What is happening....






Well a lot of you are probably wondering what my plans are now that i am in London by myself?

I have found a place to stay in Nth Acton (West London) 2 stations past Hammersmith. I got the place super super cheap! A cheap place to stay is £350 p/m plus bills.... i got this place for £200 pm including bills and internet. One of the flatmates are moving out on the 28/4 so i am going to find a place to stay at a Hostel until around the 15th and then crash on their couch until the 28th. The room i am going to be staying in is a box room but all i need is a place to sleep.

As for work i have a meeting with an employment agency who specializes in sport jobs, other than that i have been pretty slack looking for jobs as i am too busy enjoying London. As for being in London by myself I am never alone. I have made a few good friends now, and then you meet people through them and it continues on. Going out here is really fun, a lot of big name DJ's play here and it costs a 1/4 of the price of what you would pay in melb. Next saturday i am going to see David Guetta and last friday the Chemical Brothers were at a club called Fabric (i didn't go though). As for cost if you are smart you can do thing pretty cheap, usually for a dinner about 3-4 of us will put in and cook up some pasta or something. Last night had a meal of pasta and it cost me £1.50 ($3 AUD). Most of my money has been wasted on drinks at the pub and this Laptop that i bought and am using now! everywhere has wireless so i can pretty much jump on the net anywhere now.

Overall I am having a great time here and will probably be in London until i have enough money to travel around again then come home. I am guessing i will be here 4-5 months and then at the moment my plans are to visit south of france, maybe south of Italy and Greece and I want to go to Egypt! I would also like to go further south of Africa but it will be a lot more expensive so i might save it for another time. After that I hope to travel to the east coast of America and travel south then home from there. Ask me my plans in 2 weeks and it will probably be totally different so don't quote me on it. I might tag a long with some of the friends i have made as well as everyone is travelling to different places.

Bye for now!!
