It has been quite some while since I last updated my blog.
I am currently now in Melbourne. Had been busy setting up the necessary stuff for the coming 2 years. Nic and I were here since 6 Feb. For the past 6 days, we are both busy searching for apartment, opening bank account, familiarising ourselves with Melbourne.
Melbourne is indeed a very nice place.. slow paced.... but it is also a very expensive place to live in... unless you are working... cos a normal meal outside can easily cost you AUD6-7.. so we really got to scrimp and save, and try to eat at home as much as we can.
For the past few days, the weather here was generally good... strong cold wind and cooling weather... (a little different from what I expected, especially since it is suppose to be summer). =)
Over here, shop closes very early. By 7pm, almost all the shopping centres are closed.. so we are spending all our evenings at home watching tv. Since it was only the first week, we didn't really get to explore much. But I am really looking forward in getting to know this place better, and hopefully can bring my visitors around when they come. haha...
Also, we have managed to find a good apartment in a good location... its a one bedroom apartment. small but cosy. however, we do still have a spacious living area, hence we probably still might be able to accommodate some friends when they visit us.. haha... (must book in advance wor...=p)
oK, think I will pen-off for today... will continue to update my blog as often as I can, as well as to add in photos.. so stay tuned!...
Cheers!
