THis morning my last roommate checked out of the room. It’s great that I have the whole 4 bunk room to myself now! I think it’s worth paying the extra 4.00 to have a private room temporarily than my new friends Arne and Connor are paying for a full room of 6 peoples.
Bwah ha ha ha
Had my orientation at the International Exchange Program office today. Mostly Americans and one other Canadian. Seems the IEP office is most known in North America. Arne showed me another working traveller’s office in the same area after I got back.
tonight there is crab racing and bbq at the top of the Hostel fr 4.00. Perfect for my pocketbook!
In other news, I’ve left messages at a couple of places to see if I can get a room for one month and I’m planning on fixing up my resume Aussie style (change -ize to -ise and all that) tomorrow so I can get an accounting job or something. I’ll do something more adventurous if I can’t find an office job. Fruit picking anyone?
Martin, the CEO from the airplane, has also invited me to dinner with his family sometime in the future. It’s so nice to meet such friendly and helpful people where you least expect it.
I’m off to race a crab!
