i hardly could recognise him. I wasnt that happy, maybe i just could'nt belive my luck. I was sorry to leave my friends, but i knew it already before that its gonna be like that if u travel, u have to say goodbye, and too many times. Then i was worried as well, couse i heard so many stories about bad farmers and too hard work. But farming job was what i was actually looking for. Because of so many reasons, its good money, its easy to save, because u away from city, u working all day and 6 days per week, and if u work 88 days u can apply "second year visa". So after first day in farm i realised its good one. Easy job, good money, nice farmer. Job is handcutting lettuces, weeding them, and some harvesting job. Everything i use to do when i was kid, so something to remind me childhood. Its good change for city actually, the view is amayzing, fresh air all day long, sunburn on my face already, even its winter here and its not more then 20 c. But most important thing - i saw my first KANGAROO. Just jumping around the place we staying. Its little camping place, We have little gabbin with everything in. Only thing im sharing this little place with one guy i know only few weeks and i have to share bed with him as well, because there is only double bed. "Just think about price!" - thats what i say to myself when i feel i cant manage like this very long. Thinking to find another place to stay.....

There is no internet and sometimes no signal on my phone, so dont wait to hear about me very often for few weeks. I'll still try to update as often i can and keep u all informed. Love u all and miss u so much.
