Echuca: U love it or u hate it – or both
We left Katoomba because we got ourself a job in echuca – Victoria! Due to the crazy public transport prices on this continent we decidet to hitch-hike there. It didnt take long and we found out that the aussies had a crazy fear of that stuff because a killer killed a bunch of poor hitch hikers a few years ago. But we were lucky, we didnt got killed but we found the nicest lady in New south wales and she gave us a ride to the next train station and buyed us a ticket each for 200dollars!
We found our way to echuca after a hard night outside Wagga-wagga train station and started working on Angelos Farm, a few kilometers from echuca! We picked plumps and pears, got almost killed by the crazy amount of flies here and I got an eye infection after 2 days and had to call in sick 🙂 haha lousy workers
Hard work for just ok-money, but angelo is a nice italian whos parents immigrated to aussiland after WW2.
We stayed in the coolest hostel in Echuca. It was an awesome athmosphere, we got along great with the other workers. We had chinese, japanese, israelis, germans (of course), english, scottish, irish, estonish and so on. They were all working here, trying to save some money to keep on traveling. The best company for us to celebrate the end of a hard working day with a lot of drinks!
