3 phases

Hello world
It’s been a while since the last post – again. The last few weeks have been characterized by exams, good-bye and departure. But now, one thing at a time.
The exam round for this semester was ok, results will be given out no 16th of December. Right after words, the first group of friends were leaving the Sunshine Coast. It has been sad days with gloomy mood on one hand, but also great thankfulness on the other hand. We are lucky people, we could experience such warm friendships, which developed in just a view months. After their departure we felt left behind and somehow lost in space. It is hard to describe but I am sure, you know what I mean. Then, after saying good-bye to the guys leaving, it was us leaving next. This was the easier part, as we were excited about our road trip :)

The road trip
The trip we planned goes from the Sunny Coast down south. In detail, this is Sydney, Adelaide, Uluru, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and back to the Sunshine Coast. There are many different factors that led us to this route, although it might not seem very meaningful to go this way – it is for us ;) haha anyways this is it! At the moment we are staying in Sydney for some days. It took us about a week to come down here and we have visited pretty much everything on the way down here but Newcastle. I can already hear you saying ‘what?? You skipped Newcastle?’ Yes, we did as we were running out of time and the trip was already somehow a rush, at least it felt like that for me. But for the ones that know me and my way of traveling, they know also that I am a slow and laid back traveller :D

I don’t want to withheld stories from you but on the other side I also don’t want to bore you with endless stories about where we slept and stuff. So here comes a brief overview of what we did so far. Ready? We…
…laid on the beach of Surfers Paradise
…chilled in Nimbin
…partied in Byron Bay
…sighted in Coffs Harbour
…surfed in Port Macquarie
…saw a wild Koala in One Mile and
…got wet in Sydney :)

Well well, here in Sydney it is rainy. Very rainy. It just stops for some hours from time to time and then it starts again. Today, Meike and me were about to walk from Bondi to Coogee beach toady. But just when we started, the weather turned from sunny/cloudy to rain again. So we had a Pizza and a glass of wine at the beach which was not planned but nice as well.
Tonight we have to say good-bye to our friend Marco who joined the travel so far. He’s going home to Italy tomorrow early. Fabian, Martin, Meike and me will spend a few more days in the rain until Saturday, then Meike and me will get the campervan :) yhaaaaa, can’t wait for that!!

Thanks for reading and have a good time!
