The Silver Bullet

Hello hello, just when you all thought I'd definitively given up on writing my blog, here comes a new post! Don't be afraid though, it's just a short update on my Australian life.

As most of you know, I'm still in the middle of Australia, in Alice Springs (i'll write about how it happened and how come I'm still here in one of the next posts). One of the characteristics of Alice Springs is that it has the worst real estate market in the world. It's ironic - a place in the middle of the desert (lots of space, not many people) and there's not enough houses! Since april when I arrived, I've already moved 6 times!

But the last one was really worth it. I moved to the coolest house ever - a train carriage called Silver Bullet! How awesome is that! It's right at my workplace, so I don't have to get up early, in the middle of an industrial area, so it's deadly calm at night and most importantly, I don't have to share it with anyone! It's all mine! After all the time I spent CouchSurfing and house sharing, I really really enjoy having my own space (especially after I finally admitted that I'm really anal about kitchen). So I'm very happy beetle now. Basically the only thing I wish it had is rails, so I could start the engine and move to Darwin or to Adelaide whenever I get sick of Alice.

Apart from new house, I'm also finishing a fairly big website project and I'm hopefully near to the end of a process of obtaining a new visa (457 Employer Sponsored Visa), damn I hate bureaucracy! I've got many projects and missions planned and if I get the visa, I'll probably stick around for quite a while.

Enjoy the pics!
