Living as a backpacker means that either you, or everyone else you meet moves on at some point. Now I'm settled here, it happens less and every so often, someone returns.

Seb used to live in the flat in Bondi when we all lived there (as all backpackers are obliged to at some stage), then he moved to Newtown with us when KerryAnn and I moved there.
He left Oz to travel onwards to South East Asia about 4 months ago, but has now returned to Sydney for a holiday - and it was great to catch up with him last night in the pub.

I look forward to seeing him again hopefully before he leaves to continue his travels elsewhere.

PS: Its been exactly 2 years since I left home - woo!
