It's late again! I have been so incredibly busy seeing the sights and learning the ropes of the school that I haven't hardly had time to sleep. Today was a long day! I've been all over Sydney riding trains, catching busses, and walking tons of miles! It's gonna take a while to figure out how to do this whole public transportation stuff!
Tonight a bunch of us went out on the town and experienced Sydney at night! It's such a beautiful city day or night and the weather was perfect!
The picture below is of my house. The family is Greek and they act Greek, cook Greek, and decorate their house Greek. Just picture "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" and you'll get an idea of what I mean. It will take some getting used to.
My host brother, Anthony, is great! He plays soccer and likes to tease me and Laura, my roommate. He's been giving us tips on getting along in Australian culture and has been helping us work on our Australian accents- I think we're getting pretty good! Anthony is really funny and having him around makes living at this house a whole lot more enjoyable.
So, did you get a sunburn or did you use sunscreen? We are getting a fair amount of snow! We'll have to get the cross country skis out again.
ReplyDeleteThe house is really pretty, I love all the green.
