Goodbye Sydney
I haven’t had much time to care about the blog in the last few weeks,I’m working in an apple factory from one month,if you are backpackers and you are in Victoria,close to melbourne,be aware that from monday Battunga Apples in Hoddles Creek is looking for 30 backpackers for fruit picking. After three month working in Mullumbimby in New South Wales I just would like to travel all around Australia,a backpack on my back and nothing more then that,by the way if you are looking for a good backpack Blackwolf is amazing,I bought one two weeks ago and it as everything I need,if you want to check it out here’s the site: http://bagworld.com.au If you are planning to leave your country for an experience in Oz working and studying I’ll give you some tips,I didn’t know how to do to organize,my first month here has been really a mess,but when you figure it out and you get used to overhere’s life,all become simplier. If you want to work 3 months in a farm to get a second year working holiday student visa (be aware that you won’t be paied,but you’ll have meals and a bad for free,BUT you also have to be lucky as I haven’t been,because a lot of people you’ll work for will try to take advantage of you,and they could give you cheap or expired food,but the family I’m living now with is amazing,really gentle and pleasant,as I said,you have to be lucky)just type on facebook or google “wwoofer australia”,and you’ll find their site,in which you will be able to purchase a book with all the names of the farmers in Australia and Tasmania,all divided by region (victoria,new south wales,queensland ecc)with details of the job they need,the amount of workers they need and for how log,their address,emails and telephone numbers.The farms that allow you to get a second visa will have PP written on right down corner,at the end of the description,easy. From now on I’ll start to write both in english and italian,for my parents and my lazy friends. Da ora in poi iniziero’ a scrivere sia in inglese che in italiano,sia per i miei genitori che per i miei amici che non hanno il tempo per tradurre due righe in inglese. 
Here some photos the day before we left Sydney,we had some amazing pieces of cake and fish and chips bought in bondi beach,close to where I used to live,then we went sitting in bondi beach park,in front of the seaside and sufers,and we started throwing food to seagulls.What a cranky bastard animal it is,it would do everithing for a little piece of food. Ecco qualche foto del giorno prima che lasciassimo Sydney,abbiamo comprato del fish & chips buonissimo a bondi beach,vicino all’appartamento dove vivevo,poi siamo andati a sederci nel parco a bondi beach,di fronte alla spiaggia e ai surfisti,e abbiamo iniziato a tirare cibo ai gabbiani.Che animale incazzato e bastardo che e’,per un pezzo di cibo farebbe di tutto. 
White shepard
We have 13 white shepards running around the property,barking and playing all the day,in spite of the raining day playing with this puppies is an endless joy 🙂
We have called the only red hair one Chewbacca (like the star wars monster friend of Han Solo)
She is the fattest and the clumsiest among all the puppies!
Even if they are only one month and a half old they are getting smarter and smarter,they can even recognize their names,and sometimes they surprise you with very funny behaviours.
Music festival
Last weekend all the streets of Mullumbimby crowded by people of every age,someone was dressed in a funny way,and there were a lot of buildings in which music came through reaching the streets of Mullum.
Happiness,smiles and hippies everywhere!
Here it is the most funny bus in Australia!During the weekend you can rent this bus for all the day,and the driver won’t stop until you ask to!
“It’s full!It’s full!Full of hippies!”said the driver.
Rag doll
The funny name of that kind of cats comes from the fact that,if you pick up one grown cat or a kitten,all his legs and arms fall like the ones of a rag doll (bambola di pezza)
At the moment we have 3 kittens and 7 big cats,Mama cat included!
The face of that cat is relly stunning,it’s a pity I can’t take the photos of all the other cats,but they still are too scared too get too close to them
That kitten is the one that plays more with us,every time we enter in her pen she looks for us to play or to be petted.
Land
Yesterday I have gone to a wonderful party,organised from a woman in his huge property!We drove 5 minutes in the path of her land to reach the house!It was incredile inside,all the guests had to bring something to eat,everything was delicious.
The handle of the door is really nice,all the stuff in the house remind to buddhism.
As soon as you cross the door you see this picture in front of you,the Dalai Lama.
On the left there was the dining room,on the right the kitchen.
The owner has built her house by her own,her and his husband,as for the other little houses for ren tin the property.Built with sweat and love.
The sitting room turned on after a while,with all the guests that were able that started play an instrument in the little theatre.
Up in the sitting room there was a flag,dancing with the music.
There are two verandas,each one was full of eating guests,the landscape was breathtaking and from there we could see mount Chincogan!
During night,the owner took us with her for a walk around the house,the bathroom worths the whole house.
If you are in doubt for your life,come in australia to study,there are infinite possibilities here,for example a doctor without specialisation could earn 200.000 audollars by year!
Australia is waiting for you 🙂
Australian way
Australian people are really relaxed,they work less than us earning twice than an italian people,and twice is average
Who works in bank is covered by money,my bank opens at 9.30 am and closes at 4 pm except for fridays’ afternoons in which it closes at 5 pm..
In some works you can earn 10-12 by month if you are good enough,if u are skilled,you have studied,you work in mine or simply if u are lucky!If you study medicine here or something similar you will be very fine,trust me 🙂
Moreover everybody is soo relaxed here,some people walk with only short trousers and a shirt,with naked feets,in the centre of the town!There are things I can’t get accustomed to,like for the streets,in sidewalks and even in the swimming pool people take the left to go straight on,and the right to come back!today we have been in an open market created by farmers selling their own organic good to lower price,I’m loving my travel.
Even animal are more relaxed down there,i never have played so much with cat and dogs like now
Green tree frog
A frog has just come close to the swimming pool!They are so rare in Oz because toads kill them in order to eat.
My everyday’s present
In spite of scars,everyday’s pain,hard works,nights in which i wake up for mosquitos or bugs on my body,snakes,spiders,liches,giant flies,jumping ants that are still biting me and the sun that burns like hell even if it’s still spring,every moment spent here is still a present.
Everyone’s desire
For all the people that are still looking for their path,for the ones that already found it,and for you,that meanwhile you are reading this post,a big hug from Australia!
House boat
House Boat
That’s a house boat in a river near Mullumbimby,
that boat has been entirely constucted by an israel man that now lives inside here.
If you want to rent an apartment in this region you could pay something like 650-800 dollars by month dividing it among 3-4 people,so 160-200 dollars by week,for an house boat about 90 dollars by week.
It’s a two floor boat,in the first floor there are rooms with kitchen bedrooms and bathroom (it’s a pity I couldn’t take some photos)and in the second,that:
Front side
Back side
And here it is the dock landscape seen from up there
Around here you can rent this bus for all the day,and while the driver lead the it,you can have a party inside,get drunk and more,and the bus never stops until the time comes!
Swimming pool
Here’s how I am spending my cold november afternoon!
I’m not really missing Italy now!
Some slip,a 50+ solar protection,and a straw hat,the recipe for a happy sunny afternoon!
Lizard
In,out and around the house is full of little lizards and geckos,but the last one find better places in which they can hide
Two days ago I also saw a goanna crossing the road,what a pity I didn’t have my camera with me
If you’re interested in coming in australia and live in a house boat (really cheap) don’t miss next post
Puppies
Today one of our white Shepard has gave birth to some puppies (still giving) and yesterday night the other white Shepard gave birth to 6 lil’ puppies,here some photos
One month ago also the cat has had kittens,3 female and 1 male,they are starting to scrape and to bite,and when they start playing their nails are a finger in the ass (it’s a common use phrase overhere,I checked) but they are so nice
They run and jump and bite all the time,but when I take them right behind their neck,they suddently stop moving at all!amazing trick 🙂
We also have some young cow puppies,rosie & coco,one let you touch her every time,the other is really braveless,she runs away every time you get too close
Kangaroo
Here for you a red kangaroo nose bone,founded in the bush.It’s bigger than one of my hands!
Kookaburra
The Australian animal I love more
is not the kangaroo,
or the koala,
how banaal it would be!
It’s a little funny bird,
that laughs every time he tweet!
You can hear him from far far away!
Today I have been so lucky to meet one from so close!
He first noticed us,then we did!
We took some pieces of meet to bring him closer,
but he didn’t trust us at all!
Here is cleaning is beak,a lot funny,
most of all when he beated it several times on the brunch!
But today was windy,and the meat’s smell was too attractive!
Once he decided,he flew toward us in a rush,
taking all he was able to take!
He liked and he came twice in few minutes,grabbing with his bech and his claws
Then,once sated,he has flown away
Mullumbimby
The post you are going to read
is being written and it has been
photographed in Mullumbimby,
665 leftbank road,new south wales!
Come here to tell me ciao!
Here’s the place in which we stayed for 1 week,and in which we will have to rest for 7 more!
That’s the place in which we sleep every night!
when the sun goes down,there are a lot of creepy sounds!
That’s the place where we were supposed to sleep,but was so full of bugs and the girls didn’t want to rest there!
So it has become our wardrobe!
The house in which we get meals is twenty feet from our tent,son after being waken up we get breakfast in 30 minutes,then we start working,7 hours by day,raining ones included 🙂
The house stands right in behind our tent,and the tend is between the house and the caravan “wardrobe”
Thats the sitting room and the kitchen,that we share with two puppets,in front of this room there’s a beautiful bush landscape,behind one room and some stairs that leads to the boss bedroom
Here’s the room behind the kitchen!
And our cooking size!
That’s the landscape we see from the sitting room-kitchen!
The bathroom and the shower have been built here,300 mt from the house and 100 from our tent,but during night the creepy crawling noises of the bush take me really far from here!
