Life in Aussie is AMAZING! We took the 3 hr trip from Syndey to Jenolan Caves about a week and a half ago now…what a view! Words can’t even describe the views, of the Blue Mountains, they are breath taking. Just land, trees and forest, but all the colours are amazing! Apparently the Blue Mountains are called that because of the oil that the eucalyptus tree let go during the summer putting a blue tinge in the air. It’s beautiful! We got to the hotel and Chef showed us around, and our new house! It’s a great two bedroom apt, we share with one roomie, Wayne. Wayne is from Korea and works at the bistro, he is nice and quiet. We have spent since then working, and loving waking up here! Tony is really enjoying the new kitchen, and the crew up there seem great! And as for me, what everyone was waiting for, my job! Well I work about everywhere in the hotel! I have done shifts in housekeeping and in the restaurant, but I will mainly be working at the front desk. My team is great too, all the girls are fabulous and everyone seems to love my Canadian accent! Hahaha Though sometimes we still don’t know what people are saying!
The closest town to us is Oberon, and most of the people (if they don’t live at the hotel) are from there. It’s a small town, but it has all the essentials. We have made a few trips there, for our essentials—food and beer. AND…I have found an amazing product- pre-mixed Rye and Gingerales! That’s right, they come in cooler form! It’s fabulous! Though we are still waiting for a fridge to cool them in! haha (our apts were just renovated so they are just getting the last of things within the next couple of weeks!)
So as for now, we are absolutely LOVING life, and LOVING it here in AUSSIE! I will try to update more as our lives here unfold!
