As a part of my five month trip, I've spent little over four weeks in Australia.

In November 2006 I travelled to the southern hemisphere to live and work in New Zealand and Australia for twelve months. I was in Australia for about two months, and for the rest of the year I lived in New Zealand. I had the opportunity to travel back across the tasman sea three times for short breaks when I was able to get time off work. It was a really good experience to live on the other side of the world for one year.

This will become a little Blog about my Trip to Australia in 2003.

Well who would expect to find a beer from an Austrian brewery? With the support from some Norwegian and Australian students I made a huge Austrian Dinner.  I  even got Austrian beer. Gösser is not my favorite beer in Austria, actually I ll try to avoid it. But been abroad and with a lack…

Yes it's true, I'm finally "home" again (although it's becoming less & less clear where "home" is...)Already I am missing the USA a little - mostly all my friends of course, but also all my favourite American foods...black beans (it's possible to get them here, but they're hard to find)Pumpkin …

Still haven't worked out how long it actually took due to changes of time zone and crossing the date line! Tom kindly picked us up though.

I had heard Melbourne felt a bit European, and I can see why.  Its a mix of old and new architecture styles, a very diverse community, lots of parks & gardens.  Really not TOO many landmarks - more just a city to walk around, eat & shop in.  The city square looks like it…
