Castaway on a Desert Island and Cracking Whips on a Cattle Station

I spent two weeks in Agnes Water and had some of the most chilled funniest and generally best days of my life. I worked for two hours every morning and then had the rest of the day to surf kayak in the sea lie in the sun and hang out with my new friends. Last Monday I went on a scenic flight to a desert island near Agnes Water where we were left overnight to fend for ourselves. The flight itsel

Early Arrival in Krakow Poland

We arrive about 650 am. My hostel was just across the street from the train station and couldnt have been in a better spot. I dropped my bags off and got some breakfast.

It is about hour bus ride away and would have been a hassel to get there on our own. The tour w

Last Sunday French worship fish bread and conker hunting

This Sunday we were called to a big rapprochement of all the Evangelical churches in the area I had been looking forward to going to our usual church service so I could at least meet some new people have an English conversation with some of the Americans and maybe practise my dance moves.

Out from the wilderness

We are back from the wilderness. Well not quite wilderness Karijini National Park in Western Australias Pilbara region. One of the doctors at work said we mustnt miss it and he was right.

Busy eating burgers and doing kareoke
