Total Recall

This is an informal journal and collections of our stories and photos we have accumilated on our travels. The people we meet and the places we see inspire us to travel further, for longer, so maybe we will meet again.

Since We Arrived in Sydney!






Hello, sorry for the long blog previously. Obviously thats what happens when you let these things slide.
So now we are living on a place called Newtown. It is a cool little place just a little way from the main city of Sydney. Just a walk from the Opera House, from the Bridge and Harbour, etc etc. And Sydney is a really cool city, asthetically that is.
All around are these cool suburbs, and from the city loads of nice beaches.
Since we arrived we have found work, Amy began working in a fashion expo, which turned out to be a right waste of time, with the managers not having any clue how to organise a piss up in a brewery. I have began a job as a seafood chef in a restaurant in Manly. Right on the beach. The money is ok, apart from the crazy tax I pay. Although we can claim it all back, it is a pain. The work is oretty easy, I chopped the end of my thumb off last night, but hey, all part of the job!
Amy will start waitressing at the same place, wwhich is called Ribs and Rumps and Seafood. It is frequented by all kinda sport stars, including all the rugby teams from the world cup, ate at ours, after matches. Cool huh? They have signed shirts and place mats all over the place, must be worth a fortune.
Not really sure what the plan is going to be now, we do want to do some cool things here before we move on. As there is now some regular money coming in, we are hoping we can experience some awsome things, things we have heard of, but knew we couldn't afford it. Like leaping out of a plane, like going to dance all day and night at a music fest, and generally havinng a bit of fun in the city. We alrady have tickets of rGood Vibrations, a gig in Centenial Park in the City. Beastie Boys are headlining, with Jurrasic 5, Nightmares on Wax soundsystem, the list oges on and on. It is in feb and will be soo coool.
We travel past the Opera house and bridge everyday, to get to Manly, so took the camera, hope you like the photos, the route is very nice, although it adds an hour to my journey everyday to work, I like it. AMy begins work today, and is looking forward more to the journey than the job, ah well, no surprise there.

So we are in town, anyone who reads this and is in Sydney anytime soon, get in touch.
We will keep things updated a little more regular nowadays, hopefully we will do enough interesting stuff to write about. Email us everybody tell us of your stories. Gossip, rumours, anything? Hope your all well, love to you all.
