After a 24 h long journey I finally arrived in Melbourne on Saturday night. On the plane I got to fill in a standard incoming passenger card saying that I’m not bringing heroin or machine guns in to the country, and also another card to make sure that I haven’t been in Africa and gotten infected by ebola in the last 21 days.
I live in a big house with one dog and 4 very relaxed people in a suburb called East Malvern. I Haven’t gotten around to exploring the city center yet, although Russel (one of the housemates) has been kind enough to drive me around different places in the area. Today he took me to Chadstone Shopping Centre which is the biggest shopping centre in Australia. Got 3 pairs of shoes for a total of $30 (= 180 SEK) and then we ate schnitzel in a roll.
The weather here is not what I expected. I expected every day to be around 40 C, but apparently it varies a lot in Melbourne and both today and yesterday has only been about 20 C. That means I’ll probably have to go and buy myself some more cardigans since I hardly brought any, but that shouldn’t be a problem with Chadstone Shopping Centre not too far away.
I haven’t got any picture to upload at the moment, but I will upload in the next couple of days as soon as I’ve got some pictures to show you!
Cheers!
