If you read a lot of books, you're considered well-read. But if you watch a lot of TV, you're not considered well-viewed. -- Lily Tomlin

last homemade pies made and eaten, last visit to farm territory done to say good bye and pick up my paper with important sign, last party in our house in our special house finished, very bad hangover is history now, car backed and ready to go.......three moths in rain, in mud, in sun, in pain, in laugh, in cry and joy, three moths experiences i probably never gonna feel again.... all this gonna stay in Warwick.....in sweet sweet Warwick! Goodbye to funny Richard, kind Daniela, little Charlie, smart Dee, bloody amazing Phillipp, landlord Mark and all new people i got to know only for couple of days. Goodbye to boss Mitch, supervisor Wallie and tractor driver Chris. I'm the worst person to say goodbyes, its never gonna happen without tears :( and goodbye again to very very special ginger boy Danny.....but that's travelling, isn't it....

weird stuff happened


they got drunk

Hello to Byron Bay, hallo to Pauric, hello to all new people here. Surprisingly there are lot of Swedish, German and Canadian people around. All blonds, and finally I'm not the only one anymore :D Hello beach, hello surf, hello sun and fun......well to be honest no surf for couple of days, just no waves, no that much sun either, raining a lot, just fun.....
Fun in these hostels usually means drinking lots of goon and if u don't do it then u probably watching movie, and believe me they do it a lot here, not only here, generally backpacker's spend half of their time watching movies, old movies, bad movies, good movies, sad movies, funny movies, every movies, as long is a movie. They don't spend so much time for reading, i always wonder why.....but same time what's wrong of watching movies? whats wrong to be well-viewed? nothing..... carry on people, I'm in!!!

3 months in mud


I've been working in this farm 3 months now, even my shoes telling me to go, they just broke down. To be honest they been lasting quite long, after 3 months here in mud every day.... for 15 dollars u just cant ask more.....they were good shoes!

do you wanna know one funny story?

I've been looking for cars forever now, every week, every day. I did find some, but always they been sold to somebody else before i got chance to look at them. One day finally i found one really suitable car for me, i just had to wait when car arriving to Brisbane. Owner said to me to come to city on Wednesday. I thought it would be good idea to arrange some others appointment for same day, then i don't have to take more days off from work, could see more then one car one day. First car got sold before i got to see it. So i arranged another appointment for Wednesday as well. And this other car looked even better and owner called me day before and said there is more people are interested but he will keep it for me. Me happy, going to Brisbane! Took only my tiny handbag and catch the first bus in the morning, good thing that with Estonian ID card u can pretend to be student and they give u discount buying bus ticket. In Brisbane first thing i went to bank to take money out and then i called owner where we should meet up, very relaxed voice on the phone told me "I sold it this morning, sorry mate!". So i was just standing in train station, staring ahead my mouth open from surprise and i just replayed "OK".....quickly, i have 5 hours to my bus back Warwick, have 5 hours to check more cars. Fingers crossed! Keep your thumbs! I went to see some of them, very confusing, i just don't know anything about cars, and i had nobody with me. Finally on the last hour i met two German guys and their ford, i had test drive, i checked oil, little bit bla bla bla with them and......i missed my bus :) good thing i decided to take a car, but all offices were already closed so we couldn't do the deal on that day, had to wait till morning. Then boys said they have to go to Surfers Paradise that night, because there is a party, and i said i have to stay in Brisbane cos i missed my bus, and the office we had to go was near to Byron Bay......so all this is very complicated and it took some time to make a plan how to do that. Well i stayed in Brisbane without anything, i still had good time, went out had nice breakfast and i got new book....Had to say goodbye to Danny! :( don't worry, definitely we will meet someday!

Brisbane in dark


Boys game to pick me up in the morning and our trip could start to office to register my car. Ah yeah in Australia to register a car u have to do it in this state were it registered first place, that's why we had to travel so far. On the way boys said they would like me to give lift to Byron Bay, i said i don't mind. Little bit later they asked if its OK to go through Nimbin, cos they want some weed, i said i don't mind....sometimes I'm kind...:D

Nimbin is one little village middle of forest near Byron Bay where u can buy happy cookies and weed. Its like little Amsterdam, its hippie village. Its nice , its use to be hippies place where they started to save rainforest's and stuff.... So we went there , ended up in museum, witch is really interesting, bought some cookies, took some pictures and left. Its not good to stay for very long when u already have some nonlegal stuff in ur pocket cos police coming there quite often to check people. I drop boys in Byron Bay and started to drive back home with my new car :D :D :D
Short version: Age buying a car=having fun in Brisbane, buying happy cookies in Nimbin, having road trip with German guys

Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, age don't matter. -- Satchel Paige

I had very special bday, got 10 hours workday.... :D Haven't have that long day at work for ages. Were very happy to do that, although i had plans to go for early dinner. Haven't been eating out ages too. It was really good for change. Got more food as my bday present from my friends here, and it made me to smile a lot. I got some sauerkraut and cheese and watermelon and strawberries and crackers and of course some ice-creams, four of them actually. By now most of my ice-cream is gone :D
Next day everybody were wondering how i feel being one year older.....well i have to admit i still feel like 21 and act like 17. I wanna say that i don't feel any difference and i don't wanna feel any difference, its just one number and it doesn't make any difference in my life and it never should. Age don't matter.....
