Simply cycling around
Here I am! Well, actually I’ve just been out of my first appointment. From now, I’m going to take pictures on my way home because I did not want to be late when I came, of course. The appointment was positive on one way. I won’t be selected because I did not have enough skills for the roll but I know what can I learn now. So thank you for that guys. Bondi Junction is about 40 minutes away from Newtown and there is lots of cycling paths between these tow places. Let’s go :-)
Today I’m working but this time is for john. He wants to change the little fence around the flowers and we use the wood from his old veranda. Recycling again!
This is my last day of work but I don’t know it yet. I’ve been working since the 1st of January and did not expect to stay that long. Thanks to the Indians who allowed me to work that long and save some money for the rest of my trip. The adventure is not finished of course! I’ve got a lot to see!
It’s really hot again and we came back today to the banana farm. Most farm here get blueberries, cucumbers and bananas. It used to be only banana but they make more money today working this way. And there is a big competition with Queensland where many companies started doing bananas. It’s flat so the work is easier.
Today, we finished pruning the cucumbers (take off the bottom leaves to let the sunshine penetrate) and then we moved to another farm around Woolgoolga to work few more hours.
I’m lucky! With the small relations I’ve got around me here now I had the opportunity to find a job (somebody found it for me actually). And what is it? Cucumber picking :-) haha. So I’m gonna stay a bit longer here, until I will receive my phone… I could stay for ever tho.
Hello, I’m still trying to upgrade my website and I should have a bit more time now because as it says above, I don’t have anymore work and I’m gonna explain why now.
Since a month I used to work for the cucumber’s place in the same area of the blueberries farm because they belong to the same family. Everything was fine until the day I came back to work and nobody was there. Because I used to be the firt one each morning and the rain came, I started working. This was a mistake. Then I texted Paul when the job was done but he didn’t expect me to work. But he didn’t tell me to not work as well and the previous day we started a job that we did not finished so I had no reason to think this was a day off.
After this event Paul did not contact me anymore so the next day I came up to the farm and ask to the blueberry manager if I could work. They had something for me and they enjoy my job rapidly because, as every time, I was doing my best.
