This is time to upload some new pictures on this blog even if I’m not travelling anymore. This place where I’ve started my new job few days ago is really nice and the guys are really cool as well. I’m lucky!

Sydney (Pyrmont), Working for Twoskinnymen
Hello, after a month spent working in Neutral bay, my contract ended up. They didn’t have enough work coming in to keep me. During that time I had some more appointments but I did not succeed until today. A week ago I applied for two more jobs and this time it worked! Today I stated a new work in Pyrmont which is halfway of the previous job. The place is nice. Several small companies share spaces in that old fashion building. Then, someone contact me today about another application I made last web and some else from LinkedIn contact me for to have a chat for a permanent job. The first month was slow but now it’s getting crazy! Nice :-)
Neutral Bay, my first serious job in Australia
Neutral bay, second appointment for a job
This is the place where I had my first appointment. I didn’t take any pictures on my way because I was focused on arriving on time. I’m going to replace a French guy actually and the appointment was quite positive I think. If I get that job I will come here for 3 weeks with a chance to stay a bit longer. This is perfect for me!
Queensland > Sydney, Driving Trip, last day
Sydney > Queensland, Driving trip, second day
18 hours later… we started driving yesterday around 2pm. It’s now 8:30am and we did not reach the delivery point yet. Colin reserved a room here so we could have a sleep on our way back because we won’t have to rush this time. We have about 5 hours more driving to reach the mine and deliver the equipment they need. Why by car?
- because it’s too big to be in a plane.
- because their security process would take so much time
- and because there is no airport next to the mine so they will have to transport it by car anyway.
Sydney > Queensland, driving trip with Colin, first day
This morning I received a call from Colin the husband of Kathryn who is Beryl and Stephen’s daughter who are John and Pauline’s friends. This is why I get the connection and this job, when I can come… Yes because Colin is delivering materiel for the mine industry and he never knows when they are going to call him. The distances for the delivery are mainly very far so he needs a second driver to handle the job and drive safe otherwise driving 48h return without stopping is impossible.
