I’ve been in Australia almost four months now, and in Melbourne just over a month, and I’ve been thinking. A lot. So I thought it was about time I wrote something about what’s been happening in my wonderfully exciting life since I left the delights of Marvel Loch and WA. Following a successful and enjoyable … More To Be A Melburnian Or A Mancunian: Are They One And The Same?
The end of the road in Marvel Loch came on Monday 10th October 2016 and if I was to say the last eight weeks had been uneventful then I’d be lying. At times it may have felt like I’d been imprisoned, cut off from the outside world, lacking in information and sensory overload, carrying out … More And Just Like That, It Was Over
By golly, it’s Day 17 already and I’m sorry to say I don’t have a lot to tell you. Well, that’s not strictly true, I have loads I “could” tell you, but I think divulging my extra-curricular activities could maybe prove a little too saucy for this blog, and for fear of alienating a younger … More Day Seventeen in Marvel Loch
On Tuesday night we had a fire. Don’t worry though, it wasn’t an actual “my house is burning down, save the kids and that photo of Aunty Beryl” kind of fire; exciting things like that don’t happen in Marvel Loch. No, this was a pit fire. A pit fire in the bush…with alcohol! Trine and … More Days all blend together in good old Marvel Loch
Ok, so it’s far from being the actual “outback”, and it’s about as far from the Red Centre as Manchester is from Warsaw (don’t quote me on that by the way, I ain’t GoogleMaps), but it’s the “outback” to me…or it may as well be. Marvel Loch is a small mining town situated 33km south … More Day One in Marvel Loch
Ever had a day off work and thought, “I know, I’ll go somewhere I’ve never been before”? I have these thoughts all the time (I think it’s the traveller in me), so it was fairly easy to decide on York as the next destination in my ‘Daytrippin’ series. It also helped that I have a … More A taste of culture and heritage in York
Now, before we even start, I’m no dating expert and I am definitely not a serial dater; in fact, my dating back catalogue is pretty pathetic and my track record, well, there isn’t really one. And that’s quite worrying, as dating in 2016 is pretty confusing, and hard, especially if you’re just not into … More Let’s have a little chat about dating, shall we?
It’s exactly six months to the day that I arrived back in England, and every day for those last six months I’ve wanted to leave again. I’ve wanted to grab my overnight bag and passport (which sit at the end of my bed by the way, already packed with toiletries and spare underwear) and leave. … More The Six Month Itch
On my return from Australia in July 2015, a decision that in hindsight I wish I’d thought more about, my burning, itchy feet had barely touched the ground before I knew I had to up and leave again. With financial woes preventing me from embarking on another trip of a lifetime so soon after returning … More Daytrippin’: Travelling soothes the soul; forever shall I wander, free and in love with the world.
My time in Australia came to an end a month ago…a whole month (pass me the gun), so it’s probably only right that I actually write a little something about the places I visited in the ten months I was there. Most of my blogs recently have been about my own emotional and psychological development … More And Now, The End Is Near
