2 up

So today i'll be leaving this island i've grown to love. i've felt so much joy from the people and the natural surroundings here. i've gone on many more amazing hikes and swims seen turtles walabes and countless weirds giant bugs to name a few. i've since had two awesome flatmates (roomates) adam and adrien to hang and chat with. adam is australian artist/bartender and is in the first stage of becoming a traveller of his own country, having rarely ventured much outside sydney. adrien is an irish dj nomad who will be taking over for me in the kitchen slinging currys and chicken parmys.

my continuing journey anyway will include mikalea along with me on the bike. we've made quite a few sacrifices with our possesions to fit it all on the bike (the guitar stays though). when i met her in the first few days here, she told me of her plans after her time here as a ranger and they were very similar with my own. quite like getting the chef job here, i knew once i met her we would travel together. i'll be continuing up north to cairns and quite likely going to see the great barrier reef for the first time. this is my main goal for going up there although there will be much to see and do along the way. and now having somone to share will is quite exciting too.
