A Newcomer’s Observations

March 8, 2017March 26, 2017 / Jane / Leave a comment

It's been nearly eight weeks since we arrived in Wellington. Wellington a very multicultural city, and a fun fact if you didn't know already, it is the world's windiest city! I don't doubt it - it can be very fierce! Everywhere we go, the people that we meet tell us this has been the worst … Continue reading A Newcomer’s Observations

The Lure of a Place Not Yet Visited…

May 2, 2014October 22, 2017 / Jane / Leave a comment

I'm moving to Western Australia... Conscious that last year I spent time in Melbourne job hunting and just spending money, with not an overly large sum of Australian dollars left I decided it would be wise to find a job to go to rather than just arriving having left a perfectly good job...

I pass through the barriers awaiting my train. The same platform everyday, speeding away from central … Continue reading A view of Harbour Bridge by Daily Commute

Decisions, Secret Gardens and the World’s Largest Imax

January 22, 2014 / Jane / Leave a comment

I sat reading over my last blog post and stared at the screen. The words I had written the night previously illuminated in front of me. Talking to me. I sighed. A good friend txted with her own dilemma. She couldn't decide whether to stay an extra week in Adelaide or travel to Melbourne. She … Continue reading Decisions, Secret Gardens and the World’s Largest Imax

Welcome to Sydney

January 3, 2014January 3, 2014 / Jane / Leave a comment

We descend through the clouds... Water is everywhere. Out of my window I see the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. A small CBD by air; the city sprawls out around. Touching down, we taxi, passing water by the runway, the first near a runway so far in Australia. Appreciatively collected at the airport, our path … Continue reading Welcome to Sydney
